Five Elements Robotics Announces the Launch of DASH, the Robotic Shopping Cart
The Future of Shopping is Here!
Five Elements Robotics announces the launch of the Dash Robotic Shopping Cart. The Dash Robotic Shopping cart is a fully autonomous cart designed to efficiently lead customers through the store. Equipped with a shopping list that the customer inputs, Dashs autonomous navigation and planning software safely and efficiently leads the customer through the store.
The Dash Robotic Shopping cart will help increase revenues for store owners by ensuring that the customer gets what they came for. As an added benefit to increase sales, historical and current purchase data can be used by the store owner to provide targeted advertising on the Dash Display. Retailers can also program key waypoints for featured displays and promotions so that the Dash cart brings the shoppers to these targeted displays. The end result is increased the customer basket size (i.e. purchases per visit) and greater customer loyalty.
Key Features of the Dash Robotic Shopping Cart include:
Customizable, intuitive user interface
Checkout on-board to pay for items in the cart using credit cards, Apple Pay or Google Wallet
After payment, the cart takes the customers items to their car then returns itself to the store, ready for the next customer
Available integration with existing shopping apps and point-of-sale systems
Integrated security and loss prevention features to reduce and prevent theft and fraud, plus ability to integrate with the stores security system
Included Docking Station for Automatic Recharging
"The Dash Robotic Shopping cart will absolutely transform the way we do shopping. Once these robots are in the stores, we will not be able to imagine how we ever shopped without them", says CEO Wendy Roberts.

Featured Product

The piCOBOT Electric vacuum generator
Fully electric, slim design and absence of air-tubing and cabling. The new piCOBOT® Electric heads towards another success for Piab's piCOBOT® program. A secondary effect of these achievements is the absence of entangling air tubing and cabling. It simplifies the installation, and as the new piCOBOT® Electric only needs a single connection on the cobot arm, the clean set-up allows a completely unrestricted movement. The new piCOBOT® Electric package will contain plug & play software to fit UR e-series cobots, but many other useful adaptations will be introduced in the coming year
