Innovative Ideas for Retail - Smart Fitting Room

SAP is well known as a German multinational software corporation that makes enterprise software to manage business operations and customer relations but we do much more. For instance innovative applications for the cloud and retail like the Smart Fitting Room - we develop it together with Hybris which is a subsidiary of SAP.



Smart Fitting Room is specially designed for fitting rooms at retail stores. It uses RFID technology and a touch screen to improve the customer shopping experience at retail stores.

By RFID it detects the clothes’ tags taken by customers into each fitting room. This information is displayed on an UI in the fitting room. This touch screen interface allows the customer to get more information about the product he took in to the fitting room – allows him to ask for another size or color or an additional fitting product without leaving the fitting room, and by recommending complementary products for cross-selling purposes.
