亚马逊开了自动商店，竟一个人都没有？！

The first Amazon Go store has finally opened in Seattle . With new cashierless technology, app-based billing, and more, it's certainly different from what shoppers are used to. Here’s everything you need to know about what Amazon Go has in store for you:

亚马逊第一家自动商店终于在西雅图开业了。它拥有不需要收银员的新技术，可以通过应用软件结账，还具备其他功能，肯定与顾客以前光顾的商店不同。至于亚马逊自动商店能为你提供什么，以下是你需要了解的全部信息：

It's app-based

它是以应用软件为基础的。

The Amazon Go store's entrance features a row of electronic gates, similar to a subway station. To enter, you need a smartphone with the store’s app, which you scan at the gate to enter. And when you leave the Amazon store, you’re billed not by a cashier, but by the app, a few minutes after you’ve already exited.

亚马逊自动商店的入口处有一排电子门，类似于地铁站里的电子门。如果你要进店，你需要有一部智能手机，而且手机里需要安装该店铺的应用软件，这样你就可以在门口扫码进店了。当你离开该店铺的时候，不会有收银员为你结账，但该应用软件会在你离开商店的几分钟之后为你结账。

It's a convenience store, plus Whole Foods

它具有便利店和Whole Foods超市的功能。

The 1,800 square foot Amazon Go Seattle store features both classic convenience store items like chips, soda, condiments, and beer, and Whole Foods staples like salads, prepared meals, sandwiches, and baked goods like muffins and cookies.

西雅图的这家1800平方英尺的亚马逊自动商店既可以出售传统便利店中的薯片、苏打水、调味品和啤酒，也可以出售Whole Foods超市中的沙拉、预制食品、三明治以及像松饼和曲奇这样的烘焙食品。

No cashiers, registers, or shopping carts

它没有收银员、储物柜或购物车。

The Amazon grocery store has no cashiers, no registers , and no actual checkout process. Instead, you simply put whatever you’re going to buy into your bag, and leave the store when you’re done. To facilitate the Amazon Go cashierless store experience, each product you put in your bag will also be placed on your online Amazon shopping cart, and removed when you take it out.

亚马逊杂货店里没有收银员和储物柜，也没有实际的结账流程。你只需把要买的东西放到包里，选好后离开就可以了。为了提高亚马逊无收银员商店的购物体验，你放到包里的每件商品也会同步到你的在线购物车里。当你放回商品时，它也会从你的在线购物车中移除。

There are still staff

店里还会有职员。

Even without cashiers, the Amazon Go store still uses employees to restock shelves, help customers deal with technical problems, assist in finding items, and check ID's in the store's beer and wine section.

虽然没有收银员，但亚马逊自动商店里还会有员工负责补货、帮助顾客解决技术问题、协助顾客寻找商品，以及在啤酒和葡萄酒区核对顾客的身份信息（是否已满18周岁）。

You can't steal

你无法偷窃。

Shoplifting seems just about impossible here, because Amazon is watching with arrays of hundreds of small cameras above store shelves. The cameras are able to analyze what items you’re putting in and taking out of the bag, which should make things convenient, provided you're okay with hundreds of cameras analyzing your every move through the store.

在这里，入店行窃看上去几乎是不可能的，因为在店铺的各排货架上方，亚马逊安装了上百个小型摄像头。这些摄像头能够分析你把哪些物品放入包内或放回货架，而这会使一切变得十分便利，倘若你可以接受店铺中有上百个摄像头分析你的每一个举动。

The future of Amazon Go store is unclear

亚马逊自动商店的未来尚不明确。

Amazon won’t say whether it plans to make more Amazon Go locations, or license its technology to other stores, so this could potentially be a one-off. The company does say it has no plans to use the system at Whole Foods though, so don’t get you’re your hopes up on that front.

亚马逊公司并没有指明它是否计划在更多地区建自动商店，或是把这项技术授权给其他商店，所以这可能是唯一的一家店铺。该公司确实表示它并不打算在Whole Foods超市中使用该系统，所以不要把希望寄托在这之上。
