Amazon's new black and green shopping cart may not look that different from the carts you find in other grocery stores, but there is more beneath the smooth plastic surface. The new smart shopping cart, called Amazon Dash Cart, automatically detects items with sensors, cameras and computer vision algorithms. It allows customers to skip the checkout line in a physical store by charging the credit cards attached to their Amazon accounts.

When customers walk up to the front door of The Beguiling, a comic-book shop in Toronto, they're greeted by a yellow booth that blocks the entrance. It reads, "Bibliographic Help 5¢". Here, an employee dispenses pick-up orders, answers questions and recommends titles.
The counter is a play on Lucy's iconic psychiatry booth from the Peanutscomic strip. It was the first image that came to owner Peter Birkemoe when he began considering how to safely start reopening amid the pandemic. While online sales have kept the business afloat since Canadian lockdowns began in March, many local customers prefer to pick up their orders from the store, explains Birkemoe.
