Lenovo has opened an unmanned convenience store in China, using it as a testbed for trialling facial-recognition, e-payment, Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and augmented reality (AR) technologies, with its tablets acting as the staffers of the store.

The Lenovo Lecoo Unmanned Store is located at the tech company's campus in Beijing, with VP of Research and Technology Daryl Cromer saying Lenovo can learn "everything" from the trial.

"Shopping at the store is quite simple. You walk up to the door, cameras recognise your face, you browse the aisles, pick out what you want as usual, then -- and here's the magic -- you just walk out, and your account is automatically settled via your mobile payment," Lenovo explained.
