Intelligent Store Management of Huawei Retail Stores

Background

This picture shows you inside Huawei’s first of many high-end retail shops in China, providing a unique immersive experience. The innovative retail space covers an area of 800 square meters.

Challenges

Huawei’s newest retail shopping area is quite large, with a range of valuable products proudly on display. Opening and closing the shop takes a quite long time.

The space itself is hard to rearrange, so it is quite a task to create a superb shopping experience for customers.

Security during non-business hours requires state-of-the art protection, and emergencies must be responded to quickly.

Other shops are expected to be located in different places, and the operating status of large power devices is not always unknown in advance.

Solution

Huawei’s retail shop utilizes several of Huawei’s Enterprise products and solutions in order to showcase the retail items, such as a cloud-based system with sensors interconnected to an Internet of Things (IoT) management infrastructure. These products and solutions provide the following:

Intelligent temperature adjustment is possible, which also controls 38 fan coil units.

Intelligent brightness adjustment now controls the store’s lighting and five-meter high French doors.

All display screens within a store can be powered on with just one click.

The shop’s valuable retail products are protected by a night intrusion detection system, dynamic onsite cameras, and other measures for comprehensive store protection.

Centralized Operations and Maintenance (O&M) of network devices assist in making sure the room temperature inside the facilities is comfortable for shoppers and that the doors can be automatically managed.

Benefits

All of these intelligent features ensure the most superb shopping experience for customers, which is also environment-friendly with greener energy-savings. The stores are protected 24/7.

With a cloud solution, any security incidents and electrical abnormalities are handled immediately. Huawei’s cloud-based network and IoT management improves work efficiency and reduces operational costs for the retail spaces.
