Let's listen give mentally Liz -- live in San Francisco for about three days in the valley but for -- stuff out there.

May mean never having to -- have a return of full again sounds good to me was.

Thanks very serious shopping online -- commercial breaks again.

I doubt -- about the debt that upward -- it here we are at the Intel developers form a segment really -- if the -- dead this is a gesture.

Idea that Intel is working on here and as you can see -- -- -- up to the screen you can see it.

You just click on everything that you need to do simply by using hand gestures and that leads us to our next start -- company and it involves.

Body mapping scanning it's almost like a nice set way to gestures and I want to introduce you to -- -- to cataloging good to see you institute -- is the co-founder.

And ahead of a company called body metrics -- -- are you gonna have to return any clothes anymore tell us what body metrics that's for the shopping experience.

So what you can do is -- -- to still like in Bloomingdale's and and hot -- -- step into -- body metrics upon what we do is he's got your body within about five seconds we get a whole bunch of crimes and measurements from that.

And we actually been matched the accident jeans that -- you I think up.

So no more trying -- eleven pairs of jeans are you kidding me.

The product that -- I.

I think we can sort of cut that down to like you don't wanna ask you had some really -- as is that you know it's it's have you know finding do you think that -- -- -- painful process.

And here we really you know cut -- down to the.

The time spent you're already have met in the London store called self for just -- now in your first store here Bloomingdale's and Palo -- when do you expect a major rollout of this and are you getting customers.

Who are willing to step into this.

-- Make -- black just under warehouse as part about it itself what what happens that you step into the pot and that's me you it's a secure environment than you.

I -- the on the laugh because otherwise you won't get the measurements that's.

But you won't see an excellent comments that -- and then and then very quickly then you can actually have your profile your -- metrics that counts.

That have been used I didn't stop shopping and still watch -- and you go on line.

You tell us feedback has been great -- people out you know.

Using it you know very and at a very high rates and you make that direct correlation with sales are there more sales because people are finding them.

Right fit more quickly.

Absolutely I mean we've test of this technology and got like three year track grip on himself -- -- in London.

Where we have one of the highest sales left -- that's the Kentucky Nashville Freetown.

And we account for about 20% of all the cheese sold that's an out and -- trying to replicate.

That's subtle level off of sales increased in in the -- to have an action for online sales there perhaps would be fewer returns of returns right now are running about twenty to 30% so that would save those companies money do you get paid by the retailer.

Where the customer.

We know -- get paid to you know keep the sales increase.

And accidentally.

One of the key drivers is to reduce returns because people sit up about some of the sounds -- up.

Brooks Brothers does this in some of its stores of itself.

Way of doing it reality -- a company that's had a lot of -- how do you get more widespread adoption.

Well I think that you know this -- people have tried for like -- 1015 years to try and practice problem and it's a very hot problem but I think you know from from what we -- we probably have one of the longest about running.

Examples up.

And actually running a very profitable business in this area.

So I think you know we've not come to point that we can roll this out.

And I think you know we have -- for the track record than most people in the.
