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.

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.

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.
So it's completely free subject to the conceive them and actually -- have had to pump than what reduce -- -- reach out the rest with the recent so.
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.

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