A British couple was left amazed by a unique shopping experience at a store in Goa. Liam and Dani Cross, who run the YouTube channel Travel With The Crosses, shared a video showcasing an innovative changing room setup they hadn’t encountered even in London, Dubai, or New York.
Changing Room That Tracks What You Carry
The couple visited the Azorte store in South Goa, where Liam picked up three clothing items and walked into the trial room. As soon as he entered, a screen behind him displayed all three items along with their sizes.
“Look how from the future these changing rooms are,” Dani said while recording the moment.
Touchscreen Features
In the video, Dani explained how the smart mirror detected the items automatically. If a different size was needed, all it took was a tap on the screen to place a request.
“The mirror there picks up everything. And then, say you want another size, you can choose one and ask them to bring it,” she said. The screen also suggested clothing combinations and allowed users to ask the staff to bring those to try out.
“How cool is that? How amazing is that? India’s in the future man,” Dani remarked.
“THIS IS NOT IN DUBAI, THIS IS NOT IN LONDON, THIS IS NOT IN NEW YORK… This is INDIA. I’m sorry, but India?! Third world who?! This is better than shopping in Wales!! Back where the salesman “goes to the back” to check if they have your size… when clearly they leave the room scroll on TikTok for a minute, then come back empty-handed. Gotta give it to India for the shopping experience,” the couple wrote in the caption.
Online Response
The video gathered nearly four lakh views. Many appreciated the couple for showing a different side of India.
One user commented, “Good to see someone who’s showing the positive side of India.”
Another added, “Thanks for showing the cool side of India, unlike other western travellers who just show slums and poverty!”
“This is amazing! Every changing room everywhere should have this!” someone expressed.
“Omg, this is the coolest thing. Initially, I was like ooh fancy, could be Dubai/London/US etc., and then I read the caption and you said India, and I was like daaaaaamn, and then you said Goa, and I said WTF!!! I’m from Goa and this was so so cool! So glad you guys are loving Goa!” a person exclaimed.
The mirror inside the changing rooms at Reliance Retail’s Azorte stores uses RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, which helps detect products as soon as they come within approximately 10 meters of the installed sensor, according to Cashify.
