Conference highlights include the Wave & Win program which demonstrates how RFID, self-service kiosks, wireless technology, and loyalty cards can be integrated to create an exciting customer experience, according to a news release.

Because supermarkets face certain unique technology and business challenges, Retail Systems 2005 is also launching a Supermarket Futures Workshop and conference track.
