In this paper, we proposed the store monitoring system using smart hanger. This system consists of smart hanger, server, and wireless communication module. The smart hanger consists of LCD, MCU, RF module. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed smart hanger, we performed the experiment. This smart hanger can be used for shopping mall to increase sales.

According to popularization of smart phones, we can easily see the QR code attached to products. Restaurants also provide customers with store information using QR code. Sixteen years have passed since QR code was developed. In Korea, QR code has been widely utilized in the field of marketing because of easiness of technique implementation and channel expansion to mobile. However, to recognize QR code, we should run the proper application and focus on it during loading time. To address this problem, this paper proposes the app to manage store information using NFC technology. The proposed app saves easily store information through the name card of a store and facilitates its management obtained by a smart phone.

Smart phone environment have an effect on consumer life style, as well as advances in technology. In this paradigm shift on digital convergence make change to commodities, services, and distribution channels for consumers. HomePlus wholesale that is representative distribution company in Korea launched the new distribution channel model that combined off-line store with online store and mobile shopping system called 'smart mobile virtual store'. That is highly praised by abroad media and festivals. This study is an exploratory study on consumer-centric smart mobile virtual store of HomePlus. There are value and chance for developing the new digital distribution model, in this study, because the case study and evaluation of consumers is important in this momentous time.

In this paper, we propose a new smart ordering application system for granting the customer numbers. The proposed system assigns sequence number of customers who visit at offline store as using speaker and microphone of smart device. This system has more advantage than the existing ordering system. Because the proposed system does not need any customer information like as phone number or SNS ID, it can protect customer privacy information. In this system, we use high frequency which is inaudible to the human ear as communication signal between speaker and microphone. To confirm performance evaluation, we perform a test with ten smart devices like as iPhone 6, 7, 8, Galaxy s8 and the result shown a success rate of 98.7 percent. Therefore, the proposed system can be useful service technology at the various offline store which need to assign a sequence number for customers, because many customers visit at the store.

An IoT-based server system for store management was developed in this study. Its client-server structure having a product categorization function allows the system to read the NFC tags attached to individual products and provides information about them to customers automatically. The system also provides an effective promotional effect as it not only offers necessary information about the items the customers are seeking but also displays the advertisements related to them. This server system was designed specifically designed for the use in a smart shopping Mall or a department store so that the store owners can manage their sales operation more effectively while their customers enjoy shopping more conveniently. It is expected that the technology used for this IoT-utilized server system can be one of the efficient and effective platform technologies in the current and future store management systems.

As knowledge-based society comes to the fore, sharing knowledge becomes a hot issue. Among various types of knowledge, a significance of software(applications) and contents is a huge in a current society. Moreover, along with appearance of smartphone, for instance iPhone, Application Store(also known as AppStore) utilized as a common gateway for sharing software and contents, brings a big interest for many users and developers. However, prior research to understand users' behavior on AppStore has been a scant. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of key smart service environmental factors on AppStore in order to empirically explain users' psychological feelings of intention to use AppStore. Based on a well-known technology adoption model, TAM, the study incorporates three main characteristics(user, society, and service) with six constructs(Innovation, Enjoyment, Subjective Norm, Information Level, Content variety, and Cost), influencing perceived usefulness, which then affects users' intention to use AppStore. Results provide evidence that support the tested hypotheses. The implications of the findings suggest a new theoretical work for future AppStore research and offers suggestions that the researchers and practitioners of AppStore should consider regarding the development of application and contents.

Smart Factories could be regarded as a result of the integration of various key technologies of the fourth industrial revolutions. In smart factory, the IoT (Internet of things) is applied to capture the data generated by the production facility, store and analyze data generated in real time using Big Data technology. In addition, 3D printers are used to print expensive and complex parts, industrial robots supply materials and parts to the production site, store finished products in warehouses. In this paper, we introduced the definition of smart factory and change of job market. Also, we summarize several national policies to support enhancing transformation process of smart factory.

Digital signage in a smart store would engage and invoke responses from consumers because good in-store experiences are more important than ever. Thus, the present study investigates consumer perceptions of interactive digital signage integrating technology acceptance model. Specifically, the current study examined 1) the effects of personal and fashion innovativeness on interactivity; 2) the effect of interactivity on perceived usefulness, ease of use, and enjoyment; and 3) the effects of perceived usefulness, ease of use, and enjoyment on intentions to use the products and the store, visit the store, and engage in word-of-mouth. As a pre-study, two researchers visited the smart stores of six brands in Seoul, all of which integrate various technologies in the fashion field. A video clip was developed as a stimulus to the study. A total of 214 responses were gathered and analyzed. The results were as follows. Personal innovativeness has a significantly positive effect on interactivity, whereas fashion innovativeness has no significant effect. Interactivity had positive effects on the perceived usefulness, ease of use, and enjoyment. Consumer responses (i.e., intentions to use, visit, and engage in word-of-mouth) were predicted by usefulness and enjoyment, but not by ease of use. The findings of this study could provide the fashion industry and retailers practical and valuable insights into enhancing consumers' in-store experiences through the use of interactive digital signage.
