Walmart is investing in San Diego-based Wiliot to deploy smart sensors in its massive supply chain, utilizing Internet-of-Things technology that has been around for two decades.
The deal, announced earlier this month, is the largest deployment of ambient IoT in the retail sector, with millions of battery-free IoT sensors developed by Wiliot.
- Walmart will be able to retrieve the real-time location of merchandise in its 4,600 stores by the end of 2026.
