LPRC INNOVATE Building
The LPRC has launched the LPRC INNOVATE Building – a hub of fully equipped research labs to help craft the retail environment of the future connected to partnering retail stores. We focus our attention on our five Centers of Excellence: On-Shelf Availability, Smart Transactions, Safety & Security, Connected Enterprises, and People & Performance.
The LPRC’s security operations control center integrates many of our installed solutions and integrations providing unparalleled capabilities for research, testing, and learning.
The first step in your strategic innovation process. An adaptable space to encourage creativity and empathy for the specific needs of your challenges – we strive to unlock the potential of your ideas through design.
In the lab – or from afar – our projection room connects visual representations to research tools, such as virtual reality and pupil tracking software, to test your hypotheses. We can pull from an expansive list of assets to create the scenario you need to measure.
A dynamic workshop to transform ideas, simulations, and virtual components into reality. We provide the tools & technology- use them to build, destroy, and everything in between.
An artificial store environment to integrate, test, and explore your physical solutions and prototypes. The Engagement Lab is also home to our Thought Leadership Hub, a collection of Interactive Kiosks that will teach our visitors theories and methods utilized in our research process.
