There has been much interest in replacing traditional information supports with more\ntechnological solutions in recent years. New technologies which allow paper-like perception\nwith minimal power needs have emerged as low-power wireless scenarios. A priority for these\nnew supports is to create the architecture for a scalable solution which maintains minimal power\nrequirements. The retail industry demands a new information infrastructure that improves customer\nand employee satisfaction. In this work, authors propose an information provision architecture based\non E-Paper and carry out an experiment where different smart labeling architectures based on Paper,\nE-Paper, LED liquid crystal display (LCD) and Dot-matrix LCD were tested in order to determine\nwhich is best suited for a real labeling environment. Enclosed in a research project called SMARKET,\nthe authors pilot-tested the work in a real supermarket, having the opportunity to survey employees\nand customers about satisfaction and frustration with the use of the architectures proposed in this\nresearch work.
