The software produces web-based 3D representations of retail environments that research participants can explore, allowing concepts to be trialled and tweaked ahead of a live roll-out.

IMI’s senior vice president of strategic marketing Larry Wolfson said the virtual shopping platform would be offered through IMI’s InVision Retail Science Lab.
