PARIS and IRVING, Texas, Nov. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Atos, a global leader in digital transformation, today announced a multi-year contract with Triple Five Group to serve as a key technology provider and build and manage a smart IT experience using Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions for American Dream, a three million-square foot entertainment and retail complex in East Rutherford, NJ.

Atos and American Dream have bridged the gap between physical and digital experience for customers and more than 400 tenants by incorporating edge-computing, IT devices, smart parking, ticketing and wayfinding technologies. Multiple sensors and Bluetooth-enabled beacons will allow customers to experience modern navigation, from quickly finding an open parking spot in proximity of their chosen store to accessing way finding directions between two select experiences within the mall.

American Dream guests will be provided real-time updates for customizable experiences, interactive maps and seamless social media integration.

"American Dream is the evolution of brick-and-mortar retail. Experiential retail, world-class entertainment and digital integrations are the differentiating factors between the traditional retail model and the future of physical and omni-channel retail. The technology that Atos and American Dream are implementing is a paradigm shift into an unparalleled digital entertainment and shopping experience for those who visit," said Jeff Sheckter, Chief Operating Officer and General Manager, American Dream. "American Dream has set the new standard in customer experience, one that can adapt and keep pace with customers' growing expectations to be digitally connected throughout their visit. From getting to the property, navigating all the amazing elements throughout the project, sharing these experiences with their friends and family, and getting back home as efficiently as possible."

"Every area of American Dream will be mapped out for the customer with considerate IT accommodations that enhance their visit with ease and accessibility," said Karan Chetal, Vice President, Head of Transportation and Hospitality Strategic Engagements, Atos North America.
