For example, Amazon could allow customers to &#8220;try on&#8221; clothes or furniture in VR before they buy them. Amazon could also use VR to create virtual stores where customers can browse and purchase products.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color: #293462;\"><em><strong>Internet of Things:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">IoT devices can collect data about customer behavior and preferences.
