Sensormatic Solutions and Intel Corporation will collaborate to deliver scalable, AI-powered solutions for retailers. Moving forward, Sensormatic’s artificial intelligence portfolio at the edge will be based on Intel® platforms. Sensormatic will also leverage Intel Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit as well as Intel models for delivering its solutions.
This collaboration is featured at NRF 2020: Retail’s Big Show at Jacob Javits Convention Center in New York City. Among many other innovative technologies, the companies will showcase the Computer Vision Platform, which leverages Intel OpenVINO and the Sensormatic Smart Hub and Artificial Intelligence Camera developed collaboratively with Intel for the edge.
AI Vision Intelligence—The AI Vision Intelligence demo will show how to drive targeted behavior to improve store operations and shopper experience. It encompasses deep learning models, image processing and the AI camera developed with Intel to assess associates’ responsiveness to customers and measure how customers interact with merchandise and more.
Shopper Engagement—The Shopper Engagement demo is intended to help provide actionable insights regarding shopper behaviors along the shopping journey. Combined with the AI camera developed collaboratively with Intel, Sensormatic technology enables retailers to gain real-time visibility and predictive analytics for accurate decision making. The solution will provide real-time information regarding inventory levels dropping below defined goals, out-of-stock conditions by SKU, and shoppers’ viewing and interactions with merchandise.
“The retail industry continues to evolve, and our collaboration with Intel will help us take on the industry’s biggest challenges,” said Subramanian Kunchithapatham, vice president of engineering for Sensormatic. “The collaboration will allow us to deliver smart, connected, and scalable solutions that allow retailers to gain real-time insights into inventory, shoppers, associates, and the retail environment throughout the entire customer journey.”
