Retail Watch combines Trax’s retail computer vision and machine learning capabilities with its proprietary Internet of Things-enabled shelf-edge cameras, ceiling-mounted dome cameras and in-store robots. Retail Watch provides retailers with ‘eyes in the store’ – automated, accurate and continuous visibility of every product, on every shelf, in every aisle, in every store. Armed with this automated stream of real-time shelf data, retailers can discover and fix on-shelf availability gaps, replace manual tasks like price and gap checks, and drive sales uplift from improved availability and store execution standards.

Ignacio Moreno Martín, director Retail & Consumer at Deloitte Digital, said, “Digitization of in-store processes is crucial for the future retailer. Trax’s Retail Watch solution provides several major benefits. For example, it raises store productivity by reducing time spent on product replacement and inventory count planification. It also optimizes order-picking for online orders and drives sales uplift by helping store staff quickly and efficiently verify that goods are placed in the right position on the shelf.”

This will have a positive effect on their revenue streams and ultimately the end-shopper experience.”
