Improve shopping experience and automate retailers’ efficiency
Product Recognition Solutions
Computer vision-based product recognition solutions are primarily employed in the retail sector, with a specific emphasis on customised solutions designed to detect and categorise items displayed on store shelves. These applications are commonly used for analysing planograms and facilitating automated checkout processes.
Planogram compliance
Utilising cameras and mobile phones with computer vision-powered applications to analyse planograms and ensure adherence to the store’s strategy represents another move toward digitising the retail environment.
Automated checkout
Automated computer vision-powered systems improve the shopping experience by reducing waiting times, enhancing convenience for customers, and decreasing costs on the retailers’ side.
Store stock audit
Store stock audits empowered by computer vision streamline and enhance the process of inventory management, providing real-time insights into stock levels and discrepancies.

Key prerequisites for implementing Product Recognition Solutions
Data quality
Just like with many other artificial intelligence and machine learning applications, the success of product recognition solutions is intricately linked to the quantity and quality of the data used during the model training phase.
Technology selection
When it comes to recognizing specific image classes, data quality, and various other factors, more technological options are at our disposal. Our responsibility lies in evaluating and choosing the right technology mix.
Data annotations
Expectations
Management of the expectations and proceeding step-by-step improves the overall satisfaction with the project development and implementation.

Recognizing your specific challenges and clearly outlining the goals we intend to achieve through our computer vision-powered solution is a vital and crucial first step in our collaboration.
Whether you possess in-house data or intend to employ existing datasets, following an understanding of your business objectives, the first step involves data exploration and the thorough assessment of data quality, consistency, and annotations.
Manual model training, conducted using the previously collected and refined data, yields certain outcomes. Following an evaluation of these results, we may need to iterate through this process several times before achieving the desired levels of accuracy, reliability, and solution stability.
Defining an acceptable level of accuracy, addressing edge cases, and determining the time and budget allocated for refining the model and data to attain optimal results are critical considerations. These aspects should be clearly outlined as benchmarks and metrics following their assessment in each iteration.
The evaluation of iterations, guided by established metrics, continues until the predetermined goals are met. Once these objectives are achieved, the solution is deemed ready for deployment and can be automated through an MLOps approach.
Challenges we solve
Inaccurate inventory management often leads to stock discrepancies, overstocking, or stockouts, which affect sales and customer trust.
Manual and disjointed operational processes that slow down business activities.
Lack of market insights to understand market trends, customer preferences, and product performance.
