    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for retail environments. In one implementation, a non transitory computer-readable medium may include instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform a method. The method may include receiving, from first sensors first sensed data indicating selection of a first product by a customer; determining, from the first sensed data, a first property associated with the first product; issuing a first query to the customer regarding the first property and, in response, receiving first information from the customer; comparing the first information with the first property; determining, based on the comparison, an integrity indicator associated with the customer; receiving, from second sensors second sensed data indicating a selection of a second product by the customer; determining, based on the integrity indicator, at least one action to determine a second property associated with the second product; and initiating the at least one action.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for controlling a detail level of shopping data provided to frictionless shoppers. In one implementation, a method may comprise: receiving image data captured using one or more image sensors in a retail store; analyzing the image data to detect a shopper in the retail store; determining a likelihood that the shopper will be involved in shoplifting; controlling a detail level associated with frictionless shopping data provided to the shopper based on the determined likelihood that the shopper will be involved in shoplifting.

    Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium includes instructions, when executed by a processor, causing the processor to perform a method for reacting to changes of items hanging on peg-hooks connected to pegboards. The method may include: determining a location of a store shelf within a retail store; obtaining a first coverage parameter corresponding to a first product type and a second coverage parameter corresponding to a second product type; accessing a database to determine a first height of products of the first product type and a second height of products of the second product type; determining a position for placing a camera configured to capture images of at least a portion of the store shelf by analyzing the location of the store shelf, the first coverage parameter, the second coverage parameter, the first height, and the second height; and providing, to a user interface of a user device, information relating to the determined position of the camera.

    Abstract: A system for determining whether shoppers are eligible for frictionless checkout is disclosed. The system has a processor that obtains image data captured using image sensors positioned in a retail store. The processor analyzes the image data to identify at least one shopper at one or more locations of the retail store. The processor detects, based on the analysis of the image data, at least one product interaction event associated with an action of the at least one shopper at the one or more locations of the retail store. Further, based on the detected at least one product interaction event, the processor determines whether the at least one shopper is eligible for frictionless checkout. In response to a determination that the at least one shopper is ineligible for frictionless checkout, the processor causes delivery of an indicator that the at least one shopper is ineligible for frictionless checkout.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for retail environments. In one implementation, a non transitory computer-readable medium may include instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform a method. The method may include receiving camera location information associated with a plurality of cameras deployed in a retail store, the camera location information being indicative of an actual position of each camera of the plurality of cameras; receiving, for each camera of the plurality of cameras, at least one camera status indicator; using the received camera location information and the received camera status indicators to generate a digital signal; and providing the generated digital signal to an extended reality device to thereby cause the extended reality device to display a visual representation of the at least one status indicator for each camera of the plurality of cameras relative to the actual position of the camera in the retail store.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for retail environments. In one implementation, a non-transitory computer-readable medium may include instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform a method. The method may include obtaining an electronic shopping list associated with a customer, the electronic shopping list identifying a target product; automatically determining that the target product is unavailable at a particular retail store; automatically identify an alternative product, available at the particular retail store, as a potential alternative to the target product; receiving at least one image representative of at least a portion of the particular retail store wherein the at least one image includes a representation of the alternative product; and analyzing the at least one image to cause an extended reality appliance to present to a shopper a visual indicator associated with the alternative product in the particular retail store.

    Abstract: A system for updating virtual shopping carts of shoppers with pay-by-weight products is disclosed. The system has a processor that receive images captured by image sensors. The images depict product interactions between a store associate and shoppers. Each product interaction involves a pay by weight product. The processor analyzes the images to identify the product interactions and associates the pay by weight product involved with each product interaction with a particular shopper among the shoppers. The processor provides a notification to the store associate requesting supplemental information for associating the pay by weight product with the particular shopper. The processor receives the requested supplemental information and uses the analysis of the images and the requested supplemental information to determine the association of the pay by weight product with the particular shopper. The processor also updates a virtual shopping cart of the particular shopper with the pay by weight product.
