    Abstract: A system for reducing product shortage durations in retail stores based on analysis of image data is provided. The system may comprise: a communication interface configured to receive image data from retail stores indicative of a product shortage of a product type relative to information describing a placement of products of a product type on a store shelf; and at least one processor configured to: analyze the image data to detect occurrences of product shortages of the product type in the retail stores and determine durations associated with the occurrences; identify a common factor contributing to the duration of part of the occurrences of the product shortages; determine an action, associated with the at least one common factor, for potentially reducing product shortage durations of future shortages of the product type in the retail stores; and provide information associated with the identified action to an entity.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of image processing comprising: obtaining by an imaging device a low resolution version and a high resolution version of a retail image, the high resolution version of the retail image being a temporary file to be erased automatically after a predetermined time period; transmitting to a server the low resolution version of the retail image; upon receipt of a request from the server, the request including data representative of a contour of an unidentified item in the low resolution version of the retail image, cropping a high resolution item image from the high resolution version of the retail image, the high resolution item image corresponding to the contour of the unidentified item; and transmitting the high resolution item image to the server thereby enabling updating an item database.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for providing information on electronic visual displays in retail stores. In one implementation, a door for a retail storage container may include one or more electronic visual displays. In one implementation, the electronic visual display may be connected to a shelf in the retail store. In one implementation, an image of products in a retail store captured using at least one image sensor may be obtained, and the image may be analyzed to determine a condition of products of a particular product type. Further, based on the determined condition of the products of the particular product type, at least one display parameter may be selected for a particular item, and the selected at least one display parameter may be used to display the particular item on an electronic visual display in the retail store.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for processing images captured in a retail store and automatically identifying a product shortage are provided. In one implementation, a system may access information describing a desired placement of products on at least one store shelf. The system may analyze a first image captured at a first time to determine that a first quantity of products exceeds a quantity threshold. The system may analyze a second image captured at a second time later than the first time to determine that a second quantity of products is below the quantity threshold. The system may avoid initiating an unscheduled action to cause restocking until a third time later than the second time. Based on a determination that a third quantity of products at the third time are below the quantity threshold, the system may provide information indicative of a product shortage.
