Real-Time Object Detection
The FastLaner® uses AI-based scanning and revolutionizes the shopping process.
-
Real-Time Object Detection
AI detects whether an object is placed into or removed from the trolley. This makes interactions traceable and enables customer assistance during shopping. -
Detection of Anomalies
In addition to object detection, suspicious behavior can be inferred from the AI results, such as camera obstructions. Additionally, missed product scans can be identified. -
Advanced Solution Without Handheld Scanner
In a more advanced solution, the handheld scanner becomes obsolete. AI reads barcodes via camera, so the system always knows which products are currently in the cart.
AI automatically detects
the held product and its
barcode via camera.
This starts the
digital product capture.
2. Product in shopping trolley
The recognised product
is placed in the trolley
and remains clearly
identifiable. The AI
knows which product
was added.
missing barcode
several products are
recognised at once.
The new product currently
has no visible barcode.
The barcode of the new
product is visible.
The AI scans it and clearly
assigns the product via
the barcode.
5. Many products, reliable
assignment
Even with many products
in the trolley, the AI reliably
detects and tracks each
individual item.
