With the rise of e-commerce as an alternative to traditional brick-and-mortar retail, companies are adapting their own innovations around artificial intelligence and computer vision to meet new demands from customers and the modern supply chain. Technology plays a key role in the current environment of online shopping, enabling online retailers to gain greater understanding of their customers through data acquired from their browsing and purchasing habits. Today, when consumers shop in brick-and-mortar stores, they expect the same personalized and responsive service they receive online. In order to help retail customers achieve that level of service, Advantech deploys a combination of hardware and software: cameras, AI deep learning video analysis technology, and Intel® Vision Accelerator Design products.
