Goods Checker is expanding what it can do with surveillance cameras. Working with AVS Services, we’ve brought new cafe locations in medical facilities and universities online. The solution automatically spots empty spaces on shelves even with constantly changing ready-to-eat assortments and sends staff notifications when products need restocking.
For high-traffic locations with short sales windows — such as hospitals and universities — it’s critical to maximize ready-to-eat sales during peak hours. Automated shelf monitoring keeps displays stocked during peak times, frees staff from manual checking, and lets them focus on guest service. Analytics on peak sales times and restocking patterns help clients more accurately plan production and purchasing. This reduces write-off losses and maintains a stable, predictable, and high level of service.
“We’re excited that our partnership with AVS Services is reaching a new level. We’re not only increasing the number of connected points of sale, but also deploying Goods Checker across different formats — from standard cafes to locations in medical facilities and universities. These locations have stricter requirements for product availability and service speed, so automated shelf monitoring helps our clients increase sales without additional staff workload.”
To recap, Goods Checker is already successfully used for display control and product availability monitoring in supermarkets, convenience stores, pharmacies, gas stations, cafes, and restaurants. Supporting retail locations in hospitals and universities expands the solution’s use cases and demonstrates that it can be effectively deployed across different industries — wherever product availability, transparent analytics, and reduced out-of-stock and write-off losses matter.
Goods Checker is IBA Group’s proprietary computer vision-based product that automates merchandising processes. It recognizes products on shelves, compares displays against planograms, and spots empty spaces. The system generates detailed analytics by SKU, category, and retail location, helping companies make decisions based on accurate data rather than manual reports.
