In this short clip, we meet Simbe’s half-heartedly anthropomorphised inventory-tracking robot Tally, geared towards improving visibility reducing store front tracking costs. And, as the video makes clear, freeing up staff to provide much-needed customer service.
Using image-recognition technology Tally performs the repetitive and laborious tasks of auditing shelves for out-of-stock items, low stock items, misplaced items, and pricing errors. Simbe says that Tally operates safely during normal store hours alongside shoppers and employees – probably disarming many shoppers with the just-about-noticeable eyes on its display.
