HOW IT RUNS ON EDGE

Camera to notification: the rule's pipeline

Footage is processed on the Edge device in your store or site: the model analyses frames in real time, an event is raised when the rule condition is met, and every notification channel fires at once.

TECHNICAL · DURATION

What it needs and how it works

Checkout-Queue Detection ships as a ready-made rule and is configured for your site. The rule measures how long a person or object stays in a defined area. When the dwell threshold is exceeded an event is produced — used for queues, idle waiting or occupation scenarios. Dwell tracking is anonymous and runs on Edge.

Deployment
Live the same day · Edge or on-prem

This rule is part of the Retail Intelligence rule set and runs on the IP cameras you already own.

How false alarms are reduced

Brief disappearance and reappearance (occlusion) can disturb dwell measurement. Tracking tolerance, a minimum-duration threshold and zone definition reduce drift.

Alert and action

The data produced is anonymous and lands in the store-operations dashboard; no person is identified — GDPR-compliant by design.
