Measure shopper behavior by category and display

Compare aisle traffic, end-cap attention, category dwell, and shopper paths across stores.

Measure shopper behavior by category and display

Operating questions

Questions for category and store-operations teams

  1. 01

    Which categories have low dwell or shelf engagement relative to traffic?

  2. 02

    Which end caps and promotional displays create attention and approach?

  3. 03

    Did shopper paths and category dwell change after a merchandising reset?

POS records the sale, not the aisle traffic, category dwell, shelf approach, or shopper path that came before it.

The camera setup depends on whether you measure signage, the storefront, or the full store. The pilot checks camera angles and data quality.

01

Slim Camera + AI Box

Attention at close range, including signage and shelves

02

SpaceVision IP Camera + AI Box

New camera coverage for storefront, zone and journey measurement

03

Existing IP Camera + video processor

Traffic, dwell and spatial analysis using store CCTV

The setup, unit count and measurable area are confirmed after checking camera angle and resolution, occlusion, lighting and the store network.
