Stock/inventory management seems like a great, although tough application for computer vision. A decent way to estimate how much broccoli is left without human intervention would facilitate automated ordering and eliminate rules like this one.
The title of the article is also misleading - they're not halting restocking of goods, they've just instructed employees not to patch over gaps with other products.
- trentmb 9y agoWouldnt a scale work?
- JshWright 9y agoI don't think automated inventory of produce is that huge a need, but if it is, a scale embedded in the produce bin seems like a much simpler solution than CV/ML
