Working with Google Cloud, we can help retailers leverage image recognition to transform their overall operations: to improve on-shelf availability, forecasting, click-and-collect processes, and, ultimately, to modernize the shopping experience as online and offline converge." It's our mission to provide 'eyes in the store' on every SKU. Joel Bar-El, Trax's CEO and co-founder, added: "About 90% of shopping worldwide is still done in physical stores. "At NRF 2019 in New York this month, we're excited to be demonstrating how Google Cloud and Trax provide our retail customers the ability to ride the wave of increased cloud capabilities, advanced machine-learning algorithms and reduced imaging-sensor costs to digitize the shelf and create new powerful applications: for increasing product availability, better management of in-store inventory, and creating new customer experiences, such as augmented-reality (AR) guided shopping," said Mark Cook, Trax's VP for Retail, based in San Francisco.Ĭook continued: "Google Cloud provides the secure computing power to capture tens of thousands of SKUs across an entire store within milliseconds and produce real-time insights with our image recognition engines that can rapidly address any out-of-stocks or other shelf-execution gaps."
