The Great Sandwich Standoff

Just Walk Out technology is a fast, convenient and seamless way for people to shop. Shoppers enter by using a payment method such as credit card or mobile wallet. Once they’re in, they simply grab what they want from the shelf and exit the store.

Just Walk Out technology is made possible by a combination of computer vision, sensor fusion, deep machine learning models, and generative AI.

These technologies work together seamlessly, in the background, in order to figure out almost instantly which customer took what, charge them correctly, and allow them to simply walk away with their items.

Accurate receipts are essential to building and maintaining shopper trust. Just Walk Out technology uses object recognition to accurately identify sandwiches, bags of potato chips and other merchandise.

The system is so accurate that it can even track groups of shoppers entering with one credit card. When the group walks out, the system knows which shoppers were using the same card and generates one receipt for the collective transaction.

When the team developed Just Walk Out technology, they used datasets from millions of AI-generated synthetic images and video clips mimicking realistic, and sometimes rare, shopping scenarios, including variations in store format, lighting conditions and even crowds of shoppers.

This training allowed them to scale the original idea for the Just Walk Out technology to a system that can recognise millions of actions without making mistakes.
