• Sensormatic Solutions newest offering uses AI to provide retailers with analytics and visualization tools that enable outcomes-based improvements and satisfying retail experiences

NEUHAUSEN, Switzerland, Jan. 10, 2024 – Sensormatic Solutions, the leading global retail solutions portfolio of Johnson Controls, unveils how it enables an enhanced shopper experience with its Store Guest Behaviors powered by Computer Vision Analytics (CVA) solution at the 2024 National Retail Federation (NRF) Big Show. As part of Sensormatic Solutions computer vision capabilities, Store Guest Behaviors is an artificial intelligence (AI) solution that leverages an adaptive learning model to help retailers understand shopper journeys and deliver engaging, enjoyable and unique shopping experiences.

“Truly understanding the shopper journey is key to impacting shopper behaviors, and a holistic picture of a customer’s movement in a retail space allows for better-informed decisions which results in a superior shopping experience,” said Subramanian Kunchithapatham, chief technology officer at Sensormatic Solutions. “Retailers of any size or category can achieve just that with our Store Guest Behaviors solution and design the ultimate experience that aligns with their brand and overall mission as well as with their customers’ needs.”

Blending Accurate In-Store Data to Help Reinvent the Shopper Experience

Data is redefining everything from how retailers interact with their shoppers, to how, why and where shoppers make their decisions and purchases. Store Guest Behaviors reveals enriched, actionable shopper insights retailers can use to help boost in-store sales through thoughtful strategy and layout within a retail environment. This is because it increases the value of foundational traffic analytics programs, using people counting, shopper journey and behavior data to facilitate operational excellence and improve conversions.

That outcome is enabled by understanding:

• Shoppers’ paths to purchase. Store Guest Behaviors utilizes various data streams like zone-level dwell time and movement analysis, which can measure the time shoppers engage with displays or merchandise. The solution provides heat maps that highlight shoppers’ journeys and paths to purchase, empowering retailers to design more effective layouts and floor plans, inventory management practices and labor models.
• Audience measurement. Store Guest Behaviors can help retailers better understand their customers and what they want. With shopper sentiments, demographics and other relevant data streams, retailers are equipped with the necessary data to enable simple yet comprehensive A/B testing to quantify the value around decisions on merchandise mix, promotional display placements, planogram designs, and assortment strategies.

Store Guest Behaviors powered by CVA allows retailers with compatible tech stacks to make use of existing video infrastructure by using an edge appliance to tap into their digital ecosystems. As with most Sensormatic Solutions computer vision applications, the new solution is enabled through collaboration with Intel and Lenovo and optimized for retail using Sensormatic Solutions suite of proprietary, connected and outcomes-based solutions.

Sensormatic Solutions Store Guest Behaviors powered by CVA is available now—the latest in an extensive line of Computer Vision Analytics applications that can help provide retailers insights on shopper behaviors while strengthening loss prevention efforts and maintaining safe environments for shoppers and associates.
