Executive Summary
The idea of leveraging loss prevention technology for store operations and analytics has been a hot topic for years. But when the conversation shifted to actual examples, the silence was deafening — until now.
Project Highlights
Earlier this year The Kroger Co. launched a new enterprise IT architecture system dubbed Retail Site Intelligence. Working closely with three key partners — product design services company eInfochips, retail IT service provider Wincor Nixdorf and standards alliance ZigBee — the supermarket chain developed a system for its stores that uses industry standard ZigBee “wireless mesh” networks to integrate long-battery-life sensors, handheld devices, point of sale devices and video management software into a next-generation platform.
