Auchan

1. The project was launched in December 2022 at two Auchan "pilot" stores in Moscow.

   The initial step involved coordinating the solution architecture and IT infrastructure security requirements with the client. In line with the approved architecture, a network firewall was installed to safeguard client data, enabling us to simultaneously use video from the stores' own cameras and SSC data.

   Further work on the project went in several directions:

   1. elaboration of client and employee paths;

   2. receiving and analyzing video recordings from customer cameras;

   3. video marking and AI training;

   4. integration with self-checkout software.

   During the implementation process, the ICL team, together with the security service, determined the optimal parameters for installing video surveillance cameras for the operation of both the video analytics system and the security service.

   The system was launched in stages.

   First of all, the AI ​​has learned to distinguish the discrepancy between the number of items in the cart and those included in the receipt. Subsequently, it was possible to distinguish the lack of payment from the client, as well as identify specific goods, thanks to which it was possible to track incorrect scanning of goods with the same name, but different types (taste, color).
   

   Based on the results of the pilot implementation, an approach to further development of the system and technical improvements was formulated.
