Publication number: 20240029017Abstract: This information processing device has a determination unit and a generation unit. When a change in the display state of a product on a product shelf is detected, the determination unit determines whether the change in the display state has been made by a store employee. For example, the change in the display state of a product on the product shelf can be detected by a detection unit such as a weight sensor or a distance sensor. In the case of a weight sensor the change in the display state would be a change in the weight of the product shelf. The generation unit generates shelf allocation information when the change in the display state has been made by a store employee.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2021Publication date: January 25, 2024Applicant: NEC CorporationInventor: Shinya YAMASAKI
