Researchers have developed a novel approach for real-time smart retail analytics using fog computing and a lightweight deep learning model called RetailLightNet. This system aims to overcome the challenges of high latency and privacy concerns associated with cloud-based video analytics by processing data closer to the source on edge devices like the NVIDIA Jetson Nano. The RetailLightNet model, which utilizes depth-wise separable convolutions for efficient feature extraction, achieved high precision, recall, and F1-scores in shelf monitoring and queue assessment tasks.
