Retail surveillance AI

Spatial and temporal annotation of in-store CCTV: more than 5,000 objects per batch on a private CVAT instance.

Illustration of a store camera view of shoppers with baskets and phones in an aisle, with highlighted regions, above a video timeline of event bars with start and end markers.

Problem

Retail intelligence needs both frame-level attributes and timestamped store events: what is in the scene, and what happens in it over time.

Data and task

Spatial boxes and behaviours on frames, covering people, baskets, phones and actions, plus temporal CCTV events with start and end times.

Tools

A private CVAT instance, rather than a shared workspace.

Challenges

Combining spatial and temporal annotation within rolling batches, so the boxes on each frame and the events on the timeline stay consistent with each other as new footage arrives.

QA

Two-tier review on every batch.

Delivery scale

More than 5,000 objects per batch for a confidential client.

Result and next step

Combined spatial and event data delivered in rolling batches.
