The Quiet Robot Revolution That Can Unlock A Trillion Dollars In Retail Efficiency: Meet Tally

Walk into the Decathlon sporting goods store on Market Street in San Francisco and you will find yourself face to face with Tally. She is tall and slender, and has a winning smile--she smiles with her eyes. She is gentle and considerate: if you get in her way, she will quietly glide around you without complaining. She is extremely intelligent and highly efficient: as she moves up and down the aisles, she takes a real-time inventory of the products on the shelves and racks, checking which products are running low or out of stock, and whether they are labeled with the correct price. She can read RFID tags, but she can also use AI-powered image recognition to distinguish different products at a glance.
