  • I thought so, top, at least initially. However, it sounds like the out sourced cashiers essentially tallied up the orders after the customer left and sent the bill. How much correction had to be applied to the automation remains to be seen. The biggest issue with systems like this is tracking between scenes and angles. It could be the humans in the loop were there to resync the metadata of each tracked object (i.e., customer) as they moved isle to isle or they removed a jacket or whatever.










  • All you’ve been talking about is the hardware. And you’re right about that. But the software is where everything gets turned on It’s head. Android releases continue to remove features and have issues. MacOS is much better in nearly every regard to Windows 10/11 or Arch/Ubuntu/younameit. I have been a user of every Windows version since 3.11 and Linux for a couple decades now. I recently got a macbook and holyshit. Plus it works better with my phone and watch and airpods. Really tight integration with all of their other products. Family integrations are way ahead of Microsoft, Android (at least the google and Amazon variety, I swore off Samsung years ago), and until the recent beta even Steam. If you’re going to sing the praises of Android and notamac, do yourself a favor and take a deepdive into the software space because as anyone can tell you about AMD vs nVidia, no matter how good the hardware is, if the software isn’t there it’s worthless (AI/ML, video drivers in general until last several years).
