Woolworths launches Pick List Assist technology camera feature in self-serve checkouts

Woolworths has rolled out a little-known camera feature that will stop dodgy shoppers from scanning expensive fruits and vegetables at cheaper prices at the self-serve checkouts. The 'Pick List Assist' technology uses image recognition to filter the list of 'possible' products based on their colour, shape or size - saving shoppers time from having to search through the system for individual items. The high-tech system would make it trickier for sneaky shoppers pretending to buy a cheaper fruit or vegetable when weighing pricier loose produce. The camera feature is expected to roll out to the rest of the supermarket stores across the country over the coming years. Daily Mail Australia understands Woolworths does not record or store vision captured via the Pick List Assist system.
