description To identify spaces on shelves which are not full of product and need restocking, markers having a pattern are placed on or near shelves containing product. A camera obtains an image of the shelf, products, and markers. A processor executing software is used to analyze the image to identify the markers and the shelf. Next, storage areas on the shelf are analyzed to identify vacant areas represented by a lower light intensity relative to adjacent areas. The processor determines a location of the vacant areas, and determines the size of the vacant areas using the known marker size and the size of the marker in the image, to generate a scale which is applied to the vacant area. This information and stored product information is used to determine which products should be restocked. The marker pattern can be selected to be readily recognizable by an image processing algorithm.
