Zusammenfassung:	A point-of-sale system is provided and includes a first checkout station and associated first edge cameras. The first cameras have a primary viewing area within the first checkout station and a peripheral viewing area outside the first checkout station. The system includes a second checkout station near the first checkout station and associated second edge cameras. The second cameras have a primary viewing area within the second checkout station and a peripheral viewing area outside the second checkout station. The peripheral viewing area of one second camera is within the first checkout station. The system further includes a vision mesh network having nodes in communication with each other. Some of the first and second cameras are nodes on the vision mesh network. A first edge camera receives and processes information about the first checkout station from the at least one second camera. A method is also provided.
