“Some of the most transformative work in machine learning and computer vision is happening in retail. I was drawn to Standard AI for its mission to use computer vision to transform the way we shop and better the way we live,” said Qureshi.

A few months ago, Standard AI launched its new artificial intelligence-enabled autonomous checkout experience at existing stores in the Arizona Circle K location.
Standard AI’s high-end automation system helps retailers to offer a better customer experience and improve in-store efficiency and economics. CEO of Standard AI, Jordan Fisher, said, “ThirdEye product and engineering team have been engaged in cutting-edge work, and they will be invaluable to our team as we expand the capabilities of our platform deeper into retail.”
He further added that computer vision technology has now become critical for retailers to keep up with the data-driven flexibility of the eCommerce industry globally.
