Abstract
A method includes monitoring performance of a system that determines locations of items in a retail store based on sensor values from a collection of sensors in the retail store. When the performance is insufficient to process the sensor values as the sensor values are received, a spatial resolution used to determine the locations of the items in the retail store is reduced.
