Abstract

An apparatus includes a display, interface, and processor. The interface receives a camera feed from a camera directed at a first physical rack located in a physical store. The processor displays, in a first region of the display, a virtual layout of a virtual store, configured to emulate a physical layout of the physical store. The virtual layout includes virtual racks assigned to physical racks. The virtual layout emulates the physical layout of the physical store. The processor receives an indication of an event associated with the first physical rack and accordingly displays the first virtual rack, which includes first and second virtual shelves. The first and second virtual shelves include virtual items that emulate physical items located on physical shelves of the first physical rack. The processor additionally displays a recording of the camera feed, which depicts the event associated with the first physical rack.
