Retailers are facing new challenges of implementing legal requirements posed by Covid-19. These include ensuring that customers wear facial protection gear (e.g. masks) when entering a shop or to guarantee that the maximum number of customers within a shop is not exceeded. Organizational solutions can be highly complex, expensive and not 100% reliable. A "digital solution" for meeting Corona requirements which are based on artificial intelligence can particularly be suitable to support the current requirements for retailers:

• Mask recognition for entry control in real time

• Mask recognition for security in a shop

• Customer counting and identification reduced distance

But you can imagine how strongly such events could possibly affect everyday life.
