Companies have no way of verifying if their discounts are in circulation. Providing discounts at unscheduled times can cause revenue loss for companies. Our proposed solution is to create an object detection model capable of locating product discounts and a mobile app to communicate the model’s findings with the product’s company. We are the first open-source dataset and model for grocery store discounts allowing for a new understanding of how object detection models interpret the world.<\/p>\n
