Abstract:
In some embodiments, methods and systems of detecting and monitoring shoplifting of products by individuals at a retail facility include sensors coupled to a product and located at a fixed threshold distance relative to each other. The sensors are configured to generate an alert signal indicating that the fixed threshold distance between the first and second sensors has been altered. An alert sensor positioned in the product stocking area of the retail facility is configured to receive the alert signal from one or both of the product sensors. A central computing device at the retail facility is configured to determine the alert sensor that received the alert signal, and to activate a video camera in order to acquire a photo or video of the portion of the product stocking area of the retail facility associated with the alert sensor that received the alert signal.

Claim (Index 20):
The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing at least one scanner proximate an exit from the retail facility and detecting, via the at least one exit scanner, whether a product being removed from the retail store by an individual includes the first and second product sensors, and generating an alert when the product being removed from the retail facility by the individual includes at least one of the first and second product sensors.
