RFID smart shelf built for real-time stock and product interaction visibility
ZX-SH monitors RFID-tagged products within defined shelf zones. It supports item visibility, stock presence detection, product interaction insights and timely replenishment triggers. As part of the Skanixa™ ZX Series, GarudaVigil™ turns shelf-level events into retail intelligence for dashboards, replenishment workflows, inventory accuracy, analytics and enterprise integration.
Key Features
Shelf-level RFID visibility
Monitors RFID-tagged items within defined shelf zones, helping retailers see what is available, missing, moved, or interacted with.
Product presence detection
Helps retailers understand whether products are physically available on the shelf where customers expect them.
Product interaction tracking
Captures events when products are picked up, moved, returned, or removed from a defined shelf zone.
Defined zone monitoring
Built for continuous visibility across a specific shelf or display zone rather than single-point scanning.
Built for retail workflows
Supports shelf tracking, stock availability, product interaction visibility, replenishment, planogram support, and display intelligence.
Powered by GarudaVigil™
Processes shelf-level events into dashboards, alerts, replenishment signals, inventory updates, and enterprise-ready insights.
How it works
RFID-tagged products are placed within the defined smart shelf zone.
The smart shelf captures tag presence, movement, or removal within the configured zone.
Detected changes can become shelf-level events, such as product present, product removed, product returned, stock low, or movement detected.
Shelf-level RFID data flows into GarudaVigil™ for validation, analytics, workflow mapping, and dashboards.
Physical shelf activity is reflected digitally, helping retailers see product availability, movement, and interaction across shelf zones.
Store teams can see shelf availability, replenishment needs, product movement, and display-level stock status.
Retail, merchandising, and operations teams can use these insights to improve availability, reduce missed sales, optimize displays, and support customer experience.
