[0096] 204. Generate sales reminder information based on surrounding population data according to preset strategies.

[0097] The total flow of people T, the total daily flow of people is the basic data. If the T value obtained by the smart vending machine is relatively small, for example, the daily flow is 100 people, it means that there is a problem with the placement, prompting the device owner to adjust the placement in time.

[0098] In some optional embodiments, the selling prompt information includes a delivery adjustment prompt, 240 including (not shown in the figure):

[0099] Count the number of all human images in the specified time period.

[0100] If the number of human-shaped images within the specified time period is less than a first preset value, a delivery adjustment prompt is generated.

[0101] The ratio of interested people flow M to total people flow T is a sign to measure whether the sound and light advertisement attracts the attention of the crowd. If the ratio is too low, such as less than 10%, the device owner needs to be prompted to adjust factors such as display brightness, volume, and whether the cabinet is conspicuous.

[0102] In some optional embodiments, the sales reminder information includes a setting adjustment reminder, and 240 also includes (not shown in the figure):

[0103] The proportion of interested people is obtained based on the number of all human-shaped images in a specified period of time. The proportion of interested people is the ratio of the number of interested consumers to the number of all human-shaped images in a specified period of time.
