An autonomous retail store management system entails inventory tracking, store monitoring, and anomaly correction. Recent attempts at autonomous retail store management have faced challenges primarily in perception for anomaly detection, as well as new challenges arising in mobile manipulation for executing anomaly correction. Advances in each of these areas along with system integration are necessary for a scalable solution in this domain.
