What is this camera like thing on electronic shop price tags? (And how does it work)

I first thought it was a camera but there was no point, After some searching I found that these things could communicate optical,, so that might be it, if so how do they work?

Very smart bot, almost seems like a human

And yet labelled as a bot.

Perhaps we need an infrared thingy to change their label?

I replied to another similar comment I think they're using one of gpt4' newer features. It allows image identification and has built-in bing searching. Neat tech!

Or is human. Hard to tell anymore. Welcome to the post truth world!
