摘要： A system for selecting delivery mechanisms sends a request to a plurality of servers associated with one or more autonomous delivery mechanism and one or more non-autonomous delivery mechanisms to provide delivery metadata. The request comprises a pickup location coordinate and a delivery location coordinate. The delivery metadata comprises a delivery time and a delivery quote. The system receives a first set of delivery metadata associated with one or more autonomous delivery mechanisms, and a second set of delivery metadata associated with one or more non-autonomous delivery mechanisms. The system identifies a particular autonomous delivery mechanism from within the category of autonomous delivery mechanisms based on the first set of delivery metadata. The system identifies a particular non-autonomous delivery mechanism from within the category of non-autonomous delivery mechanisms based on the second set of delivery metadata.

摘要： A device configured to receive a rack identifier for a rack that is configured to hold items. The device is further configured to identify a master template that is associated with the rack. The device is further configured to receive images of the plurality of items on the rack and to combine the images into a composite image of the rack. The device is further configured to identify shelves on the rack within the composite image and to generate bounding boxes that correspond with an item on the rack. The device is further configured to associate each bounding box with an item identifier and an item location. The device is further configured to generate a rack analysis message based on a comparison of the item locations for each bounding box and the rack positions from the master template and to output the rack analysis message.

摘要： A tracking system includes a set of cameras, a kiosk, and a tracking server. The kiosk receives a payment amount from a person. The tracking server extracts features of the person from an image feed received from the set of cameras. The tracking server generates a session identifier that is associated with the payment amount and a unique code. The unique code represents at least one of the payment amount and features of the person. The tracking server sends a message to the kiosk to provide a ticket corresponding to the payment amount and the unique code to the person. The tracking server receives a digital cart associated with the person comprising items and a total cash value of the items. The tracking server concludes a transaction by deducting the total cash value from the payment amount.

摘要： A tracking system includes a camera subsystem that includes cameras that capture vide of a space. Each camera is coupled with a camera client that determines local coordinates of people in the captured video. The camera clients generate frames that include color frames and depth frames labeled with an identifier number of the camera and their corresponding timestamps. The camera clients generate tracks that include metadata describing historical people detections, tracking identifications, timestamps, and the identifier number of the camera. The camera clients send the frames and tracks to cluster servers that maintain the frames and tracks such that they are retrievable using their corresponding labels. A camera server queries the cluster servers to receive the frames and tracks using their corresponding labels. The camera server determines the physical positions of people in the space based on the determined local coordinates.

摘要： A system includes a sensor, a weight sensor, and a tracking subsystem. The tracking subsystem receives an image feed of top-view images generated by the sensor and weight measurements from the weight sensor. The tracking subsystem detects an event associated with an item being removed from a rack in which the weight sensor is installed. The tracking subsystem determines that a first person and a second person may be associated with the event. The tracking subsystem then determines, using a first approach, whether an action associated with the event was performed by the first person or the second person. If results of the first approach do not satisfy criteria, a second approach is used to assign the action to the first or second person.

摘要： A device configured to detect a triggering event at a platform and to capture a depth image of items on the platform using a three-dimensional (3D) sensor. The device is further configured to determine an object pose for each item on the platform and to identify one or more cameras from among a plurality of cameras based on the object pose for each item on the platform. The device is further configured to capture one or more images of the items on the platform using the identified cameras and to identify items within the one or more images based on features of the items. The device is further configured to identify a user associated with the identified items on the platform, to identify an account that is associated with the user, and to associate the identified items with the account of the user.

摘要： An apparatus includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores a set of inputs, an algorithmic shopping cart, and a machine learning algorithm. The set of inputs includes information collected from sensors located in a physical store during a shopping session of a person. The algorithmic shopping cart includes items determined by an algorithm, based on the set of inputs, to have been selected during the shopping session. The machine learning algorithm is configured to use the set of inputs to select between using the algorithmic shopping cart and using a virtual shopping cart to process a transaction associated with the shopping session. The processor uses the machine learning algorithm to determine, based on the set of inputs, to use the algorithmic shopping cart to process the transaction. In response, the processor generates a receipt based on the algorithmic shopping cart. The processor sends the receipt to the person.

摘要： An apparatus includes a display, interface, and processor. The interface receives video from a camera located in a physical store and directed at a first physical rack. The camera captures video of the rack during a shopping session. The processor displays a first virtual rack that emulates the first physical rack and includes first and second virtual shelves. The virtual shelves include virtual items, which include graphical representations of physical items located on the physical rack. The processor displays the rack video, which depicts an event including the person interacting with the first physical rack. The processor also displays a virtual shopping cart. The processor receives information associated with the event, identifying the first virtual item. The rack video depicts that the person selected the first physical item while interacting with the first physical rack. The processor then stores the first virtual item in the virtual shopping cart.
