Abstract: Some embodiments provide retail inventory identification systems, comprising: a mobile product mapping system comprising: a transport system, a tower housing, and a cluster processing system comprising: a plurality of product identifying (PI) systems each in different orientations and directed along different fields of view, and a mobile control circuit; wherein the PI systems each comprise an image capture system, and a location determination system, wherein each of the plurality of PI systems is configured to: capture images of products supported on product support systems; and locally process the images comprising applying a plurality of different machine learning modeling techniques, to infer identification of multiple products and generate product identifying information in association with location information; and the mobile control circuit is configured to generate product identifying mapping of products as the product mapping system moves; and communicate the generated product identifying mapping to

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing inventory at a retail facility include an image capture device having a field of view that includes a product display shelf of the retail facility, an electronic database that stores a planogram of product display shelves at the retail facility and a computing device. The computing device obtains an image of a product display shelf, detects the individual packages of each of the different products captured in the image, defines different product display areas for the different products on the product display shelf captured in the image, and generates virtual boundary lines that surround each of the defined product display areas. The computing device also determines an identity of a product contained located in each defined product display area, and associates the virtual boundary lines surrounding each defined product display area with an identifier unique to the product contained in the defined product display area.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing inventory at a retail facility include an image capture device having a field of view that includes a product display shelf of the retail facility, an electronic database that stores defined product display areas and assigned unique identifiers of the products on the product display shelves, and a computing device. The computing device obtains an image of a product display shelf, detects the individual packages of the different products captured in the image, identifies the products associated with the packages detected in the image by utilizing reference information stored in the database, determines whether one or more of the products on the product display shelf is associated with an out of stock event, and transmits an out of stock alert to an electronic device of a worker at the retail facility, notifying the worker to replenish the depleted products on the product display shelf.
