  • Publication number: 20240013185
    Abstract: A smart shopping cart includes internally facing cameras and an integrated scale to identify objects that are placed in the cart. To avoid unnecessary processing of images that are irrelevant, and thereby save battery life, the cart uses the scale to detect when an object is placed in the cart. The cart obtains images from a cache and sends those to an object detection machine learning model. The cart captures and sends a load curve as input to the trained model for object detection. Labeled load data and labeled image data are used by a model training system to train the machine learning model to identify an item when it is added to the shopping cart. The shopping cart also uses weight data and the image data from a timeframe associated with the addition of the item to the cart as inputs.

  • Publication number: 20240003707
    Abstract: A shopping cart's tracking system receives wheel motion data from a plurality of wheel sensors coupled to a plurality of wheels of the shopping cart, wherein the wheel motion data describes rotation of the plurality of wheels and orientation of the plurality of wheels. The tracking system predicts an estimated location of the shopping cart by applying a machine-learning location model to the wheel motion data. The machine-learning location model is trained with training examples that are generated by: receiving prior wheel motion data from the plurality of wheel sensors, partitioning the prior wheel motion data into a plurality of segments using a time window, receiving one or more baseline locations at one or more prior timestamps, and generating one or more training examples, each training example comprising a segment of prior wheel motion data and a baseline location with a timestamp overlapping the segment.

  • Publication number: 20240001981
    Abstract: A shopping cart's tracking system determines a first baseline location of the shopping cart at a first timestamp with a wireless device located on the shopping cart detecting one or more external wireless devices (e.g., RFID tags) in the indoor environment. The shopping cart's tracking system receives wheel motion data from one or more wheel sensors coupled to one or more wheels of the shopping cart, wherein the wheel motion data describes rotation of the one or more wheels. The shopping cart's tracking system calculates a translation traveled by the shopping cart from the first baseline location based on the wheel motion data. The shopping cart's tracking system determines an estimated location of the shopping cart at a second timestamp based on the first baseline location and the translation. With the estimated location, the shopping cart can update a map with the estimated location of the shopping cart.
