  • Publication number: 20230145190
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for detecting gaze direction of subjects in an area of real space. The system receives a plurality of sequences of frames of corresponding fields of view in the real space. The system uses sequences of frames in a plurality of sequences of frames to identify locations of an identified subject and gaze directions of the subject in the area of real space over time. The system includes logic having access to a database identifying locations of items in the area of real space. The system identifies items in the area of real space matching the identified gaze directions of the identified subject.

  • Publication number: 20220207470
    Abstract: A method for tracking inventory items is provided. The method includes using sensors to produce respective sequences of images of corresponding fields of view, the field of view of each sensor overlapping with the field of view of at least one other sensor. The method includes dividing the area of real space into cells having volume and coordinates in a real space, and identifying inventory items and their locations in three dimensions using the sequences of images produced by at least two sensors having overlapping fields of view. The method includes, in response to the identification of the inventory items: (i) matching locations in three dimensions of identified inventory items with cells in the plurality of cells, and (ii) determining, for a particular inventory item matched with a particular cell, whether a count of the particular inventory item is below a threshold for re-stocking the particular inventory item.

  • Publication number: 20220147913
    Abstract: A method for identifying gestures in an area of real space is provided. The method including using a plurality of sensors to produce respective sequences of frames of corresponding fields of view in the area of real space, detecting subjects in the area of real space, using a sequence of frames produced by a corresponding sensor in the plurality of sensors in a first inference engine to identify inventory items carried by the detected subjects in the sequence of frames, using outputs of the first inference engine over a period of time in a second inference engine to identify gestures of the detected subjects, and storing the identified gestures in a database.

  • Publication number: 20220130220
    Abstract: A method is provided for monitoring status of subjects in an area for a system including a first data set identifying locations of subjects, a second data set identifying events in the area, and a third data set identifying whether accounts matched to the subjects exist. The method includes executing a graphical user interface including a map of at least part of the area including avatars identifying locations of subjects located on the map, and representing respective statuses assigned to the subjects located on the map, the statuses being assigned to the subjects based on one or more of the first, second and third data sets, wherein the assigning of the respective statuses to the subjects are assigned by utilizing at least one of the first, second and third data sets to determine that at least one subject of the subjects is a high risk of loss subject.

  • Patent number: 11295270
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for tracking inventory items in an area of real space. A plurality of cameras, or other sensors, produce respective sequences of images in corresponding fields of view in the real space. The field of view of each camera overlaps with the field of view of at least one other camera. The system is coupled to the plurality of cameras and uses the sequences of images produced by at least two cameras in the plurality of cameras to identify inventory events. The inventory event includes an item identifier, a location and a timestamp. A plurality of cells having coordinates in the area of real space are stored as a data set in the memory. The processing system calculates scores at a scoring time, for inventory items having locations matching particular cells using respective counts of inventory events.

A plurality of sensors produce respective sequences of frames in corresponding fields of view in the real space. The field of view of each sensor overlaps with the field of view of at least one other sensor. The processing system uses the sequences of frames produced by sensors in the plurality of sensors to identify gestures by detected subjects in the area of real space and produce inventory events. The inventory events include a subject identifier identifying a detected subject, a gesture type of the identified gesture by the detected subject, an item identifier identifying an inventory item linked to the gesture by the detected subject, a location of the gesture represented by positions in three dimensions of the area of real space and a timestamp.

  • Patent number: 11232687
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for monitoring status of subjects in an area of real space. The system includes a display having access to memory storing a first data set identifying locations of subjects in the area of real space over time, a second data set identifying item put and take events in the area of real space and a third data set identifying accounts matched to the subjects in the first data set. The system includes a graphical user interface logic that renders a map on the display of at least part of the area of real space including avatars having locations on the map corresponding to locations in the area of real space according to the first data set, and identifying respective statuses assigned to the subjects based on one or more of the first data set, the second data set and the third data set.
