Abstract: According to one or more embodiments, a settlement apparatus includes a processor. The processor detects a state of the settlement apparatus related to execution of settlement processing at the settlement apparatus using a plurality of settlement methods. The processor determines, based on the detected state of the settlement apparatus, whether there is a first settlement method among the plurality of settlement methods which cannot be executed at the settlement processing apparatus. The processor then notifies a customer of settlement method information indicating the first settlement method cannot be executed at the settlement processing or that another settlement method, other than the first settlement method, can be executed at the settlement apparatus instead of the first settlement method.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, a printer performs printing on a printable medium to be attached to a product. The printer includes: a memory; a display; and a controller. The controller detects an attribution item that differs between generated print data and print data that is recorded in the memory in association with input identification information. The controller displays print image of the printable medium on the display on the basis of the generated print data in such a way that the detected attribution item is highlighted.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises a first imaging section configured to image the holding surface of a holding platform on which an object is held from different directions, a recognition section configured to, read out the characteristics of the object image of a object contained in the first imaged image based on each of the first imaged images that are respectively imaged by the first imaging section from different directions and compare the read characteristics with the pre-stored characteristics of each object, thereby recognizing the object corresponding to the object image every first imaged image and a determination section configured to determine the recognition result of the object held on the holding platform based on the recognition result of the object image every first imaged image.

Abstract: A self checkout terminal comprises a measurement section configured to measure the weight of a commodity, a shooting section configured to shoot an image, a recognition unit configured to recognize the commodity from the shot image, an extraction unit configured to extract the commodity information satisfying the recognized commodity from a commodity master file storing the commodity information including the weight of the commodity, wherein the commodity information is information satisfying the commodity, a selection unit configured to select the commodity information including a weight approximately the same as the measured weight from the extracted commodity information and a registration unit configured to carry out sales registration on the commodity satisfied by the selected commodity information.

Abstract: A store system comprises an acquisition section configured to acquire an image picked-up by an image pick-up section, a similarity calculation section configured to calculate a similarity which represents a degree with which the reference image of each commodity is similar to the image of an object picked-up by the image pick-up section, a display control section configured to display the commodity information of the commodity corresponding to the reference image with a high similarity as a commodity candidate executing registration processing on a display section based on the similarity calculated by the similarity calculation section, a selection acceptance section configured to accept the selection to the commodity information displayed on the display section and a processing section configured to process the object picked-up by the image pick-up section as the commodity corresponding to the selected commodity information accepted by the selection acceptance section.
