Patent number: 11790434Abstract: Systems and method for mapping the location of a product in a store make use of images of products on shelf modules to identify the location of a product. In one implementation, a central computer receives a first image from a camera showing a subset of electronic shelf modules in the store and an indicia displayed thereon. The indicia on a selected one of the subset associated with a particular product or product is subsequently changed. The central computer then receives a second image from the camera showing the changed indicia such that the first and second image can be compared to identify the location of the shelf module and/or product within the store. In another implementation, coordinates of a scanner within one image are utilized to outline borders corresponding to the positioning of products in another image to map the location of a product in a store.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2019Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: SUNRISE R&D HOLDINGS, LLCInventors: Brett Bonner, Dion B.
