Patent number: 11858143Abstract: An autonomous mobile device (AMD) follows a user who may move among other people, change orientation, or move in and out view of a camera on the AMD. A predicted location of the user may be determined based on a previous location and previous movement. A proximity value is determined by the distance between a location in physical space of a user and the predicted location. An image from a camera is processed to determine a user depicted in the image and generate a feature vector (FV) of that depiction. A gallery of FVs of the user as viewed from different angles, poses, and so forth is stored. A similarity value is determined between a FV of an unidentified user in an image and the FVs in the gallery. The user may be identified using the proximity value and the similarity value.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2020Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Chi Liu, Wei Wang, Rajesh Shankarrao Padgilwar, Ning Zhou, Kah Kuen Fu
