  • Patent number: 11205094
    Abstract: System that facilitates rapid onboarding of an autonomous (cashier-less) store by capturing images of the store's items from multiple angles, with varying backgrounds, and that builds a classifier training dataset from these images. The system may have cameras in different positions, and backgrounds that generate different background colors. It may have a platform for items that can be switched between a transparent and non-transparent state; cameras below the platform may therefore capture images of the bottom side of the item when the platform is transparent. When an item is placed in the imaging system, a fully automated process may generate a sequence of background colors and may capture and process images from all of the cameras to create training images. Images of the item from multiple angles, including views of the entire external surface of the item, may be captured without requiring an operator to move or reorient the item.

  • Publication number: 20210368619
    Abstract: A conductive bump electrode structure includes a substrate, an elastic circuit layer, at least two conductive bumps, and an insulating layer. The elastic circuit layer is mounted on the substrate, and includes at least one elastic circuit. The at least two conductive bumps are mounted on the elastic circuit layer, and are electrically connected to each other through the at least one elastic circuit. The insulating layer is mounted on the elastic circuit layer, and includes at least two holes. Since there is a gap between the conductive bumps, the conductive bump electrode structure is easy to be bent and fit body curves of various parts of a user. The elastic circuit can stretch or compress along with the user's movement due to its elasticity, thereby increasing suitability of the conductive bump electrode structure to the human body.
