Patent number: 12039508Abstract: Provided is an information processing system that, when a shopper purchases a product displayed in a shop, enables the automation of the purchase of the product and reduces the time required for purchasing the product. This information processing system comprises a moving object tracking means, a shelf product recognition means, and a purchase means. The moving object tracking means identifies moving objects, such as shoppers and baskets, that are moving through a shop, defines the region of the moving object, and picks up images while tracking the moving object. The shelf product recognition means constantly picks up images of the state of the shelves, compares images picked up before and after an object is taken from a shelf, defines the region from the picked up image of a recognized product, and identifies the product from the defined image region. The purchase means purchases the identified product.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2021Date of Patent: July 16, 2024Assignee: SIGNPOST CORPORATIONInventors: Yasushi Kambara, Hideki Kawabata, Toshiya Namikawa, Tomohiro Sasaki

Publication number: 20230027382Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to automate settlement of the price of a product, when a purchaser purchases a product displayed in a shop, in order to reduce the time required for settlement of the price of the product, and to prevent fraud by the purchaser or the cashier. The present information processing system is provided with a moving object tracking means, a shelf product recognition means, and a settlement means. The moving object tracking means finds a moving object such as a shopper or a basket moving within a store, defines the region of the moving object, and captures images of the moving object while tracking the movement thereof. The shelf product recognition means constantly monitors the state within a shelf, and compares captured images before and after an object is removed from the shelf, a change in weight, or a change in a position signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2020Publication date: January 26, 2023Inventors: Tomoki AKUTSU, Toshiya NAMIKAWA, Hideki KAWABATA
