  • Patent number: 11922391
    Abstract: An article information deduction apparatus (10) includes an acquisition unit (110) and an output unit (120). The acquisition unit (110) acquires data based on a change in a detected value of a weight sensor (30) (hereinafter described as weight change data). For example, the acquisition unit (110) determines data acquired by chronologically arranging data acquired from the weight sensor (30) as weight change data. Further, the acquisition unit (110) acquires data indicating a movement of a hand of a person positioned in a shelf-front space (hereinafter described as movement data). For example, the acquisition unit (110) acquires data acquired by chronologically arranging data output from a depth sensor (40) to the article information deduction apparatus (10) as movement data. The output unit (120) outputs article determination information of the article deduced to be taken out by the hand of the person positioned in the shelf-front space, by using the weight change data and the movement data.

  • Publication number: 20240020979
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus (100) includes: a person detecting unit (102) that executes processing of detecting a person and a location with respect to each of a first image generated in a first camera (5a) and a second image generated in a second camera (5b); a coordinate generating unit (104) that generates coordinates of the location of the detected person; and a determination unit (106) that determines, by using a first location generated from the first image and a second location generated from the second image, whether the person detected from the first image and the person detected from the second image are the same person.
