Abstract: Real-time images of individuals and items on shelves of a store are analyzed for behaviors of the individuals and stocking levels of the items on the shelves. An autonomous Collaborative Robot (COBOT) is dispatched to aid the individuals based on the behaviors. The COBOT also restocks the shelves with the items when the stocking levels fall below predefined thresholds. The COBOT may be dispatched remotely or activated autonomously based on the behaviors or the stocking levels. In an embodiment, the COBOT aids individuals by retrieving items from shelves that are unable to be reached by the individuals.

Abstract: Various embodiments each include at least one of systems, methods, software, and data structures for automated inventory management including blockchain smart contracting. One such embodiment in the form of a method includes maintaining a database of products available for purchase from vendors, receiving a data representation of a purchase request for a desired product from a buying entity, and finding a match between the purchase request and vendor of the desired product. This method may then generate a data representation of a contract between the buying entity and the vendor of the match followed by generating a hash of the data representation of the contract and adding the data representation of the contract and the generated hash to a blockchain data structure. A copy of the block chain data structure may then be stored and forwarded to at least each of the contracting parties.

Abstract: A computer implemented method includes receiving training input corresponding to multiple different prompted user gestures, training a machine learning system on the training input, receiving an authentication input based on an authentication gesture performed by the user, and associating the authentication input with a transaction authentication operation utilizing the machine learning system in a virtual environment.
