  • Patent number: 12160671
    Abstract: An imaging system capture images of products on shelves in a minimally invasive way. The images can be processed to assess restocking needs and other information. The imaging system includes multiple shelf-mountable imaging devices that can be positioned throughout one or more retail locations. Certain types of imaging devices may be self-contained units having replaceable or rechargeable internal power sources and/or wireless communication interfaces. Certain types of imaging device are configured to take images only when the field of view is not blocked by traffic (e.g., consumers, employees, etc.). Certain types of imaging devices are low-profile and/or are camouflageable to enhance the user experience.

  • Publication number: 20240073528
    Abstract: A stabilizer facilitates mounting an image sensor at an imaging device. The stabilizer removably holds the image sensor. The stabilizer is removably mounted to the imaging device. In certain examples, the image sensor is snap-fit to the stabilizer and the stabilizer is snap-fit to the imaging device. Certain imaging devices define a thermal regulation channel.

  • Publication number: 20230274900
    Abstract: In general, the subject matter of the disclosure relates to an orientation agnostic battery placement device. Connecting a battery in a reversed polarity configuration may cause the battery-powered electronic devices to not work or in some cases may even cause damage to the device itself. The disclosed orientation agnostic battery placement device includes a latch relay device that includes a first latch switch that electrically connects the first and second terminals of a battery compartment to the positive and negative electrical power connections of a load circuitry associated with the battery-powered electronic device respectively when the battery received within the battery compartment is in a first orientation and a second switch that electrically connects the first and second terminals of the battery compartment to the negative and positive electrical power connections of the load circuitry respectively when the battery received within the battery compartment is in a second orientation.
