Automated identification of items placed in a cart and recommendations based on same

A smart shopping cart may utilize cameras and / or load sensors to provide capacity-informed recommendations. The cameras are positioned facing at least a first basket of the smart shopping cart and configured to capture image data during a visit at a retailer location. The load sensors are configured to measure load data during a visit at the retailer location. The cart detects obtained items entering the first basket based on the image data and the load data. The cart identified remaining capacity in the first basket based on the image data and the load data. The cart applies a capacity-informed model to the one or more obtained items and the remaining capacity in the first basket to identify one or more recommended items. The cart displays, via an electronic display, the one or more recommended items.

PendingUS20250315787A1CommerceShopping basketDatabase
A smart shopping cart may utilize cameras to identify fulfillment instructions to maximize efficiency. A fulfillment user may be tasked to fulfill a batch of orders at a retailer location. Each order includes one or more items to be obtained. The cart captures image data via one or more cameras in view of the cart's baskets. From the image data, the cart can detect obtained items placed in the baskets and can generate an occupancy state of the baskets indicating a configuration of each obtained item in the baskets. The cart can apply a fulfillment optimization model to the occupancy state to identify a next item to be obtained in the batch of orders and an optimal packing configuration for the next item. The cart can display to the fulfillment user the next item and the optimal packing configuration.

Item tracking using radio frequency identification filtering

Systems and techniques for wireless communication are provided. Radio frequency identification (RFID) observations may be obtained based on an excitation signal and a plurality of backscatter signals from a plurality of RFID tags. Each backscatter signal may indicate an identifier of a respective RFID tag uniquely associated with a particular item of the plurality of items. The expected background noise information indicative of a subset of the plurality of items for the RFID observation may be determined based on comparing the location of the wireless communication device to the item placement information for the plurality of items. The RFID observations may be filtered using expected background noise information to exclude information associated with a subset of the plurality of items. A shopping basket content estimate may be determined from the filtered RFID observations, wherein the shopping basket content estimate is indicative of one or more collected items of the plurality of items.

Zero-friction exit experience via computer vision

Examples provide a system and method for identifying unpaid items in real-time using computer vision object detection and recognition models. Images of a cart are selected based on proximity of the cart to one or more anchor points. The object detection and recognition models analyze the image data and identify a set of items in the selected cart. An e-receipt including a set of paid items is selected from a plurality of active electronic receipts based on matching the set of identified items to the set of paid items. Any unmatched items are added to a set of predicted unpaid items. When a receipt corresponding to the selected e-receipt is scanned, a notification identifying the set of predicted unpaid items is provided to a user device for display, enabling a user to identify any unpaid items in a basket of items quickly and accurately in real-time at store exit.

Shopping basket monitoring using computer vision

A system for monitoring shopping carts uses cameras to generate images of the carts moving in a store. In some implementations, cameras may additionally or alternatively be mounted to the shopping carts and configured to image cart contents. The system may use the collected image data, and / or other types of sensor data (such as the store location at which an item was added to the basket), to classify items detected in the shopping carts. For example, a trained machine learning model may classify item in a cart as “non-merchandise,”“high theft risk merchandise,”“electronics merchandise,” etc. When a shopping cart approaches a store exit without any indication of an associated payment transaction, the system may use the associated item classification data, optionally in combination with other data such as cart path data, to determine whether to execute an anti-theft action, such as locking a cart wheel or activating a store alarm. The system may also compare the classifications of cart contents to payment transaction records (or summaries thereof) to, e.g., detect underpayment events.

Cart / basket fraud detection processing

An image of a cart / basket is captured based on a triggering event associated with a transaction at a transaction terminal. A determination is made whether the cart / basket is empty or nonempty from the image. When the cart / basket is nonempty a determination is made whether the nonempty cart includes one or more legitimate items or saleable items associated with a store. When the cart / basket is nonempty with one or more saleable items remaining in the cart / basket, and alert is raised to suspend completion of the transaction at the transaction terminal for intervention and audit of the transaction.
