A system for determining whether shoppers are eligible for frictionless checkout is disclosed. The system has a processor that obtains image data captured using image sensors positioned in a retail store. The processor analyzes the image data to identify at least one shopper at one or more locations of the retail store. The processor detects, based on the analysis of the image data, at least one product interaction event associated with an action of the at least one shopper at the one or more locations of the retail store. Further, based on the detected at least one product interaction event, the processor determines whether the at least one shopper is eligible for frictionless checkout. In response to a determination that the at least one shopper is ineligible for frictionless checkout, the processor causes delivery of an indicator that the at least one shopper is ineligible for frictionless checkout.

Provided are a re-using e-commerce payment instruments for in-store purchasing systems and methods. A customer enters a check out and a transaction at the point of sale is started. The system receives a pairing request at a wallet processor from a customer mobile device operating a mobile application. This pairing request is created and sent in response to scanning of a code having a transaction identification. The system associates a customer payment profile with the transaction identification and sends associated information to the point of sale. The point of sale sends an amount of sale to authorize to the wallet processor after completing scanning of items. The system creates an authorization for payment and sending the authorization for payment to an authorizer. The transaction may then be completed by processing payment.

Apparatuses, methods, program products, and systems are disclosed for generating online auction listings. An apparatus includes a content processing module that processes, on a mobile device, one or more of image and video content of an item captured with a camera of the mobile device. The one or more of image and video content processed for posting on an online auction marketplace platform. An apparatus includes an information module that receives, on the mobile device, information associated with the item in the one or more of image and video content. An apparatus includes a transmission module that sends the one or more of image and video content and the information associated with the item directly from the mobile device to the online auction marketplace platform to be posted as an auction listing.

Disclosed are self-checkout terminals and systems and methods for controlling the same. The systems and methods may include receiving a first image of the customer queuing area from the first camera and determining that a customer is in the customer queuing area. A first wakeup signal may be transmitted to one of the self-checkout terminals when the customer is in the customer queuing area. A second image of the customer queuing area may be received from the first camera and a determination may be made that the customer queuing area is void of customers. A first sleep signal may be transmitted to the one of the self-checkout terminals when the customer queuing area is void of the customers.

A system and a method for managing inventory are provided. The system may include: a plurality of weighing devices, at least a memory, and at least a processor. The weighing devices are configured to weight at least an object. The processor is configured to receive data from at least one weighing device relating to the at least one object weighed by the respective weighing device, and to store the received data in the memory. The processor is further configured to determine at least a matching of data received from a first weighing device with data received from a second weighing device.

An inspection system of a chip includes a reading device and a determining unit. The reading device is configured to count a number of chips stored in a storage case, the chips associated with a table game and including a chip having a radio tag, read the radio tag while the chips are stored in the storage case, and acquire chip information. The determining unit is configured to compare the chip information of the chips in the storage case with a physical number of the chips in the storage case, determine that there is an abnormal chips among the chips stored in the storage case based on a determination that the counted number of the chips does not match a physical number of the chips in the storage case, and output a result associated with an indication of the abnormal chip.

An apparatus comprises an image sensor and a processor circuit. The image sensor may be configured to capture images of a field of view of the image sensor. The processor circuit may be configured to (i) receive the images captured by the image sensor and (ii) generate one or more control signals in response to objects in the images. The processor circuit may be further configured to (i) detect a registration indicia on an object in one or more of the images, (ii) determine whether the processor circuit includes support for the object associated with the registration indicia, and (iii) when the processor circuit does not include support for the object associated with the registration indicia, download support information for the object associated with the registration indicia from a database.

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. The product to be recognized is defined from the captured images, the weight, and position information, and the product is identified from the defined information. The settlement means settles payment for the identified product.

The present invention provides a processing apparatus (10) including a product database management unit (11) that registers a registration target product in a product database, and a special information management unit (13) that, when a similar-appearance product being similar in appearance to the registration target product at a predetermined level or more is registered in the product database, registers both the registration target product and the similar-appearance product as first processing target products requiring first processing, and registers information associating the registration target product and the similar-appearance product.

This application relates to systems, methods, devices, and other techniques for dynamic and real-time updated receipts in an autonomous store
