Background
Open-door vending machine compares traditional non-open-door vending machine, owing to can make the consumer carry out more autonomous selection, and shopping earlier, the shopping mode of back settlement brings better user experience. The consumer opens through scanning the two-dimensional code or through other perception means and sells the quick-witted lock, then carries out shopping by oneself, and after shopping, closes the vending machine lock, sells the quick-witted generation shopping order, and the consumer accomplishes the payment. One of the major technical problems facing door-opening vending machines is how to quickly and accurately identify the goods and the quantity of goods purchased by a customer.
In the prior art, vending machines may accomplish the identification of merchandise through gravity sensing techniques. Specifically, the weight of the commodity on the shelf before the door is opened is detected by the gravity sensor, and then the weight of the commodity on the shelf after the door is closed is detected. The items purchased by the customer and the quantity of the items are determined based on the two weights. For example, patent publication No. CN108665623A discloses a vending machine, which recognizes commodities by gravity, and the recognition accuracy of the commodities is low, which is likely to cause the loss of the commodities for the merchants.
As can be seen from the above description, in the prior art, the purchased commodities and the quantity of the commodities are determined based on only the weight before the door is opened and the weight after the door is closed, and a plurality of different commodity combinations are possible based on the two weights, and the prior art cannot identify the combination closest to the real situation from the plurality of different commodity combinations. Thus, the prior art has less accuracy in identifying the articles removed from the merchandiser.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer and more complete, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention, and based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of the present invention.
FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method of identifying merchandise being removed from an unmanned vending machine according to one embodiment of the present invention. Above-mentioned unmanned machine of selling is provided with first microwave module and second microwave module, is provided with commodity between first microwave module and the second microwave module, and first microwave module is used for sending the microwave, and the second microwave module is used for receiving the microwave that first microwave module sent. For example, the first microwave module is arranged at a corner of a shelf, the second microwave module is arranged at another corner of the shelf and is positioned on the same diagonal line with the first microwave module, so that the microwaves can pass through all goods on the shelf comprehensively, and the sensitivity of the change of the microwave transmission duration can be improved.
As shown in fig. 1, the method may include the steps of:
step 101, determining the transmission time length of the microwave transmitted from the first microwave module to the second microwave module when the commodity is in the two adjacent static states, and determining the difference value of the two transmission time lengths as the transmission time difference.
Microwave (UWB) is a wireless carrier communication technology, which directly uses digital waveforms to transmit data, and measures the microwave transmission duration through the time stamps of the first microwave module and the second microwave module.
In this step, when the transmission duration of the microwave transmitted from the first microwave module to the second microwave module is kept constant within the preset time period, the commodity is in a static state. That is to say, before the commodity is not taken out of the unmanned vending machine, the commodity in the unmanned vending machine is in a static state, and at this time, the transmission time length for the first microwave module to transmit the microwave to the second microwave module is kept unchanged within a preset time period; after the commodity is taken out of the unmanned vending machine, the commodity in the unmanned vending machine is still, and the transmission time length of the microwave transmitted from the first microwave module to the second microwave module is kept unchanged within the preset time period. In this embodiment, whether the goods in the unmanned vending machine are in a static state is determined through the change of the transmission time length of the microwave transmitted from the first microwave module to the second microwave module.
Since the transmission time of the microwaves in the first microwave module and the second microwave module is small in magnitude, for example, generally in the order of several ms. When the user takes the commodity out of the unmanned vending machine, the transmission time length can be changed for multiple times, the selection of the preset time period can be in the order of magnitude of 10-30 times of the transmission time length, so that whether the transmission time length is unchanged or not can be determined, and whether the commodity in the unmanned vending machine is in a static state or not can be further determined.
It should be noted that the transmission duration of the microwave transmission in each period is determined as follows: the first microwave module sends out a first number (for example, 100) of microwaves to the second microwave module, and when the second microwave module receives a second number (the second number is a preset percentage of the first number, for example, the preset percentage is 90%, that is, the second number is 90) of microwaves, the average transmission time length used by the second microwave module to receive the second number of microwaves is calculated, and the average transmission time length is used as the transmission time length of each transmission of microwaves.
However, since the determined transmission time duration of the microwave transmitted in each period is only the transmission time duration measured when the first microwave module transmits the microwave to the second microwave module, the accuracy of the measurement method may be low.
In one embodiment of the present invention, to improve the measurement accuracy of the transmission duration, the transmission duration may be determined as follows. The second microwave module is also used for emitting microwaves, and the first microwave module is also used for receiving the microwaves emitted by the second microwave module; when the commodity is in a static state, the transmission time length is determined by the following steps:
the method comprises the steps that microwaves with time stamps are sent to a second microwave module by a first microwave module, wherein the time stamps are the time when the first microwave module sends the microwaves to the second microwave module;
the method comprises the steps that a second microwave module is utilized to send microwaves carrying first response time length to a first microwave module, wherein the first response time length is a difference value between the time when the second microwave module receives the microwaves sent by the first microwave module and the time when the second microwave module sends the microwaves to the first microwave module;
determining a first receiving time length, wherein the first receiving time length is a difference value between the time when the first microwave module receives the microwaves sent by the second microwave module and the timestamp;
the method comprises the steps that a first microwave module is utilized to send microwaves with second response time length to a second microwave module, wherein the second response time length is the difference value between the time when the first microwave module receives the microwaves sent by the second microwave module and the time when the first microwave module sends the microwaves to the second microwave module;
determining a second receiving time length, wherein the second receiving time length is a difference value between the moment when the second microwave module receives the microwaves sent by the first microwave module for the second time and the moment when the second microwave module sends the microwaves to the first microwave module;
the transmission time length is determined by the following formula:
Tch=(Tjs1*Tjs2-Txy1*Txy2)/(Tjs1+Tjs2+Txy1+Txy2)
wherein, TchFor characterizing the transmission duration, Tjs1For characterizing a first receiving duration, Tjs2For characterizing a second receiving duration, Txy1For characterizing a first response duration, Txy2For characterizing the second response duration.
It should be noted that the derivation process of the above formula is as follows:
Tjs1=2*Tch+Txy1… … equation (1)
Tjs2=2*Tch+Txy2… … equation (2)
Equation (1) × equation (2) is cross-linked, and we can get:
Tjs1*Tjs2-Txy1*Txy2=2*Tch(2*Tch+Txy1+Txy2) … … equation (3)
By combining equation (1) and equation (3), we can obtain:
Tjs1*Tjs2-Txy1*Txy2=2*Tch(Tjs1+Txy2) … … equation (4)
By combining equation (2) and equation (3), we can obtain:
Tjs1*Tjs2-Txy1*Txy2=2*Tch(Tjs2+Txy1) … … equation (5)
By combining equation (4) and equation (5), we can obtain:
Tch=(Tjs1*Tjs2-Txy1*Txy2)/(2*(Tjs1+Txy2) … … equation (6)
Tch=(Tjs1*Tjs2-Txy1*Txy2)/(2*(Tjs2+Txy1) … … equation (7)
And because:
Tjs1+Txy2+Tch=Tjs2+Txy1+Tch
namely:
Tjs1+Txy2=Tjs2+Txy1
thus:
2*(Tjs1+Txy2)=(Tjs1+Txy2)+(Tjs1+Txy2)=(2*(Tjs2+Txy1);
thus: equation (6) and equation (7) can be converted simultaneously to:
Tch=(Tjs1*Tjs2-Txy1*Txy2)/(Tjs1+Tjs2+Txy1+Txy2)。
the transmission time obtained through the calculation can greatly reduce the clock error between the first microwave module and the second microwave module, and is beneficial to improving the measurement accuracy of the transmission time.
And 102, inputting the transmission time difference into a pre-trained neural network model to obtain the time variation of the commodities in two adjacent static states.
In practice, for the product taken out from the unmanned vending machine, the quantity of change of the quantity of the product becomes a positive value when the product is in two adjacent static states, for example, the quantity of the product between the first microwave module and the second microwave module is 10, and the corresponding transmission time length is 10 ms; after 1 commodity is taken out, the number of the commodities is changed into 9, the corresponding transmission time length is 8.5ms (because the commodities are few, the transmission rate of microwave is increased, and the transmission time length is reduced), the transmission time difference is 1.5ms, and the number variation of the commodities in the adjacent two static states is 1 by inputting the 1.5ms into a pre-trained neural network model. It should be noted that if there are 2 or more commodities to be taken out and the difference of the transmission time is 1.5ms, the result (i.e. the amount change) output by the neural network model is not unique, so that the unique result can be determined by means of weight identification, which will be described in detail below.
And 103, determining the weight of each type of commodity in the static state.
Since the standard weight of each kind of product (i.e. the standard weight carried on the product package or the product information, such as a bag of instant noodles of a certain type, the standard weight is 100g) is fixed, but the actual weight may have an error from the standard weight, and the error will gradually increase as the number of products taken out increases, it is necessary to take the number of taken-out products (i.e. the number variation) into account.
In this step, the method specifically includes the following steps:
and A1, determining the number variable of each type of commodity.
In step a1, the number variable of each type of article does not exceed the value obtained by rounding up the ratio of the total weight change amount when the article is in the two adjacent stationary states to the initial weight of the article, and the sum of the number variables of each type of article is not less than the amount change amount when the article is in the two adjacent stationary states, and the initial weight of the article is the weight determined in the immediately preceding adjacent stationary state.
For example, the total weight change amount of the article in two adjacent static states is 1390g, the initial weight of the article a is 600g (the initial weight is the standard weight, such as 600g, in the first calculation), the initial weight of the article B is 500g (the initial weight is the standard weight, such as 300g, in the first calculation), the initial weight of the article C is 700g (the initial weight is the standard weight, such as 200g, in the first calculation), the number variable of the a commodities does not exceed 3 (where 3 is a value rounded up to the ratio of 1390 and 600), the number variable of the B commodities does not exceed 3 (where 3 is a value rounded up to the ratio of 1390 and 500), the number variable of the C commodities does not exceed 2 (where 2 is a value rounded up to the ratio of 1390 and 700), and the amount of change is 8 or less (i.e., 3+3+ 2).
And A2, determining the weight of each type of commodity in the current static state according to the quantity change quantity when the commodity is in the two adjacent static states, the quantity variable of each type of commodity and the weight error average value determined before the current static state of the commodity.
In step a2, following step a1, for example, since the weights of the two C commodities are closer to 1390g, the weight error at this time is 10g (i.e. 1400-.
In this embodiment, the amount of change in the number of the commodities in the two adjacent stationary states, the number variable of each kind of commodities, and the average value of the weight errors of the commodities determined before the present stationary state are taken into account in the weight of the commodities, so that the accuracy of commodity identification can be improved.
Further, step a2 is specifically implemented as follows.
For example, the weights of various kinds of commodities at the present static state are determined by the following formula sets:
Figure BDA0002820508880000121
wherein, Wn2For characterizing the weight of the nth kind of goods in the present static stateAn amount; wn1The weight of the nth commodity in the last adjacent static state or the initial weight of the nth commodity in the current static state is represented; xnError coefficients for characterizing the nth commodity; y is used for representing the compensation coefficient; wtotalThe weight change quantity of the commodity in two adjacent static states is represented; w11The weight of the 1 st commodity in the last adjacent static state or the initial weight of the 1 st commodity in the current static state is represented; c1The number variable is used for representing the number variable of the 1 st type commodity in the two adjacent static states; cnThe number variable is used for representing the number variable of the nth commodity in the two adjacent static states; t iscThe quantity variation quantity is used for representing the quantity variation quantity when the commodity is in two adjacent static states; and E, representing the weight error mean value determined before the static state of the commodity.
Following the example of steps a1 and a2, the mean value of the weight error determined before the current static state of the commercial product is 5g, the initial weight of the C commercial product at the current static state is 700g, the error coefficient of the C commercial product is 0.007 (i.e., 5/7), the compensation coefficient is-0.005 (i.e., (1390-. By correcting the weight of the product each time the product is removed from the unmanned merchandiser (i.e., taking into account the error and compensation coefficients), the accuracy of identifying the product removed from the merchandiser may be improved.
And 104, identifying the type and the quantity of the commodities taken out of the unmanned vending machine according to the quantity variation of the commodities in the two adjacent static states, the total weight variation of the commodities in the two adjacent static states and the weight of various commodities in the static state.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the type and number of the goods taken out from the vending machine may be specifically identified by the following steps:
identifying a taking-out result of the commodity taken out of the unmanned vending machine according to the total weight variation of the commodity in the two adjacent static states and the weights of various commodities in the static state;
and determining the type and the quantity of the taken-out commodities in the taking-out result according to the quantity variation of the commodities in the two adjacent static states.
As an example, if the total weight change of the product in the two adjacent static states is 3000g, i.e. the weight of the product taken out from the vending machine is 3000g, the above step a1 can be performed as follows: 1) 5A commodities; 2) 6B commercial products.

Since the weight of the product A was 600g in the removal result 1), and the weight of the product B was 500g in the removal result 2). Therefore, the unique commodity taking-out result can be accurately determined in the taking-out result by judging the weight variation of the commodity in the two adjacent static states, so that the accuracy of identifying the commodity taken out of the vending machine can be improved.
