米国において、本出願は、2011年8月30日に出願された同時係属仮出願第61/529,214号、2011年9月6日に出願された同時係属仮出願第61/531,525号、及び2011年9月9日に出願された同時係属仮出願第61/533,079号に対する優先権を主張する2011年9月13日に出願された出願第13/231,893号の一部同時係属出願である。本出願は、2011年9月21日に出願された仮出願第61/537,523号、及び、2012年8月24日に出願された第61/693,225号に対する優先権の利益も主張する。
この透かしパターンを持つ製品の表面がカメラから離れる方向に上方に45度傾斜している場合でも、上記一覧の構成タイル#8は容易に読み取ることができる。すなわち、45度の上への物理的な傾斜がタイル#8の30度の下向きのアフィン変換を打ち消して、正味15度の見かけの上方への歪みを生じさせ、これは透かし復号器の読み取り範囲に十分に入る。
本技術のさらに別の態様は、例えば小売の精算で積み重ねられた商品の識別に関する。

図34に示す不確定区域は、人間の店員(又は他のシステム構成要素)に注目されるものであるが、算出された信頼度の尺度を使用して、閾値で定義することができる。例えば、物体3の信頼度の尺度が(1〜100の段階で)20であり、且つ物体1、2、4、及び5の信頼度の尺度がそれぞれ97、80、70、及び97である場合は、信頼度の尺度が50未満の物体に関連する不確定区域を強調表示するように閾値が設定されると、不確定区域は図34に表すようになる。
上記では、小売の精算所にある搬送ベルトに関連する各種の革新について述べた。それらの革新の大半は、(1)物体認識を支援して処理量及び精度を向上させる、(2)買い物客に対する新規の機能、及び(3)広告主に対する利益、の3つの部類の1つに該当すると考えることができる。
購入商品を識別する際に考慮されるセンサからの証拠は、精算所で収集する必要はない。例えば、屋内位置特定技術(例えば買い物客又は買い物客のカートが携行する装置を使用して信号を感知又は発信し、その信号から位置を判定する。例えば異なる通路では異なるLED照明の明滅や変調を感知する。又は位置に関する他の形態の信号を感知する)、又は天井、床、若しくは棚に取り付けられたカメラや他のセンサ等で、店内で買い物客を通る順路を監視する実施を考えたい。買い物客がCampbellスープの棚の前で15秒間立ち止まった場合、このデータは、精算で撮影された画像からバーコードや他の識別情報を判別できない場合でも、図31で見えている円筒形の形状がスープの缶であるという仮定を強化する助けとなる。
本明細書に詳細に説明される技術の特定の実施では、ロバストな特徴の記述子(例えばSIFT、SURF、及びORB)を用いて物体の識別を支援する。
例示的な特徴及び例を参照して本発明の原理を説明し、例示したが、本技術は上記に限定されないことが認識されよう。
本明細書には各種の実施形態を詳細に記載する。ある実施形態との関係で記載される方法、要素、及び概念は、他の実施形態との関連で記載される方法、要素、及び概念と組み合わせることが可能であることを理解されたい。そのような構成のいくつかを詳細に説明したが、置換及び組み合わせの数が多数あるため多くは記載していない。ただし、そのようなすべての組み合わせは、ここに提供される教示から当業者には平易に実施することができる。
