Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for tracking objects in a store. One of the methods includes receiving, by one or more first computing devices, data captured by one or more sensors in the store; identifying, by the one or more first computing devices, a plurality of objects based on the received data, wherein the identified objects comprise one or more persons and one or more product items; extracting, by the one or more first computing devices, a plurality of features associated with each of the identified objects; generating, by the one or more first computing devices, a digest comprising information of the extracted features associated with the identified objects; and sending, by the one or more first computing devices, the digest to one or more second computing devices for processing.

Method and system for tracking objects in an automated-checkout store based on distributed computing

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for tracking a product item in an automated-checkout store. One of the methods includes receiving, from a plurality of sensors, data collected by the sensors, identifying an account associated with a person who enters the store, receiving data on movement of the product item collected by one or more of the sensors, determining an interaction between the person and the product item based on the data collected by one or more of the sensors, storing information associating the product item with the person; and deducting a payment amount from the identified account, wherein the payment amount is based on a price of the product item associated with the person.
