Abstract
Objects are located. Locations of objects in an area are tracked using a sensor system monitoring the area. Whether a user is performing an object search in the area is determined based on a sequence of actions detected by the sensor system for the user in the area. An identity of an object that is a subject of the object search by the user is inferred using the sequence of actions and a history of patterns of actions performed by the user searching for objects in response to a determination that the user is performing the object search. The user is guided to the object using a last tracked location for the object in the locations of objects tracked by the sensor system in response to inferring identify of the object that is the subject of the object search by the user.
