Abstract
A controller using image processing to identify produce is disclosed herein. The controller may include one or more memories and one or more processors communicatively coupled to the one or more memories. In some implementations, a controller may receive a trigger associated with presence of an item at a product processing zone. The controller may capture, via an imager, an image representing the item. Accordingly, the controller may apply a first convolutional neural network (CNN) to the image to determine a bounding box associated with the item. The controller may determine that the item within the bounding box satisfies an occlusion threshold and may apply a second CNN to the image to determine a query image representation. Accordingly, the controller may receive, from a database, an indication of one or more candidate items based on the query image representation and indicate, via a user interface, the candidate item(s).
