Abstract
Images of a transaction area comprising items are received during a checkout. Red-Green-Blue (RGB) data and Depth data are received with each image. Pixels captured in any given image by a given camera are pre-aligned with physical locations of a transaction area. Depth data provided by each camera and that camera's pre-alignment to the area are processed to map pixels in each image taken to X-Y coordinates within the area. X-Y coordinates for each item and for each image are grouped together as a single item within the area. RGB data for each image and item is used as a set of image patches per item. For each item, the corresponding patches are passed to a classification Machine-Learning Model (MLM) that returns an item code for each patch. A particular item code is selected for each set and the item codes are used to process the checkout.
