Abstract
A system and method for identifying objects being carried by an operator who is approaching an instrument. The system includes image-, motion-, and depth-capturing sensors that are in communication with the instrument. The captured image, motion, and depth data are compared to data stored in a database and the objects are identified. Once the objects have been identified, an action that corresponds to the identified objects is initiated in the instrument.
