Abstract

Assisted checkout devices, including point-of-sale stations, can use computer vision and machine learning to speed the checkout process while maintaining human verification, assistance, and customer interaction provided by human clerks. A plurality of optical sensors, including cameras, can be arranged with different views of a checkout plane upon which items being purchased by a buyer are placed. Moreover, one or more support towers can be utilized to elevate the optical sensors to vertical heights at which the checkout plane, and items placed thereon, is within the field of view of the optical sensors. The information captured by the plurality of optical sensors can be analyzed using machine learning models to detect and identify the items placed on the checkout plane.
