Claim 0:
1. An object-identification system comprising:
an image sensor configured to capture images of objects disposed in an area designated for holding objects; and
a controller in communication with the image sensor to receive images captured by the image sensor and further in communication with a deep neural network, the controller including one or more processors configured to: submit an image captured by the image sensor to the deep neural network to determine if the deep neural network recognizes an object in the image, detect a location of the object in the image submitted to the deep neural network while the object is in the area irrespective of whether the deep neural network recognizes the object in the submitted image, and retrain the deep neural network using the submitted image and object information about the detected object and the location of the object if the deep neural network is unable to recognize the object in the submitted image.
