Abstract:
A method for identifying and tracking objects includes: capturing one or more 3-D models of one or more objects in a scene using a three-dimensional (3-D) scanning system, the one or more 3-D models including color and geometry information of the one or more objects; and computing, by an analysis agent, one or more descriptors of the one or more 3-D models, each descriptor corresponding to a fixed-length feature vector; and retrieving metadata identifying the one or more objects based on the one or more descriptors.

Claim (Index 18):
A retail checkout system comprising:\n a first three-dimensional (3-D) scanning system configured to scan color and geometry of one or more goods in a shopping basket to generate one or more first 3-D models; a second 3-D scanning system configured to scan color and geometry of one or more goods in a shopping bag to generate one or more second 3-D models; a first analysis agent comprising a first processor and first memory, the first memory storing instructions that, when executed by the first processor, cause the first processor to\n receive the one or more first 3-D models from the first 3-D scanning system; \n compute one or more first descriptors of the one or more first 3-D models; and \n identify the one or more goods in the shopping basket based on the one or more first descriptors of the one or more first 3-D models; \n a second analysis agent comprising a second processor and second memory, the second memory storing instructions that, when executed by the second processor, cause the second processor to:\n receive the one or more second 3-D models from the second 3-D scanning system; \n compute one or more second descriptors of the one or more second 3-D models; and \n identify the one or more goods in the shopping bag based on the one or more second descriptors of the one or more second 3-D models; and \n a check-out controller system comprising a third processor and a third memory, the third memory storing instructions that, when executed by the third processor, cause the third processor to monitor movement of the one or more goods from the shopping basket into the shopping bag.
