Abstract: A computer system for predicting an anomaly behavior (fraudulent behavior) for a user of a smart shopping cart (physical receptacle). The computer system gathers data associated with a physical activity of the user, the user being physically present at a location of a retailer and adding one or more items from the location of the retailer to the physical receptacle. The computer system applies a computer model to detect, based on the gathered data, one or more anomalies during the physical activity of the user, the one or more anomalies being indicative of the fraudulent behavior. In response to determining that the one or more detected anomalies satisfy a threshold condition for the fraudulent behavior, the computer system sends a communication to a management system of the retailer to cause at least one remedial action to be performed before the user physically leaves the location of the retailer.

Abstract: A shopping cart's tracking system receives wheel motion data from a plurality of wheel sensors coupled to a plurality of wheels of the shopping cart, wherein the wheel motion data describes rotation of the plurality of wheels and orientation of the plurality of wheels. The tracking system predicts an estimated location of the shopping cart by applying a machine-learning location model to the wheel motion data. The machine-learning location model is trained with training examples that are generated by: receiving prior wheel motion data from the plurality of wheel sensors, partitioning the prior wheel motion data into a plurality of segments using a time window, receiving one or more baseline locations at one or more prior timestamps, and generating one or more training examples, each training example comprising a segment of prior wheel motion data and a baseline location with a timestamp overlapping the segment.

Abstract: A shopping cart's tracking system determines a baseline location of the shopping cart at a first timestamp with a wireless device located on the shopping cart detecting one or more external wireless devices (e.g., RFID tags). The shopping cart's tracking system receives wheel motion data from one or more wheel sensors coupled to one or more wheels of the shopping cart, wherein the wheel motion data describes rotation and orientation of the one or more wheels. The shopping cart's tracking system calculates a translation traveled by the shopping cart from the baseline location based on the wheel motion data. The shopping cart's tracking system determines an estimated location of the shopping cart at a second timestamp based on the baseline location and the translation. The shopping cart provides functionality with the estimated location.

CPC classification number: G06Q10/087 , G06V20/52
Abstract: An online concierge system may use images received from shopping carts within retailers to determine the availability of items within those retailers. A shopping cart includes externally-facing cameras that automatically capture images of the area around the shopping cart as the shopping cart travels through a retailer. The online concierge system receives these images, which depict displays within the retailers from which a picker or a retailer patron can collect items. The online concierge system determines which items should be depicted in the images and which items are actually depicted in the images. The online concierge system identifies which items should be depicted, but are not depicted, and determines that these items are unavailable (e.g., out of stock) at that retailer. The online concierge system updates an availability database to indicate that these items are unavailable and may notify the retailer that the item is unavailable.

Abstract: An automated checkout system uses a shopping cart that is automatically charged when stacked into another shopping cart. Each shopping cart has a front charging connector and a rear charging connector. When a first shopping cart is stacked into a second shopping cart, the front charging connector of the first shopping cart connects with the rear charging connector of the second shopping cart. Electrical power can flow to the first shopping cart via the second shopping cart to charge a battery of the first shopping cart. The second shopping cart may be similarly stacked into a third shopping cart, wherein the second shopping cart receives electrical power from the third shopping cart. The second shopping cart may use this electrical power to charge its own battery or may provide some or all of the electrical power to the first shopping cart to charge the first shopping cart's battery.
