Abstract

Systems and techniques are provided for tracking puts and takes of inventory items by subjects in an area of real space. A plurality of cameras with overlapping fields of view produce respective sequences of images of corresponding fields of view in the real space. A processing system is coupled to the system. In one embodiment, the processing system comprises image recognition engines receiving corresponding sequences of images from the plurality of cameras. The image recognition engines process the images in the corresponding sequences to identify subjects represented in the images and generate classifications of the identified subjects. The system processes the classifications of identified subjects for sets of images in the sequences of images to detect takes and puts of inventory items on shelves by identified subjects.
