20120292394 | CODE READING APPARATUS AND METHOD - A code reading apparatus, comprising: an image capturing unit configured to capture the image picked-up by a image pickup unit; a detection unit configured to detect the code contained in the captured image; a decoding unit configured to decode the detected code; and a recognition unit configured to recognize, if the detected code is a two-dimensional code, the model number of the two-dimensional code. The decoding unit decodes the detected two-dimensional code if the model number recognized is a predetermined model number. | 11-22-2012 |
20140126775 | COMMODITY RECOGNITION APPARATUS AND COMMODITY RECOGNITION METHOD - A commodity recognition apparatus comprises an image interface, a memory and a processor. The image interface is configured to acquire a commodity image captured by a camera. The memory is configured to store a candidate of a commodity recognized from the commodity image acquired by the image interface. The processor is configured to try to read a commodity recognition code from the commodity image acquired by the image interface and reset the candidate of the commodity stored in the memory if the commodity recognition code is read. | 05-08-2014 |
20140153786 | COMMODITY RECOGNITION APPARATUS AND COMMODITY RECOGNITION METHOD - A commodity recognition apparatus comprises an image interface configured to acquire the image of a commodity photographed by a camera and a processor configured to detect a commodity image from the images acquired via the image interface, carry out a commodity recognition processing for recognizing commodity candidates according to the feature amount extracted from the commodity image and a code reading processing for reading a commodity recognition code from the same commodity image in parallel, and as a result determine a commodity recognition code if the commodity recognition code is read through the code reading processing or output the result of the commodity recognition processing if no commodity recognition code is read and the photographing period for the commodity is ended. | 06-05-2014 |
20150278591 | COMMODITY RECOGNITION APPARATUS AND COMMODITY RECOGNITION METHOD - A commodity recognition apparatus comprises an image interface configured to acquire the image of a commodity photographed by a camera and a processor configured to detect a commodity image from the images acquired via the image interface, carry out a commodity recognition processing for recognizing commodity candidates according to the feature amount extracted from the commodity image and a code reading processing for reading a commodity recognition code from the same commodity image in parallel, and as a result determine a commodity recognition code if the commodity recognition code is read through the code reading processing or output the result of the commodity recognition processing if no commodity recognition code is read and the photographing period for the commodity is ended. | 10-01-2015 |

20150063638 | COMMODITY REGISTRATION APPARATUS AND COMMODITY REGISTRATION METHOD - In accordance with one embodiment, a commodity registration apparatus recognizes and registers a commodity on the basis of a commodity image captured by an image capturing section, and detects whether or not there is a barcode in the captured commodity image. In a case in which a barcode is detected, the commodity-recognition registration based on the captured commodity image is restrained. In this way, it is prevented that the commodity registration processing based on image recognition is carried out in spite that a barcode is attached, which can reduce the waste of processing time. | 03-05-2015 |
20150063639 | COMMODITY REGISTRATION APPARATUS AND COMMODITY REGISTRATION METHOD - A commodity is learnt and stored in an HDD on the basis of a commodity image captured by an image capturing section. Commodity registration is carried out through a key input. The commodity which is not stored in the HDD yet is stored in the HDD as commodity data when the commodity registration is carried out through a key input, in this way, the registration as a learnt commodity is realized. Then the target commodity captured by the image capturing section is read from the commodity data stored in the HDD. In this way, the commodity image can be added and learnt based on that the unregistered commodity is input through a key operation by the operator. | 03-05-2015 |
