ACTION DETECTION SYSTEM, ACTION DETECTION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240096182 titled 'ACTION DETECTION SYSTEM, ACTION DETECTION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The action detection system described in the patent application is designed to analyze video data of a user interacting with a checkout machine. The system extracts skeleton information from the video and uses it to identify specific actions performed by the user. It then compares these actions to pre-registered action sequences to determine if they match. Based on this comparison, the system executes predetermined processing tasks.

  • Action detection system:
   * Analyzes video data of a user at a checkout machine
   * Extracts skeleton information to identify user actions
   * Compares actions to pre-registered sequences
   * Executes predetermined processing tasks based on the comparison

Potential Applications

The technology could be applied in various industries such as retail, security, and healthcare for monitoring and analyzing user actions in different scenarios.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient monitoring and analysis of user actions in specific environments. 2. Automation of processing tasks based on detected actions.

Benefits

1. Improved security and surveillance capabilities. 2. Enhanced user experience through automated processing. 3. Streamlined operations in various industries.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing retail store layouts, enhancing security systems, improving healthcare monitoring processes.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be motion capture technology used in the entertainment industry for creating realistic animations based on human movements.

=== What are the technical specifications of the action specification unit in the system? The technical specifications of the action specification unit, such as the algorithms used for identifying actions based on skeleton information, are not detailed in the abstract.

=== How does the determination unit differentiate between various action sequences? The abstract does not provide information on how the determination unit distinguishes between different action sequences or the criteria used for comparison.


Original Abstract Submitted

an action detection system () includes an action specification unit () configured to start specification of at least one action id based on at least part of skeleton information extracted from video data that is a captured video of a user in response to detection of the user visiting checkout machine determined in advance, a determination unit () configured to determine whether or not an action sequence including the specified at least one action id corresponds to registration action sequences registered in advance, and a processing control unit () configured to execute processing determined in advance in accordance with a determination result.
