How Smart Kiosk Works

Data Collection And Model Training
Bullet

The journey begins with the meticulous collection of product data. Fixed cameras with proper lighting are strategically positioned at the kiosk to capture multiple videos of products being taken out from various angles and pacing. Utilizing Computer Vision, we extract frames from these videos and carefully select the ones where the product is clearly visible.

Bullet

As one of the fastest and most advanced machine learning models available, YOLO significantly enhances the training process. The output yields a PyTorch model, empowering us to employ the ComputerVision ML library for product detection. With this we seamlessly detect products within the frame, making Smart Kiosk’s automatic product detection a reality.

Next comes the crucial process of annotation using the VGG annotation tool. Each object in the frames is manually annotated, with endpoints or borders precisely marked for all products. This one-time process during model training ensures accurate detection.

The annotated data is stored in a JSON file, from which we create a .txt file containing object labels represented by pixel coordinates in the frames. This final data becomes the foundation for our system/model to study products for detection.

Bullet

Our chosen ML model, YOLO (You Only Look Once), sets the stage for remarkable training efficiency. By importing YOLO from the Ultralytics library, we input the folder file path containing images and corresponding .txt files, along with a yolo format (.yaml) file with video, frames, and validation information.

Real-Time Product Detection

When you take a product from the kiosk, our system captures a video and quickly processes it into frames. Intelligent detection algorithms meticulously scan these frames, identifying the visible products. The selected frames are then precisely annotated and transformed into labeled images and corresponding .txt files. Our trained model efficiently compares these frames with the training data, swiftly finding suitable matches. This seamless and automated process ensures that your shopping journey with Smart Kiosk is effortless and enjoyable.

icon
Real-Time Notifications And Feedback

Smart Kiosk revolutionizes your shopping experience with instant product detection. As you take out your purchased items, our app swiftly marks them as taken, ensuring a hassle-free checkout process. Stay informed every step of the way with real-time notifications – whether it’s for additional items taken, missed items or payments. Our app also empowers administrators with comprehensive control, receiving timely updates on user reports, payment status, low-stock items, and kiosk closures.
