Registry verification with authentication using a mobile device
A mechanized store uses a mobile device to authenticate the user. Items removed from one or more displays of the mechanized store by the user are tracked and a list of items removed by the user is updated. The list of items removed is linked with an account of the user.
1. A system for a mechanized store having one or more displays in an area and a plurality of items at the one or more displays, the system comprising:
one or more sensors; and
one or more processors configured to:
authenticate a user, using a mobile device of the user;
track, using the one or more sensors, items removed by the user from the one or more displays by the user;
update a list of items removed by the user from the one or more displays, based on tracking the items removed;
modify a digital shopping basket, corresponding to items removed by the user, based on an input from the user;
compare a number of items removed, from the list of items removed, to a number of items in the digital shopping basket; and
link the list with an account of the user.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more sensors are one or more cameras.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to count the number of items removed from the one or more displays using the one or more cameras to identify movement of a hand and determine if the hand is holding an item.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein authenticating the user comprises using a near-field communication (NFC) link with the mobile device of the user.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein authenticating the user comprises using a code.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the code is a barcode.
7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the code is configured to be read by the mobile device of the user.
8. The system of claim 5 , wherein the code is configured to be presented on the mobile device of the user.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein authenticating the user comprises using a wireless connection with the mobile device of the user.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to track the user, using the one or more sensors.
11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to track the user by tracking the mobile device of the user.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the input from the user is received from a screen of the mobile device.
13. A method for operating a mechanized store, the method comprising:
authenticating a user, using a mobile device of the user;
tracking, using one or more sensors, items removed by the user from one or more displays by the user;
updating a list of items removed by the user from the one or more displays, based on tracking the items removed;
modifying a digital shopping basket, corresponding to items removed by the user, based on input from the user;
compare a number of items removed, from the list of items removed, to a number of items in the digital shopping basket; and
linking the list with an account of the user.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the one or more sensors are cameras.
15. The method of claim 13 , wherein authenticating the user comprises using a near-field communication (NFC) link with the mobile device of the user.
16. The method of claim 13 , wherein authenticating the user comprises using a code.
17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the code is a barcode.
18. The method of claim 13 , further comprising tracking the user in the mechanized store.
19. One or more memory devices comprising instructions that when executed cause one or more processors to perform the following steps:
authenticating a user, using a mobile device of the user;
tracking, using one or more sensors, items removed by the user from one or more displays by the user;
updating a list of items removed by the user from the one or more displays, based on tracking the items removed;
modifying a digital shopping basket, corresponding to items removed by the user, based on input from the user;
compare a number of items removed, from the list of items removed, to a number of items in the digital shopping basket; and
linking the list with an account of the user.
20. The one or more memory devices of claim 19 , wherein the one or more sensors include one or more cameras.
