Solving #Vision Problem - #Amazon Way - Object Detection

To detect objects in Conveyer, How does Amazon Solve it?

Challenge - Field Of View, Dataset, and Occlusion is always a challenge to detecting objects

Solution - The first step was simply to take pictures of products as they moved along conveyor belts in fulfillment centers, building up a library of images. This gives a consistent environment

Challenge - Different speeds of products moved in the Conveyer belt?

Solution - On a conveyor belt, the lighting and the speed of the item are relatively controlled and constant.

Challenge - What features we can leverage to match?

Solution - Product Dimension, Visual features, text

Summary from post

#Datascience #production #computervision 

Sometimes a combination of techniques, simplifying/restricting the target environment to a certain position/view/conditions is good enough to get a good first-cut working solution.

Keep Exploring!!!
