Patent attributes
A food inventory tracking system within a refrigerated food storage compartment includes cameras configured for capturing images of food, load cell sensors for taking weight measurements of food and a computing system for reading images from the cameras and weight measurements from the load cell sensors, generating a three-dimensional location map of an interior of the refrigerated food storage compartment, mapping the images and weight measurements to segments of the three-dimensional location map, such that each segment of the three-dimensional location map is associated with images and weight measurements, identifying a type of food item within said segments based on the images and weight measurements associated with said segment, calculating a current amount of said food item based reporting to a user the type of said food item and the amount of said food item.
