Behavior analysis system based on person-object position relationship
The patent application (Publication Number: US20240037776A1) describes an analysis system that includes multiple apparatuses for detecting the position of a person and an object in a space. The system further comprises an analysis apparatus that analyzes the behavior of the person in response to the object based on the relationship between their positions. The analysis is also based on temporal changes in the positions of the person and the object, including factors like movement, stay duration, and relative distance.
Additionally, the system can analyze buying behavior based on changes in the height of a product, calculate an evaluation score for buyer willingness to purchase, and acquire information on buyer attributes for behavior analysis. The system can also perform hot-selling analysis, inventory management, and monitor buyer movements. The patent application further includes variations of the analysis system, such as one that identifies a person entering a space and analyzes their behavior based on captured images. Another aspect of the patent application covers an analysis apparatus and a non-transitory storage medium storing an analysis program that enables a computer to function as a position acquisition unit and behavior analysis unit for analyzing person behavior in response to an object based on their positions.
