Image recognition apparatus, processing method thereof, and program

A processing method of an image recognition apparatus, the method being executed by the image recognition apparatus, the method comprising:

• storing, in a memory, a plurality of pieces of position data, wherein each piece of the position data indicates a relative position between a detection target object and each of a plurality of products, the plurality of products including a first product and a second product;
• acquiring image data which includes the detection target object positioned relative to the first product and the second product in a manner consistent with the plurality of pieces of position data;
• recognizing, by image recognition, the detection target object in the image data based on at least two feature points of the detection target object in the image data, wherein a first feature point among the at least two feature points is common to the detection target object and the first product, and wherein a second feature point among the at least two feature points is common to the detection target object and the second product;
• by accessing the memory, determining the plurality of pieces of position data which are stored in association with the at least two features points in the memory on the basis of the recognized detection target object;
• determining the first product and the second product in the image data on the basis of respective pieces of the position data determined by accessing the memory;
• and
• executing a process based on the determination of the first product and the second product.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions adapted to enable a hardware processor of a computer to implement a wireless communication system by performing operations comprising:

• storing, in a memory, a plurality of pieces of position data, wherein each piece of the position data indicates a relative position between a detection target object and each of a plurality of products, the plurality of products including a first product and a second product;
• acquiring image data which includes the detection target object positioned relative to the first product and the second product in a manner consistent with the plurality of pieces of position data;
• recognizing, by image recognition, the detection target object in the image data based on at least two feature points of the detection target object in the image data, wherein a first feature point among the at least two feature points is common to the detection target object and the first product, and wherein a second feature point among the at least two feature points is common to the detection target object and the second product;
• by accessing the memory, determining the plurality of pieces of position data which are stored in association with the at least two features points in the memory on the basis of the recognized detection target object;
• determining the first product and the second product in the image data on the basis of respective pieces of the position data determined by accessing the memory;
• and
• executing a process based on the determination of the first product and the second product.
