Zusammenfassung:An automated inventory intelligence system and methods are provided for authenticating identities of customers to facilitate expedited user purchases. The automated inventory intelligence system includes a facial recognition logic for analyzing one or more captured images of a customer, and a voice recognition logic for analyzing voice samples. Customers may be identified using customer matching logic. The facial recognition logic receives multiple views of the customer with a multiplicity of facial recognition cameras coupled with a retail shelving unit. The voice recognition module receives multiple voice samples with a multiplicity of microphones that may be coupled with the retail shelving unit. Customers may be matched with a corresponding customer account to facilitate purchases at the shelving unit based on payment information associated with the customer account.
