Abstract:
A tracking system includes a set of cameras, a kiosk, and a tracking server. The kiosk receives a payment amount from a person. The tracking server extracts features of the person from an image feed received from the set of cameras. The tracking server generates a session identifier that is associated with the payment amount and a unique code. The unique code represents at least one of the payment amount and features of the person. The tracking server sends a message to the kiosk to provide a ticket corresponding to the payment amount and the unique code to the person. The tracking server receives a digital cart associated with the person comprising items and a total cash value of the items. The tracking server concludes a transaction by deducting the total cash value from the payment amount.
