Abstract

This disclosure is directed to item-identifying carts that may generate and store image data of items being placed into, or removed from, the carts in the event that a cart is unable to recognize an item. For example, the cart may analyze frames of generated image data, representing item(s) being placed into or removed from the cart, to determine which one or more frames to store. If the cart is later unable to identify such an item, the cart may retrieve one or more of the stored frames, generate a user interface (UI) that includes these frame(s) and a request that a user operating the cart to help identify the item, and present the UI on a display of the cart.
