First Claim
1. An apparatus for managing data used for object recognition, comprising:
- an image capturing unit configured to capture an image of an object;
a storage unit storing image data of products registered for sale;
an operation panel configured to receive a user selection; and
a processor configured to determine the products registered for sale that are similar to the object, based on the captured image and the image data, display the similar products on the operation panel as user selectable items, determine one or more of the similar products designated by the user selection, and invalidate the designated similar products so that efficiency of object recognition by the apparatus can be improved.
