Technologies are described herein for converting the output of a pressure sensitive mat into an image and processing the image to identify the products present on the mat. An example system includes a processor configured to read pressure values from the plurality of pressure sensors on the pressure sensitive mat and generate an image with each pixel in the image encoding a value corresponding to a pressure value read from the pressure sensitive mat. A server may be configured to receive the image from the processor and process the image to identify one or more types of products that may be present on the pressure sensitive mat for each product package detected to be present on the pressure sensitive mat based on a combination of two or more of a shape of the product package, one or more dimensions of the product package, or a weight of the product package.
