Smart Shopping Trolley

Abstract

Nowadays, using barcodes on products comes with several drawbacks, including low range, reduced security, and the need for line of sight. We suggested a solution in our project that makes use of radio frequency identification, or RFID. This technique offers a way to cut down on the amount of time spent grocery shopping. Shopping trolleys are used by every supermarket to assist shoppers in choosing the items they want to buy. Customers may experience a variety of issues at the billing counter, such as waiting and not knowing if they have enough money to pay for the goods they have chosen. The innovative product that receives social recognition is the one that will direct comfort, accommodation, and efficiency in day-to-day living. Purchasing and shopping at massive malls are becoming less commonplace in metro areas daily. A wide range of goods are purchased by customers and placed in the trolley. It takes a long time and can be rather annoying to go to the billing counter after the purchase is finished to make the payment. This prototype's primary goal was to minimize human labour, get rid of the line, and shorten the billing process so that customers might have an easier time. In addition to taking a lot of time, the counter-billing process requires additional staff. We have put up a method to address this issue, which makes use of a smart shopping cart to get around these obstacles.
