Intelligent Shopping Cart System Included With Sanitization

In our day to day life we have been witnessing supermarkets with long queues during the shopping period. These long queues result in wastage of time for both customers and mall management. Hence, the aim of this paper is to build and implement an Intelligent shopping cart system with an inclusion of sanitization technique with sole objective of minimizing the shopping time and also maximizing the better shopping experience in the supermarkets. This paper presents Intelligent shopping cart system with sanitization where each item that the customer picks has an RFID tag has an assigned price. When the item is dropped into the cart the RFID reader which is embedded in the cart system reads the RFID tag and the amount will be displayed on the LCD screen provided and this repeats for every addition of the item and the amount sums up at each cycle and total updated bill also get displayed on the screen. There is a facility to remove the item from the cart with the help of a remove button system embedded in the cart. And in this paper we are also providing sanitization system by keeping todays pandemic situation in mind. When the item is dropped the sensor senses and the sanitization will be done with the help of the motor attached to the system. At the end of the shopping if the customer wishes to have a cashless payment, then it can be done using amount RFID card which can be recharged whenever we want to same as metro card payment system.
