A Review on Automated Billing for Smart Shopping System Using IOT

Abstract

A shopping mall is a form where wide variety of product items is available. This product can be clothes, beverages, books or food any domestic product. The main intention of supermarkets is to provide availability of all the items and save the time of the purchaser but sometimes purchaser gets discontented while waiting in the queue at cash counter and sometimes they get frustrated while balancing the total price of all the products with the budget in the pocket before billing. To swamp these problems, Shopping malls use this technique as a strategy to increase the number of purchasers. In big cities, we can observe an enormous flash at shopping malls on weekends. This becomes even more when there is diversity of offers and discount. Now a day's people buy a variety of items and put them in the trolley. After total buying one should approach counter for billing purpose. By using reader the paymaster prepares the bill which is a tedious process. This results in long queues at the cash counters. This project presents an idea to develop a system in shopping malls to conquer the above problem. When purchaser puts any item in the trolley its details will be recognized automatically, the item name and rate will be displayed on the LCD Screen, thereby the rate gets joined to the final bill. If a purchaser wishes to extract the items from the smart trolley, purchaser can take away the product and the price of that particular item gets subtracted from total amount and the same information passes to the central billing unit via GSM module.

Smart Trolley with Automatic Billing System using Arudino

“…Emerging trend of online shopping, which cuts down the hassle, at the same time that shopping at stores introduction of environment friendly smart carts and smart baskets not only help the stores to eliminate the surge but also serve to reduce the usage of paper, the number of employees making it more economical and unnecessarily wasted in printing copies of bills .Thus the use of RFID based smart trolleys is of major significance or importance interest and welfare to the society. The ESP attached to the system makes it far more compatible by giving the whole information of the shopping available on the android cell phones [2][3][4][5][6]21].…”

“…A tag are attached to product as and when products are dropped and come in contact with reader tag transmits information. The total data of item is properly communicated to computer and finally stores the data [1][2]. The RFID reader retrieve the information from tag which is attached to item, The reader takes data in digital form through radio waves.…”

“…Metropolitan cities are crowded with people in shopping malls to buy their daily needs. As the market is growing bigger day by day with variety of products and consumer taste has changed [1][2][3] .Shopping malls are centre of attraction because of discounts in products, cashless transaction, variety of products like household, decorative, kitchen ,sports, education, stationeries which are all available under one roof [3][4][5][6]. So in this paper we are proposing a new technology especially in billing which saves the time of customer by effective and efficient billing using smart trolley [7][8][9].…”

“…In an effort to increase the effectiveness and precision of barcode detection, later methods have investigated a variety of geometry-based strategies. While Namane et al [4] evaluated the fit of line segments to barcode descriptions based on length and orientation, Creusot et al [3] used intensity-based cropping of barcode sections using candidate line segments. Maximally stable extremal regions (MSERs) were used by Li et al [10] to identify barcode directions and filter out background noise.…”
