Description
Summary:The portable store assistant (PSA) is a device to assist shopper with their shopping activities. It will also help to increase the efficiency in management of the store through the implement of service provided to customer. This device consists of a complete system that incorporates a barcode scanner, a display screen, database and wireless link to electronic point of sales. It provides self-scanning, ninning trolley totals, price checks and easy self-checkout. It will be able to scan the items that placed in the trolley, allowing the customers to pay without wasting time to queue at the checkout counters. This device will be attached to the shopping trolley and would be using a barcode scanner to scan the items and at the same time will display the price of the items at the screen. Wireless technology will be used to send the information from the device to the checkout counters. The customer no longer has to empty the trolley and place the individual products on the conveyor belt. The checkout prints the receipt as usual and the customer pays the amount shown. This will saves the checkout counter and the customer significant time and increase the efficiency of the shopping activities. A simulation of the system was successfully developed for this project.
