Checkout aisles in grocery stores are inefficient. There are better ways to process transactions that don’t involve waiting in long lines for a cashier.
In stores, every item is marked with a barcode that uniquely identifies it. These barcodes can be processed using computer vision techniques.
Our team will create an embedded system for shopping carts that will process orders in a passive manner, requiring no intervention from the shopper. As items are placed in the cart, a camera will “scan” the item and send data to the cloud to process the order.
