Abstract

The aim of this project is to research and develop a smart trolley equipped with radio frequency identification (RFID) technology and the use of the latest advances in the field of 'Internet of Things' (IoT), called SmartCart. RFID is the next-generation wireless technology for item identification. The challenge of the project is to restrict the beam of RFID only within the shopping cart, to identify product items automatically within the shopping trolley, and to integrate the system with the shop inventory system efficiently. With this RFID SmartCart, shoppers are able to keep a record of the/npurchase at all times without using the scanner on each product with a system like barcode readers. This has a significant impact on saving time and money for shopper and customer. Moreover, the 'RFID SmartCart' can also be used by shopkeepers for shelving product items and save their valuable time.
