0 likes73 views
This document describes a proposed smart shopping cart system that uses RFID technology. The system aims to streamline the shopping and checkout process. RFID tags would be attached to all products in the store. As shoppers add items to their cart, an RFID reader in the cart would automatically detect and record the products. When the cart reaches the checkout area, the items and their details would be transmitted to the cash register via LIFI and the bill would be automatically generated for the customer. The document discusses the system components, including the microcontroller, RFID reader, LCD display, LIFI transmitter and receiver, and power supply. It also provides background on RFID technology and reviews several other existing smart shopping and RFID applications

ABSTRACT: In the real world we face many problems in
standing in queue because we have to wait for long time.
When we are in shopping mall it’s easy for us to take the
shopping cart and shop whatever we want but when we
have to take the products outside then we have to wait in
queue for billing the products for long time. Hence it takes
more time for billing the products we use the technology of
RFID for transmission and photodiode for reception. Weuse
RFID for collecting the detailsof the product in the shopping
cart. When the products are being collected in the shopping
cart then we use RFID for transmission for billing the
products. When the shopping cart is been taken near to the
billing part then the products in shopping cart will be taken
automatically and bill will be given to consumer.
I.INTRODUCTION:
Today every supermarket and shoppingmallmakes
use of the shopping baskets and shopping carts to collectthe
items from the racks. The customers have to put every
product which they want to purchase in to the cart and they
have to wait in the long queue for the billing system. It is a
complex process. To overcome that several technological
solutions have been developed. But the effectiveness of the
developed system should be improvised. So that, we are
using visible light communication instead of wireless
standards such as zigbee, Bluetooth etc., and also we are
using RFID reader, LCD display and LIFI transmitter in the
smart trolley. At the billing section, the LIFI receiver is used
which is connected to the man computer.
It the popularity of smart phones, mobile marketing is
becoming increasingly popular. As an effective marketing
technique, mobile marketing provides context aware
information to customers so as to generate values for both
customers and sellers. In this paper, we present a Smart
Shopping System that sendsreal-timecustomizedmarketing
messages, e-coupons or mobile advertisements of products
purchased by similar customers to customers when they
have just come into a shop. There are two issues in the
development of the Smart Shopping System,. Withrespectto
a shop, the concept of social vectors can be extended to the
activity of finding similar customers for the purpose of
making product recommendations and, most importantly,
delivering real time customized marketingmessages assoon
as the customers come into the shop. In this paper, we will
first discuss the basic properties of social vectors and then
introduce a rule-based approach and a comparison-based
approach based on social vectors to find similar customers.
The product recommendations and the customized
marketing messages for customers are generated based on
the products purchased by most similar customers of the
shop. In recent years, radio frequency identification (RFID)
technology has also been widely employed by various
industries.
II.LITERATURE REVIEW:
Implementation of Radio Frequency Identification
technology in librariesin a developing country like Indiahas
brought remarkable improvements in the services such as
shelf charging-discharging, automatedhandlingofmaterials,
security, high-speed inventory and moved beyond security
to become tracking systemsthat combinesecuritywithmore
efficient tracking of materials throughout the library,
reduced the data entry errors, enhanced customer service,
and records updates. This article is an attempt to assess the
potential of these aspects after the implementation of RFID
technology and factors responsible for the slow influx of the
technology, as revealed in the reported literature covering
the concerned libraries of India. It is hoped that the present
study will help Librarians and Library professionals in
improving the return on investment and proving the long-
term security of the library.[1]
Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has been
widely used in the field of construction during the last two
decades. Basically, RFID facilitates the control on a wide

Liquid crystals do not emit light directly, instead using a backlight or reflector to produce images in color or monochrome. LCDs are available to display arbitrary images (as in a general- purpose computer display) or fixed images with low information content, which can be displayed or hidden,such as preset words, digits, and 7-segment displays, as in a digital clock. They use the same basic technology,exceptthat arbitrary images are made up of a large number of small pixels, while other displays have larger elements IV.MODULES DESCRIPTION: An RFID system is mainly composed of a transceiver or reader connected to an antenna and a set of transpondersor tags, where information is stored. The transceiver communicates with a computer by means of an application, which manages the data stored in the tags. Antennas establish the communication between the transceiver and transponders. Depending on the distance between the system and the objects to which the tags are adhered, there exist several kindsof antennas and tags. The table 4.1 shows the survival of frequency bands .
