Improved Error Accuracy and Range of RFID Based Product Identification for Smart Shopping

Computer Engineering

Internet of Things (IoT), will create a huge network of billions or trillions of “Things” communicating with one another. Ever since the debut of wireless technology, electronic commerce has developed to such an extent to provide convenience, comfort and efficiency in day-to-day life. In this paper, we discuss a ground breaking concept of RFID based Smart Shopping cart in the field of retail merchandise. Our whole shopping is often marred by the long checkout queue. A system to resolve this problem by replacing existing Barcode technology by smart tags, known as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag is discussed in this paper. The key idea here is to provide assistance in everyday shopping in terms of reduction in time spent, eliminating the daily hassle of locating the right product and standing in long queue. The primary goal is to provide a technology oriented, time saving, hassle free, commercially oriented system for an enhanced shopping experience.
