Abstract

The invention relates to novel self-help shopping checkout system and method for supermarkets, relates to automatic checkout system and method and solves the problems of the existing self-help shopping systems. The novel self-help shopping checkout system transmits commodity information through a wireless network system. A body of each shopping cart is fully closed. A barcode scanning unit inputs barcode information of a scanned commodity into a central control unit. Information is transmitted between customers and the novel self-help shopping checkout system through a central processing unit and an embedded microcomputer system provided with a touch screen. Signals are received and transmitted between the novel self-help shopping checkout system and the intelligent shopping carts through the wireless network system. The received information is transmitted to a rapid channel server. The rapid channel server stores barcode information and checkout information of the commodities. The novel self-help shopping checkout system requires no queuing, makes the checkouts in supermarkets more efficient, and improves service quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic settlement system and a settlement method. Background technique [0002] The current shopping process in Chinese supermarkets is mostly that customers choose their own items and put them into the shopping cart, and finally push them to the checkout counter, where the cashier scans each item one by one, and the customer checks out and makes a list. In the checkout process, it is often necessary to line up in a long queue at the checkout channel, which not only wastes customer time, but also reduces the efficiency and service quality of the supermarket. In the long run, it will affect the economic benefits of supermarkets. [0003] The current existing Chinese patent, application number 200720097626.4, provides a shopping cart using barcode scanning technology with automatic checkout function, but the shopping cart is open, and the patent content does not contain measures to monitor customers' conscious shopping. ...
