[0002] Shopping in supermarkets has changed the transaction method between salespersons and shoppers in general stores. The shoppers directly choose the products on the shelves, providing shoppers with an environment in direct contact with the products and creating a comfortable shopping mode. Therefore, shoppers also Take shopping in the supermarket as a way of leisure, and fully enjoy the shopping process after busy work and study. However, since the current commodity management in the supermarket is mainly concentrated at the supermarket exit, the cashier scans each commodity one by one for checkout. The checkout efficiency is low. During the peak shopping period, consumers have to wait in long queues at the cash register. The waiting process wastes a lot of time for customers, and customers' scruples about queuing in some supermarkets will also reduce the sales of supermarkets.

At the same time, supermarkets need to employ a large number of cashiers, which also increases the operating costs of supermarkets.
