Smart Shopping Trolley

Project Title

Smart Shopping Trolley

Project Area of Specialization Internet of ThingsProject Summary

Shopping mall is a place where people can buy products. Quite often, When People shopping in the mall they face many Problems. If they buy something they don’t know what the price of products. Customer also need to queue for a long time to wait in the line at the cashier to pay. At the Billing counter product can be out of budget. This is serious problem, Peoples are facing in the market.

The smart trolley can cover many needs, including valuing the inventory, cover time complexity. Customer can manage time with it. It also reduce the cost of employees for owner of the Market. It also show the direction or map. Sometime new customers don’t know where product in the market. So map or direction covers all these type of requirements.

Project Objectives

To enhance customer experience by introducing advanced shopping system.

• To minimize the time of customers.

• To maintain all record in a database or inventory.

• Facilitate customer by mobile App.

• Introduced mobile app which assist customer which show all the prices of Product to customers.

Project Implementation Method

•Preparation and Planning - Establish how to use tools, methods and processes to generate a technological idea which can be assess for commercial purposes within a time frame.
•Requirement Analysis - To analyse the project requirements which includes generation and selection of product ideas, definition and value proposition of product, market research and assessment includes, function of product concepts and strategy of commercial viability.
•Product Design and Architecture - Based on the project requirements, technologically-oriented design will be adopted in designing the system architecture of the product including modules of the system.
•Implementation of Design - To ensure the product is implemented with the sense of promoting business opportunity by using the TEC algorithm.
•Results - To develop a commercialisation strategy in making this project a potential business by producing a business plan.

Benefits of the Project

Smart shopping trolley is technically upgraded system for shopping process. This benefit both company and customer to improve their experience of shopping in handling store items. It is fully functioned system with automated software system which helps customers throughout their shopping process. The smart shopping trolley system is a type of trolley equipped with scanners to track the total items purchased. It uses barcode reader to determine the preferences of a customer. Smart shopping trolley system integrates material processing, information processing and customer processing technologies together to increase ease of shopping and provide quality shopping experience.
