Project Summary

Pakistan has a more than 1 million shopkeepers. As a developing country, we can face different issues like Corona Virus. Due to this, we might not be able to open store for many days that can cause serious disaster to products and also for Pakistan. Every year, hundreds of shops open in different fields. Unfortunately, we are unable to think about Store Automation.

In this project, it is decided to develop a Store Automation. A Store Automation is a system which will help the customer to add its list of items and then helps the customer to find its added items on the other hand it also helps the customer and the seller in billing section. In this project, it is decided to develop a smart store assistant.

A Store Automation is a system which will help the customer to add its list of items and then helps the customer to find its added items on the other hand it also helps the customer and the seller in billing section.

The customer has to press record button. Record its items in the system which will automatically categories its items, add them in the list according to the designated section, the customer has to call section name and the system will show which product have to be picked from this section.

In billing section, the customer does not have to wait in queue for billing of their products they just need to have pass their trolley from a designed pathway it will automatically generate the bill of the products which will be present in the trolley.

In the designing and developing of smart assistant it needs to recognize the grocery items and section names using speech recognition in Flutter using packages.

In billing section, it needs to have interfacing of RFID and sensor to sends its unique ID to identify the product. So, every tag has its unique ID and details of the tag is fetched from the database which will help in calculating bills

Project Objectives

1. We can provide easiness for the customer to find its desired products by just adding and calling section name
2. also move on towards man fewer stores by combining these two systems through networking
3. few people needed once or twice a day for checking the or for filling the product racks so that every product should be placed enough for fulfilling customer’s need.

       4. The customer can scan the QR code after, shopping the bills                  can be detected through the online billing system

Project Implementation Method

The project is to design and implement a low cost smart store assistant. For implementation of this project we will require Software and hardware modules. Software will include Android app and an Admin App base on Flutter. Hardware modules will require Arduino LPNO, MFRC522, Jumper Wires, Rasbery Pi, IR Sensors,RFID.

Raspberry Pi based on the multicore microprocessor as processing unit, HDMI port, analog audiovideo socket, USB 2.0 ports, Ethernet, CSI (Serial Interface) serial interface, serial interface (DSI), etc. such as robotics, image processing, in a single board computer and in large project ideas. In this project of an intelligent smart store, we use raspberry pi.

IR Sensor will used in billing section to scna products containing RFID.

Benefits of the Project

1. It helps them to remind their desired products according to the section Lack of Communication Skills
2. Once they added their grocery list in the system then they just have to call the section name the system will tell them which product they have to pick from this section.
3. A supermarket is a self-service shop offering a wide range of products
4. So, in our project, the smart grocery assistant will help the cashier for scanning items.
5. In this project, maximum benefits have achieved from the RFID tags ISO/IEC 14443 A/MIFARE cards
6. The controller is programmable and user-friendly.
7. It will save customer’s time
8. Fast and accurate billing

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

We provide smart store Assistant that helps to grow the business. It is an Employee less system. Everything works Automatically. Customer enter in a store. They will use Android App based on flutter to find thier desiredd products through Speech Recognition and also it contains some other functions to help them remind their products.All the products information is storre in Firebase database. When the customer,choose their products,Then move to the billing section, where he place all the products to the platform which is consist of sensors, that will scan all the RFID contains products.

By using Rasbery Pi,Arduino LPNO,MFRC522 and jumper wires, we make a system that will show QR code.So, that the customer scan the QR code and all the transaction will be done and reciept will be given.
