Wi-FI Cloud server based User Operated Billing System in Mall

摘要

In today's world due to the increasing population, the shopping malls are fully crowded and billing is a time-consuming process. The time spend for every customer for billing, because of existing billing technology at the billing counters is more. Human resource required for billing and rechecking work is more. To reduce the time in queue for customer and mall management costs, the idea called “User Operated Billing System in Mall” is originated. The proposed system consists of application software connected with the supermarket web online cloud server. The barcode on every product helps in retrieval of information associated with a particular product by scanning and displaying the same on the smartphone screen. Facility to calculate the total bill amount is done by the server. Customers are provided with the option to pay the bill at the billing counter by cash or directly pay using online payment methods. RFID tagging with each product is providing security. When the customer makes the payment for a particular product, the RFID tag of that product is disabled. But if a customer is checking out without paying for the product, then that product is detected by the RFID reader at the exit.
