Retail is the kind of market which is the last stop for the supply chain from where customers can access the good and services. Retail market generally purchases the goods from the manufacturer or the middlemen refer to as the Wholesalers. Wholesalers collect the products from the manufacturers worldwide and supply the goods and service to the retailers. So, retailers are the intermediate layer in the supply chain who connects the products from the manufacturer with the targeted customers. Retail market may be offline or online. However, for decades, the online retail market like Flipkart, Amazon etc are grooming faster compared to the offline retail market. The primary reason is the feasibility to the customer as they can view the product from the website by sitting at home and can choose for their purchase. Even they can order for their desired products without going to the physical market. It means such market required the intelligence to attract the customers so that they will buy the product from their market. Generally, customers use to buy their products from such a market where they can find good products, attractive offers and useful recommendations. On the other hand, retailers should keep their inventory management smarter by employing suitable technology so that the supply will be uniform. As this is the era of digital business, retail marketing uses the technology like Data Analytics with the Internet of Things to maintain the inventory, sophistical approach towards checkout system by emphasizing the visibility of the inventory system.

Nowadays purchasing and shopping at big malls is becoming a daily activity in metro cities. There will be huge rush at malls on holidays and weekends. The rush is even more when there are special offers and discount. People purchase different items and put them in trolley. After total purchase one needs to go to billing counter for payments. At the billing counter the cashier prepare the bill using bar code reader which is a time consuming process and results in long queues at billing counters. Our aim is to develop a system that can be used in shopping malls to solve the above mentioned challenge. The system will be placed in all the trolleys. It consists RFID reader, Zigbee, display. All the products in the mall will be equipped with RFID tags. When a person places any product in the trolley, the respective tag of the product is detected and the price of that product is stored in the memory. Item name and its cost will be displayed on LCD. As a person places more products, the cost of the products is added to the total bill. Thus the billing is done in the trolley itself. At the billing Counter the total bill data will be transferred to PC by wireless RF modules.

Shopping and automatic billing using rfid technologyIAEME Publication
Nowadays, large grocery stores are used by millions of people for the acquisition of products.
Barcode scanners are a time consuming process engaging the customers to stick to the billing section
for a long time. Hence there is a need for an innovative product with the societal acceptance that aids
the convenience, comfort and efficiency in everyday life.
In this paper, an architecture is presented which blends Radio frequency identification
(RFID) and wireless technology to provide ‘on spot’ billing in super markets. It uses the RFID based
system application in the shopping trolley and the RFID card which is used as a security access for
the product. The Liquid crystal display (LCD) that is fixed to the trolley displays the product name,
cost and the total cost of all purchased products. The bill is transmitted to the server end through the
zigbee technology. The software simulation is done using Proteus software and hardware is
implemented using 18F46K22 microcontroller. This promotes quick shopping and immediate pay
without any queuing process. It reduces labour efforts and increases efficiency by minimizing errors
to reduce and eliminate time taken in billing counter in super markets by designing an Intelligent Shopping Basket which uses Barcode scanners to allow users to self-checkout and increase productivity time.

I. INTRODUCTION
Shopping is something on which a human spends most of
his time every day. According to the researches done by
researchers it is seen that people spend 23% of their lives
on buying different products, that means we spend more
than 150 hours per month and 2000 hours per year on
shopping. In any condition, better or worse people will
always need their necessities to live a comfortable life.
They need food, groceries, clothes and other stuff for living.
Since shopping is an important part of necessities of human,
so it is necessary to optimize a better and comfortable way
to do shopping. Today shopping can be simplified into two
categories: 1) shopping in-person 2) shopping absentia.
Shopping in absentia includes online shopping, tele-
shopping etc where the shopper is not physically present in
the shopping area. Shopping in-person involves shopping in
shopping area where the person has to select the products
according to the need. In shopping absentia, the person
doesn’t have to face a lot of issues as compared to that in
shopping in-person. When a person enters a grocery store
then he has to face lots of problems. He has to carry a cart
for keeping the material in it. So he has to roam all around
the store to collect the stuff which requires a lot of time.
Then after the collection of the material he has to stand in
queue for the billing. He has to communicate with the
shopkeeper which sometimes leads to fights. So a system is
the need of the alarm to improve the way to do shopping.
We need to organize a proper system in which people can
buy their necessities in a proper comfort manner. A system
in which their time during shopping is saved and they don’t
have to wait in queues. They should not feel shopping
necessity as a headache. The proposed smart card system
assist shopping in-person which will reduce the time spent
in shopping and helps in store management too. The
proposed system is based on very few technologies: 1)
RFID for product identification 2) Zigbee for wireless
communication with the shop server 3) Integrated system
with display 4)Arduino . All these are being discussed in
details in further sections. In this paper, we discuss design,
working and conclusion of the smart card. In design, we
discuss all the technologies used in building the card and in
working section, we discuss the proper working of the
smart card from how it reduces the shopping time till its
contribution in store management. In conclusion, we
discuss about the advances that can be done in the card to
make it more commercial and helpful. The development
opportunities are also focused so that it makes pleasurable
shopping experience for the shopper and also makes the
management of store easier.
II. SURVEY
While doing the survey we found that mostly people prefer
leaving malls instead of waiting in line for checkout.
People find it difficult to search for the required product
too. After getting the product they have to stand in big
queues for billing to be done .In recent years it has been
seen that technologies has been used for overcoming these

2. public issues. Barcodes are found to be used today in every
product. Barcodes are the universal technology used for
retail products, stores that own barcode reader can process
barcode and imprint it on the product. The most important
fault with barcode scanning is that the product has to be at
line of sight of the reader to get the barcode imprinted on
the product scanned. The University of Arkansas
Information Technology Research Institute, in 2009 came
up with the business value of RFID item- level tagging for
day to day operations at major luxury retailers. They
demonstrated that overall inventory accuracy improved by
more than 27 percent, under stocks decreased by 21
percent, and overstocks decreased by 6 percent. The study
also compared how long it took to count items using RFID
vs. a barcode reader. With RFID, scanning 10,000 items
took two hours; scanning with a barcode reader took 53
hours. This translated into an average of 4,767 counted
items per hour using RFID, and 209 items per hour using a
barcode system—a 96 percent reduction in cycle-counting
time. Public awareness of RFID was heightened in recent
years when the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and
retail giant Wal-Mart required their suppliers to use RFID
technology. Bill McBeath in April 2013 said, to survive in
2013 and beyond, retailers need to make it easy for
consumers to buy anywhere, receive anywhere, and return
anywhere. The key to this cross-channel order promising is
the ability, in real-time, to locate and allocate available
inventory from any location, whether in the store, in DCs,
in transit, or on order from the manufacturer. This requires
having a very accurate, real-time, item-level picture of
inventory at all these sources. RFID has proven to improve
perpetual inventory accuracy in stores dramatically, by
20%-30%. JC Penney improved perpetual inventory
accuracy from 75% to 99% in categories using RFID.
Khushi arora and parnika gupta, under the guidance of Mrs.
Shefali chopra in their paper RFID and ARDUINO based
shopping card described the implementation of a system to
allow a simple and easy way of shopping. When arriving at
the supermarket counter, the consumer issues a shopping card
by getting it charged with some amount of money. The card is
accessible to the RFID and ARDUINO designed system. The
system consists of all the data of the items in the supermarket.
The consumer only has to interact with the monitor designed
with the transparent technologies. In the paper, we display the
efficient and cost effective way of shopping for the consumer
as well as the seller.
III. PROPOSED SYSTEM
We discuss the “SHOPPING CARD” designed to assist a
person in everyday shopping in terms of reduced time spent
while purchasing a product. Moreover this product helps the
owner of the shopping area by reducing the cost involved in
workers as the card requires less of man labor as compared to
other way of shopping. The main objective of this project is to
provide a technology oriented, low cost, scalable and rugged
system for shopping in-person. The system consists of 4 key
components 1) RFID technology 2) Arduino, 3) Integrated
system with display and 4) Zigbee for wireless communication
with shop server. Traditionally, RFID was used to track
inventory along supply chains, retailers placed RFID tags onto
pallets. The usage of barcode for product identification
presents several limitations: only the product’s class is
identified; information is static; allows one single reading at a
time; requires line-of sight; has low range and security. RFID
technology is more resistant, safer, identifies products in a
unique way, can provide other types of information, can make
several simultaneous readings, doesn’t need line-of-sight and
it has a high range Now this automatic system hardware and
software. Arduino acts as a brain of the system. Despite of
other microcontrollers, arduino is not limited to windows only
infact it runs on windows, macintosh OSX and linux operating
systems. The zigbee module used helps in server and car
communication. And even helps in creating a record of the
product. The display helps in knowing the operation to be
taken place and even acts as a medium of communication for
the customer as proved later. overcomed the problem of line of
sight of the reader. RFID gave 99.5% accurate result.
Moreover the system is able to lower the labor cost giving
significantly increase in inventory visibility. With RFID
customers can enjoy speedier checkouts and greater
convenience. Arduino used is an open source prototyping
platform based on easy to use
IV. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
The modules components used in the architecture of the
system are :
1) RFID technology
2) Arduino
3) Zigbee module
4) Lcd display
5) Keypad

3. 1) RFID stands for radio frequency identification.
It is the wireless use of electromagnetic fields
to transfer data, for the purpose of
automatically identifying and tagging tags
attached to the objects. The tags contain
electronically stored information. And some
tags are powered by electromagnetic induction
for magnetic fields produced near the reader.
Unlike the barcodes, tag does not necessarily
need to be within the line of sight of the reader
and may be embedded in the tracked object.
RFID is one method of automatic
identification and data capture. RFID provides
a way for organization to identify and manage
tools and equipments without manual data
entry. RFID is being adopted for item level
tagging in retail stores. This provides
electronic article surveillance and self
checkout process for consumer
2. ARDUINO
The UNO is a microcontroller board based on
ATmega 328P. It has 14 digital input/output
pins, 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHZ quartz crystal, a
USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header
and a reset button. It contains everything needed
to control a microcontroller, simply connect it to
a USB cable or power it with a AC to DC
adapter or battery to get started. UNO can be
programmed with Arduino software. The UNO
has number of facilities for communicating with
a computer, Uno board and other
microcontrollers. So, these functions of
ARDUINO UNO acts resourceful for the
shopping card.
3. ZIGBEE MODULE
The technology defined by the zigbee
specification is intended to be simpler and less
expensive than the personal area networks such
as Bluetooth or wifi. Applications include
wireless light switches, electrical meters for in-
hopme displays, traffic management systems and
other consumer and industrial equipment that
requires short range low-rate wireless data
transfer. Its low power consumption limits
transmission distances from 10-100 meters line
of sight depending upon power output and
environmental characteristics. Zigbee device can
transmit data over a long distance by passing it
through a mesh network of intermediate devices
to reach more distant ones. Zigbee is typically
used in low data rate applications that require
long battery life and secure networking.
4. LCD DISPLAY
A liquid crystal display is a flat panel display or
other electronic visual display that uses light
modulating properties of liquid crystals. Liquid
crystals do not emit light directly. LCDs are
available to display arbitrary images or fixed
images with low information content, which can
be displayed or hidden such as present words,
digits and 7 segment displays such as in a digital
clock. LCDs are used in wide applications of
computer monitors, televisions, instrument
panels, aircraft cockpit display and signage. The
LCD screen is more effective and can be
disposed of safely than CRT.
5. KEYPAD
A keypad is a set of buttons arranged in a block
or pad which usually bear digits and symbols and
a complete set of alphabetical letters. If it mostly
contain numbers then it can also be called
numeric keypad. Keypads are found on many
Khushi Arora et al, American Journal of Electronics & Communication, Vol. III (3), 58-61

4. alphanumeric keyboards and on other devices
like calculators, push button telephone,
combination locks and digital door lock which
require mainly numeric input.
V. WORKING
1.When the customer enter the mall , the customer
need to get the shopping card recharged with required
amount of money.
2.The space with the items have a number of RFID
readers, the customer need to show the item tag on
RFID for reading.
3.The customer will be asked for the number of such
item required then using keypad he need to enter the
needful information.
4.The reader will tell the total amount of the items
and the customer with the help of card and keypad
enter the amount so that the payment from the card
get deducted .
5.This whole data of customer get stored in the main
counter of mall to avoid mishappenings through
zigbee module used in the complete circuit
V.BENEFITS OF SHOPPING CARD
1.Reduces time by not letting the customer wait in
queue for payments.
2.Reduces the requirement for workers in a shopping
centre which is good for owners as they do not have
to invest more in salaries.
3.Easy to check stock of the items since the
purchased data get gathered in the web.
4.Easily accessed by anyone of any age.
5.Reduces the chances of cheating.
6.The card is renewable as it can be charged as much
as required by the customer.
VI. CONCLUSION
Waiting in a queue for billing of the item intakes a lot of time.
Not only this, the mall need to invest more in salaries of the
workers working in the mall for making the bill and keeping
the stock. With this proposed card all such problems get
solved with low investment and time as it does not involve
more of electronics which is costly. We are further working on
this system by modifying the shopping card and trying in
making it more resourceful with more additional features like
use of credit cards. We are trying to add credit card feature
with the RFID reader so that the payment option increases. We
are working on this to make it more commercial.
