How would it prevent shoplifting though?

Nitzer Ebb · 03-29-2017, 02:01 PM

Don't let blacks or arabs to checkouts. They will have full basket and ring it up as ?1

HelmutKohl · 03-29-2017, 02:04 PM

And 1 million more plastic bags, what happened to paper bags ? Damn it!

Paul&John · 03-29-2017, 02:08 PM

Haha love it how it puts the whole thing into the bag

There is a weight sensor in the basket that correlates the barcode with the products stored weight.

When they put the cart on the checkout there is 2nd weight sensor so they know new items were added.

The bag is sitting on a 3rd weight sensor, so when items go from the cart to the bag they know new items were added.

How would it handle PRODUCE?

If I'd be a Japanese inventor, I'd use RFID instead of bar code readers and the process would be 10'x times faster, easier for clients and more reliable/secure, because with RFID you can't read a code from pepsi and take a canned caviar instead.

We have the same shit here, unfortunately. Almost all supermarkets provide plastic bags only. A paper bag is a rare thing... The only good thing is that some grocery chains use bio-utilizing plastic which destructs itself after some time.

SpicyM · 03-29-2017, 02:51 PM

Yeah, super new technology.. self scanning at checkout has been here for about 6 years

And scanning while putting items into the shopping basket is currently available in Tesco , Globus (Czech Republic) and probably others too..

Yes, millions of jobs lost, sky is falling..

Yeah 95% of jobs at a store are in the back & on the floor, not at the register

Have you guys missed out on the news by Amazon, which takes this much further (in the US)?

They've already had automatic checkout machines for 10 years+ where I live, I imagine it would work the same way.

Some are sold by weight so that's no issue, others I think they give a general weight range IE I buy a bunch of greens it's anywhere from 100 grams to 300 grams depending on how wet it is or small/large bunch. Once in awhile it fucks up and someone comes over and overrides it, but one employee can manage 10 or so checkout machines.

Jigster715 · 03-30-2017, 12:43 AM

Looks great. Cameras all over the place help stop loss. Most thieves prove to be foreigners anyway.

lys11 · 03-30-2017, 01:22 AM

Real progress. But I am more than confident that such progress is only available to a few countries even after many years.

mce · 04-02-2017, 03:50 PM

This is probably most appropriate for convenience stores.

Quick in and out transaction (no pun intended).

CDSmith · 04-03-2017, 06:26 AM

There's an even better system where I live. For the past 8 months now all I do is go online to a huge grocery database, shop for everything I need including produce, meats, everything, all while sipping my coffee and taking my sweet time while sitting on my ass. Then I indicate at checkout as to when I want it, and my personal shopper takes over at the other end, does all my actual shopping.

Groceries arrive at my door within the 2 hour time frame I specified, the final total amount plus a mere $7.95 delivery fee is billed to my CC, done and done.

In fact I have a delivery arriving this morning. Been saying it all winter... thank God for SaveOn Foods.

Except that it doesn't really work. We have the self-checkout systems here in a few grocery stores and even at places like IKEA, and they suck.

The grocery store versions are too slow, and too hard to use. You often have to scan an item 3 or 4 times before it will register. The interface to purchase is terrible. The "touch" technology is pre-Apple iphone, so you have to press hard on the touch buttons to work. Then after all that you have to use another machine and interface (ATM) to pay for the food. Then after all that, there's still someone checking your bag to make sure you didn't rip them off.

At IKEA its even worse. You have to take all the items out of your cart, scan each one with a clumsy hand-held bar-code reader which is slow. The touch screen is better but still slow. Ikea pays people to stand and help shoppers (and check their bags), so they save no speed, and no money.

Apple on the other hand, really has this figured out. Just walk in to any Apple store and hold the item to your phone. Confirm the purchase and out you go. Fucking fast and fucking convenient.
