Introduction and Project Summary

The self-service technology innovation in food markets has led to the shopping activity being served by the shopper without relying on any service provider. Currently, self-checkout systems at top retail stores allow us to scan barcodes or look up codes for produce, and calibrate a cost. We want to create a touchless kiosk checkout system, a retail point of sale system that uses computer vision technology to identify consumer packaged goods, and non-packaged produce. Our system will contain a weighing scale kiosk with many inbuilt cameras to segment and classify produce easily, and have a wireless interface to make a more modular application.
