Hunter's comment

Panasonic is revolutionizing the world of retail business with this robotic retail checkout system called Regi-Robo. It is an automated retail checkout and payment system wherein there is no need for a cashier.

The system uses a special basket and RFID tags. All the goods in the store have corresponding RFID and the basket is where you will place your goods. Once you are done picking your goods, place the basket in the robotic check-out counter. The bottom of the basket opens to drop the goods in a bag and the RFIDs of the goods are scanned. Prices and total are then displayed for payment. Once payment is done, the goods are released in a plastic bag. And you're done! There is no need to wait in line for all your goods to be scanned, for the cashier to check on them one by one, and for your payment to be computed much longer.

Watch how the concept works here:
