| TITLE | Smart Shopping Trolley Follow the Customer |
|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | In modern supermarkets and shopping malls, customers often face difficulty in carrying heavy shopping baskets or pushing traditional trolleys for a long time. This can make the shopping process uncomfortable, especially for elderly people and customers carrying many items. To solve this problem, the Smart Shopping Trolley Follow The Customer system is proposed. The main objective of this project is to develop a smart trolley that can automatically follow the customer while maintaining a safe distance. The system uses sensors, a microcontroller, and motor driver circuits to detect the movement of the customer and control the movement of the trolley. Sensors continuously monitor the position of the customer and send signals to the microcontroller. Based on this information, the trolley moves forward, stops, or changes direction accordingly. The proposed system reduces the physical effort required to push a trolley and improves the convenience of shopping. It also helps customers move freely in the store without worrying about handling heavy carts. In addition, the trolley is designed with obstacle detection capability to avoid collisions and ensure safe operation inside crowded shopping areas. This project demonstrates how automation and embedded systems can be used to improve the shopping experience in retail environments. The Smart Shopping Trolley system provides a practical solution for modern supermarkets and represents a step toward smart retail technology in the future. |
