Abstract

The monitoring device uses at least one camera (4) positioned at a supermarket exit aisle, coupled to a release device which is triggered by detection of a supermarket trolley (3) within the exit aisle, for providing an image of the bottom of the supermarket trolley, supplied to a monitor. The trolley is detected via a sensor (7) positioned at a defined spacing from the camera.
