Definitions
- the invention relates to a self-service checkout device for collecting data on merchandise.
- Barcode markings are usually already attached to the packaging or the product itself by the manufacturer.
- barcode readers are used, which are available in different designs for the different areas of application. The most common readers include a laser and various mirrors to scan the bar code pattern. There are fixed and portable barcode readers.
- RFID “radio frequency identification” systems are also increasingly used as identification marks and are used to identify products.
- An RFID system essentially consists of two components: the mobile data carriers, which are also called code transmitters, transponders, RFID tags, ID transmitters or ID cards, and which a user carries or which can be identified on one Object like a commercial product and the reader, which is also referred to as a base station or transceiver and which reads the data from the transponders or writes new data into them.
- the reader can also supply energy for the transponder.
- an antenna is required on both sides, which in simple cases is designed as an air coil.
- the transponders store information ranging from a simple identification number to complex user or measurement data are sufficient. A distinction is made between active and passive identification for transponders.
- Passive identification is characterized by the fact that the transponder can be queried by the reader at any time, without the user or the product having to do anything. They draw their energy from the magnetic field of the reader. This makes them very robust and maintenance-free. If the code transmitter is within a certain distance range from the sending and receiving unit, the identification takes place automatically. The limitation of the distance range generally results from the radio field attenuation. With an active identification system, on the other hand, communication is actively triggered by the user on the transponder. In this case, a user must operate the transponder manually. Active transponders usually have their own energy source in the form of a primary source. The disadvantage here is the limited lifespan.
- LF systems in the frequency range of 100-300 kHz RF systems at 433 MHz or 867 MHz and high-frequency microwave systems, mostly at the frequencies 2.4 GHz, 5.8 GHz, 9.5 GHz or 24 GHz work.
- Transponders in the kHz frequency range have ranges of a few centimeters. They are referred to as proximity tags because they work in close proximity.
- Transponders that work in the MHz frequency range are called Vicinity tags because they are used with ranges of up to approx. 2 m in the vicinity of the acquisition devices.
- Essentially active transponders with a range of up to several meters operate on the frequency of 2.4 GHz.
- RFID systems are increasingly being used in supermarkets, with the proximity transponders being used above all.
- RFID tags In addition to identifying the retail product, such RFID tags have the advantage of a significant improvement in the tracking of goods, so that the logistics processes are easier to understand for the manufacturer than is the case with a barcode.
- the transponders are resistant to environmental influences, such as high and low temperatures, moisture, vibration, shock, dust, oil and dirt.
- the transponder can be installed unobtrusively or invisibly, for example in the packaging.
- self-service checkout facilities are increasingly being used to reduce personnel costs.
- Various self-service checkout devices are known, in which the goods selected by the customer are recorded and an automatic settlement is created.
- the customer brings the goods, which are usually stored in a shopping cart, to the self-service checkout device and leads them to a scanning process in which the barcode on the goods is normally scanned by a barcode reader.
- the goods are then placed in a shelf, which can also be another shopping cart or a shopping bag, and which is coupled to a scale.
- the goods are identified by scanning the barcode, the goods price, the goods type and the weight are determined.
- EP 338 376 A2 describes a method for optically scanning markings such as barcodes on objects in a self-service checkout device. If, however, products are now offered that are partially equipped with a barcode identification tag and partially with an RF-ID identification tag, the cashier staff at a cash register can tell whether the product has an RF-ID tag or a barcode is provided and can then use a barcode reader or an RF-ID reader according to the marking. In the self-service environment, on the other hand, these products, which are marked with an RF-ID transponder, have so far not been able to be recorded using the conventional self-service checkout facilities.
- the object of the invention is therefore to enable secure and rapid detection of articles with a barcode and / or an RF-ID marking on a self-service checkout device.
- the goods inspection station is advantageously provided with a camera.
- the images recorded by the camera are forwarded to the data processing device and it is determined by means of image processing how many products fit the goods inspection station. have settled.
- a double registration for products that have both a barcode and an RF-ID marking can be excluded by comparison with the captured image.
- the RF-ID reader is also advantageously designed as a transmitting device in such a way that transponders that can be written on can be canceled by sending a corresponding code. These transponders are preferably used for high-priced goods. If the customer now leaves the department store, further RF-ID readers can be installed in the exit area, which receive the signals from non-canceled transponders and can thus indicate the illegal misuse of the item, for example by triggering an alarm.
- Fig. 1 a perspective view of a
- Fig. 2 a schematic perspective view
- Fig. 3 Block diagram of the goods entry.
- a self-service checkout device 1 which comprises a carrier housing 2.
- the carrier housing 2 has a goods Version 3, which is equipped with a bar code reader (not shown here) and an RF ID reader.
- a scale for the detection of piece goods such as fruit and vegetables can advantageously be integrated in the goods detection station 3.
- a transport device 20 such as a conveyor belt, is provided, on which the customers place the goods and which the goods move into the scanning area of a goods detection station 30 transported.
- the RF-ID reader 40 is attached below the conveyor belt 20 in order to achieve an optimal use of space.
- One or more barcode readers 50 are preferably attached to the side or above the transport device in order to enable the barcode to be detected in all spatial directions.
- a scale 60 for the detection of piece goods such as fruit and vegetables can be integrated below the conveyor belt 20.
- the RF-ID reader transmits broadband modulated transmission signals as required or continuously and then waits for the reception of reflected signals (echo signals), ie the RF-ID reader is designed as a transmitter and receiver. If a product with a transponder comes close to the RF-ID reader, the RF-ID data carrier (transponder) is activated by the magnetic field of the reader by transmitting the energy required to operate the transponder via a coupling element. Outside the response range of the reader, the transponder behaves passively, as a rule it does not have its own energy supply. In particular in the retail environment, transponders will be used that have a very short range so that unwanted articles cannot be recorded.
- the transponders used in the Handeids environment are permanently programmed data carriers that only reproduce the data that was written at the time the transponder was manufactured.
- the reading device can validate the transponder.
- a further RF-ID reader is installed in the exit area of the supermarket, which can receive the signals from non-canceled transponders. The illegal misappropriation of the item can then be indicated, for example, by triggering an alarm.
- devaluation of special transponders may be necessary for data protection reasons.
- a display 4 is provided for displaying customer information such as the price, the weight, the type of goods, etc., the display 4 preferably being in the vicinity of the goods entry location 3. If, however, it is a self-service checkout device in which the goods are transported to the goods entry station 30 by means of a transport device 20, such as a conveyor belt, the display 4 can also be in another position.
- the display 4 can be designed as a liquid crystal screen and can be provided with a touchscreen function.
- a goods rack is provided which comprises a weighing device 5, so that the weight of the stored goods can be recorded.
- a swipe card reader 6 and a card feed reader 8 for credit cards and ec cards and a PIN input keyboard 7 are advantageously provided for payment processes.
- the goods inspection station 3 can also be optically detected with a video camera 10 which is preferably attached to the display housing 9.
- a camera 100 is attached to the side of the conveyor belt 20 at the goods inspection station 30. However, it can also be positioned above the transport device 20.
- the customer After the goods have been selected, the customer generally brings the goods collected in a shopping cart to the self-service checkout device 1, takes the goods out of the car and scans them over the goods entry point 3 or places the goods on the transport device 20, which places the goods at the goods entry point 30 feeds.
- the barcode attached to the goods or an RF-ID identification tag are recorded at the goods registration location 3, 30.
- the customer places the goods on the weighing device 5, on which the weight of all the goods already recorded is summed up. This weighing device 5 is used to protect against theft. If the weight of the items placed on the weighing device 5 does not match the weight of the items detected, a corresponding message is output on the display 4 or acoustically, which informs the customer that the item that has just been placed has to be readded again.
- the information received by the barcode reader or the RF-ID reader is forwarded to a data processing device in the self-service checkout device and processed there.
- a scanned article is assigned a proposed price from a database. If an article is equipped with both a barcode and an RFID code transmitter, both information can be recorded simultaneously. Since the information is forwarded to the data processing device the double registration is taken into account and only the single price is calculated. Since each product is also characterized by its weight, the data processing device can also be connected to the weighing device 5. In the case of a double registration, it can then be determined by comparison with the weight G determined on the weighing device 5 whether there is actually only one article. In addition, the camera 10, 100 can also be connected to the data processing.
- An image processing B of the image captured by the camera 10, 100 determines how many products are in the area of the goods inspection location 3, 30. In the case of a double detection with an RF-ID marking and a barcode marking, the true number of products can be determined by comparison with the optical result and thus calculated. In addition, camera monitoring can be used if barcode registration and / or RF-ID scanning has not been carried out. Since the camera 10, 100 has detected a surplus number of products in this case, the customer is made aware acoustically or optically that a subsequent detection of individual articles is necessary.
- the customer If the customer has scanned in all goods and the weight of the goods placed on the weighing device 5 always corresponds to the weight that results from the goods entry, the customer presses a button at the end of the process to signal that all goods are now recorded and initiates the payment process.
- the total price is shown on display 4 and the customer can now pay the bill by means of a credit card or his ec card or in cash.
- the weighing device 5 it is possible to record the weighing device 5 from a second video camera, which is not shown here, in order to enable subsequent detection of articles which have not been scanned accidentally.
- the camera is activated Fourth, if the weight of the weighing device 5 changes without an article being scanned or detected by means of an RFID marking. The camera thus detects the last item placed on the weighing device 5.
- This image of the camera can be transmitted to the display 11 of an operator, who is thus informed about the article that has not been recorded and can accordingly request the customer to still read the article that was accidentally not recorded.
- this image capture to the data processing of the barcode reader and the RF-IDF reader in order to avoid double registration for products that are equipped with both marking systems due to the optical verification.
- two self-service checkout facilities are combined, so that a space-saving arrangement of several self-service checkout facilities is made possible.
