Abstract
The shooping cart is used at large food stores. The cart is collected from outside the store and initially docked with a control unit. The control unit contains a computer and devices for weighing products and reading their barcodes. The computer also provides information, e.g. product location, and can perform market researh. The customer places products in the controller which identifies them. The product is then mechanically lowered into the base of the trolley. When the trolley reaches a checkout desk it automatically causes a receipt to be issued. The controller is undocked and the purchases taken to a car before returning the trolley.
