Teraoka Seiko launches RFID, gravity sensor self-service vending system
In recent years, against the background of rising national environmental awareness, Lawson and other large retail companies have accelerated the introduction of "weigh-and-sale", seized the changes in consumer demand, and popularized them in one fell swoop.
The scales and distributors are matched with the machines needed for weighing and sales. The green label on the container is the RFID label.
"All-in-One Rack" consists of a scale, a dispenser for storing and distributing goods, and a 500-yen coin-sized gravity sensor module called "e.Sense". e.Sense has a built-in 2.4GHz communication module, which is installed on the lid and handle of the commodity distributor.
When the gravity sensor detects the consumer's action of taking out the product from the dispenser, it will notify the host of the product information through wireless communication technology, and then the basic information of the product will be displayed on the touch screen and the consumer will be required to confirm it. After confirmation, the machine will print out a barcode sticker that records product information such as product name, weight, price, etc. Consumers can settle at the cashier with the product and the barcode sticker.
At present, when consumers use self-service weighing to carry out weighing and sales in the market, consumers often need to select the goods to be purchased through the touch panel. Therefore, it is easy for consumers to choose the wrong goods and lead to the problem of checkout errors.
"The automatic input of product names can reduce such errors and make it easier to realize the popularization of self-service volume vending. From loading products into containers to printing barcode stickers, only customer operations can be completed, so the store does not require staff. "Teraoka Seiko Media Solutions Division Director Naohiro Watanabe explained.
The integrated gravity sensor "e.s sense" of the wireless communication module detects the action of picking up the goods and informs the scale, saving consumers the trouble of choosing the name of the product
"All-in-One Rack" also supports high-frequency RFID tags. If consumers want to use their own containers, they must affix an RFID tag sticker with the weight of the container in advance. In this way, the machine can automatically read the data of the RFID tag when weighing and measuring, and automatically subtract the weight of the container.
In addition, "All-in-One Rack" is also equipped with an electronic price tag. When temporarily using the touch screen to register or modify product information, the electronic price tag will also switch accordingly, reducing the trouble of manually making the price tag and preventing price calculation errors due to the difference between the price tag and the registration information.
