Title: Detection of under-scanning at a point of sale
Inventor: JOSEPH MORRIS
IPC: G07G1/00
Filed: 2020-06-25
Abstract: A system and method of detecting under-scanning at a point of sale 10 in a retail outlet, the point of sale having a conveyor 12 controlled by a sensor arrangement which activates the conveyor when goods 14 are not present in an end region and deactivates the conveyor when goods are present in the end region; and a reader 26 for reading product identifiers from presented goods. Conveyer activation data, relating to times at which the conveyer is activated, and product read data, relating to times at which product identifiers are read from the goods, is collected and analysed in order to identify actual or suspected under-scanning. The analysis may detect conveyor activations which are not followed by a product read and determine a frequency of such activations. The sensor arrangement may include a light source 18 which emits a beam 20 onto a detector 22, such that items in the end region break the beam. A second sensor arrangement 32, 34 and 36 may detect items being passed from the conveyor to a collection zone 28. The analysis may apply artificial intelligence or machine learning techniques to the collected data.
