Abstract:
In some embodiments, systems and methods are provided to confirm customer scanning of products. Some embodiments provide retail store automated product confirmation systems, comprising: a plurality of RFID tag readers; a scan compiling circuit communicatively coupled with a plurality of portable product scanning systems and configured to associate the scanned identifying information with the customer and create a purchase list; and a scan confirmation circuit configured to: receive product identifying information detected by two RFID tag readers and associated with the customer without the customer having to travel through a choke point, generate an RFID detected product listing, determine a current level of accuracy between the RFID detected product listing and the purchase list, and direct an action be taken based on the determined level of accuracy.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of automatically confirming products scanned by customers, comprising:\n receiving at a scan confirmation circuit product identifying information of products detected by at least two different RFID tag readers of a plurality of RFID tag readers arranged in a grid over a sales floor of a retail store, wherein the product identifying information is to be associated with the customer as the customer travels along the sales floor without the customer having to travel through a choke point in the retail store; generating an RFID detected product listing of the products detected by the at least two different RFID tag readers and that are associated with the customer; accessing a purchase list of the products scanned by the customer, wherein the purchase list of products is created by a scan compiling circuit operating independent of the plurality of RFID tag readers and communicatively coupled with a plurality of portable product scanning systems each configured to enable a customer to scan identifying information of products at a retail store that the customer intends to purchase as the customer travels along the sales floor of the retail store; determining a current level of accuracy based on a consistency between the RFID detected product listing and the purchase list; and directing that at least a first action be taken based on the determined level of accuracy determination of whether the RFID detected product listing is consistent with the purchase list.
