  1. Smart Shopping Cart The shopping cart of the future Nicole Berkovich and Ian O’Leary

  2. Mechatronics • Mechatronics is the system that is compromised of several components that work together in order to form a complete system. These components include: • Mechanical Components • Electrical Components • Electromechanical Components • Hardware • Computer Systems

  3. Introduction to the BASIC Stamp • BASIC Stamp is used in mechatronics to relay commands to mechanical components via computer programming • Commonly used in microcontrollers • It is able to control and monitor switches, timers, motors, sensors, relays, valves, and more

  4. Our BASIC Stamp • BASIC Stamp 2 Module • Personal uses: • Proximity sensors • Servos • Battery power supply • Customized program

  5. Shopping CartPurpose • We have designed an automatic shopping cart that is controlled by a basic stamp to be used in common shopping centers • Provides the most logical route to retrieve needed products and leads the shopper to the products

  6. Shopping CartProcedure • We built a prototype of the shopping cart out of plexi-glass, and used ultrasonic sensors as well as a customized PBasic program to ensure that the shopping cart follows the most logical route to all products and does not run into obstacles on the way.

  7. Shopping CartProgramming • A programmed coordinate plane • X- coordinates lead to aisle • Y-coordinates lead to section • Allows for automatic ordering of products • Program can be changed based on location of product and availability (ie: automatic inventory)
