Integrated Real Time Database for Supermarkets

Abstract

Grocery Shop** is an essential need and to aid in this task, we have the shop** trolleys, kiosks, and supermarket staff along with the promotional offers shared through media advertisements to entice customers. But by the time a customer goes to the shop** market, it is very probable that the product is not available or the offer has expired. In these cases, the customer visits another supermarket to complete purchase of the urgent and essential products and realizes that there were better offers and price on some products shopped from the first supermarket. Our app resolves this issue by providing online inventory along with the promotional offers, whereby customer can calculate and optimize the shop**. Furthermore, searching for products in the congested supermarket is a big hassle in itself. So, customers prefer shop** on weekends to have ample time to shop, wasting valuable leisure and family time. To overcome this problem, our app provides the navigation system inside the supermarket to minimize the search time, assisting the customer in picking up the products faster and quicker from respective aisles and shelves. The navigation system of our app is an upgrade from the existing support provided by Alexa in Amazon Go Stores. The online inventory along with pricing and promotional offers and the assistance of the navigation system will help customers make better decisions and spend less time on shop** in the supermarket, thereby inducing them to go shop** during weekdays, leading to free time on the weekends.
