At my local store they sell orange juice with fibers and without. The bottles looks almost the same, but one buttle has a small text “With fibers”. I mean, the scanner would never see the difference.
This is awesome!
Aw. When you say beer can it doesn’t sound like a Jamaican saying bacon.
Its a concept yes, and it’s reading a damn APPLE… Barcodes are obviously not essential, i do agree about cashiers though. If a bottle has been damaged, would you really want to pay money for it? And i wonder how well barcode readers do when the barcode label has been peeled off… o wait, i know, it doesn’t.
This is just a stupid statement. When the etiquette from, let’s say a bar code, has been peeled off, or damaged, the bar code scanners can’t recognize the thing. Object identification scanning of the products are essential, and so are robot cashiers. They can help the costumers whenever they need it.
think of all the jobs lost because of this technology…not only in japan…but if this tech was implemented in the US

now. what about in a year?
An average cashier can scan at least six articles, while that thing can only scan one.
ludite
I mean if this makes it over here to the US haha
So what happens to the economy when people are out of work, because they where replaced with machines?
that’s a good thing for Japan because there are not enough young people and young people should work in business and other things. If machines can do work that is not well paid and doesn’t require a lot of skills, that’s a good thing.
it’s still a prototype and they are probably going to make it have a motion sensor or something so that it can go on automatically.
That’s interesting and smart. Sometimes, shops mistake the prices and you pay too much or too little.
I find it scary how robots will take over people’s work…
Japan is soo cool!
HIRO NAKAMURA!!!!!!!!!
WELCOME TO ROBOT- LAND !
This could be very useful in cases in which using a barcode is more or less imposible.
I’ve seen lines being stopped just because the barcodes are in places when it is nearly imposible for most machines to read them.
Thank you toshiba!
This looks a lot slower than a normal checkout. The (beautiful) checkout girl has to press one or more buttons after every item scanned. In my local supermarket, when buying fresh fruit or veg, you put it on a scales, select what type of produce it is, and the scales prints a sticker with a barcode on it.
BAMMM….. 10,000 JOBS GONE
And now we wait 10 years for the technology to be used in America.
Very nice system.
