Abstract: [0061] An intelligent shopping cart system (100) integrates RFID-based product identification (12, 14) with machine-learning analytics (40) to provide real-time, point- of-scan allergy-risk alerts (30) based on individualized family profiles (50). It features a fraud-detection module (72) that fuses RFID data with load-cell weight measurements (70), selectively activating a camera-based vision fallback (74) upon mismatch. The system also includes extended health-safety (80, 82, 84), post- purchase sustainability tracking (110, 114, 116), multi-cart synchronization (120), and edge-computing for offline inference (140), enhancing shopping efficiency, safety, and environmental responsibility.
