    摘要: A handcart (10) includes a cart frame (31, 41, 51), a caster (32), and a code reader (120, 140). The cart frame includes a receiving portion on which a shopping basket is placeable and a lateral portion extending in a width direction of the cart frame. The caster is disposed at a bottom region of the cart frame. The code reader is attached to the lateral portion of the cart frame so as to be rotatable around the lateral portion. The code reader may be rotated around the lateral portion of the cart frame to a first position at which a reading window of the code reader faces an inner space of the shopping basket on the receiving portion of the cart frame, and to a second position at which the reading window of the code reader faces a front of the cart frame.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a code symbol reading unit (first reading unit) reads a barcode (code symbol) attached to a commodity from images of the commodity captured by an image control unit (imaging unit) using a first camera, a second camera, and a third camera. An electronic watermark reading unit (second reading unit) reads an electronic watermark attached to the commodity from the images. An object recognition unit (commodity recognition unit) recognizes the commodity from the images. Further, a commodity identification unit (commodity identification unit) identifies the commodity appearing in the images based on at least one of a reading result of the code symbol reading unit, a reading result of the electronic watermark reading unit, and a recognition result of the object recognition unit.

    摘要: A product scanner apparatus includes an image capturing device to image an object using visible light. A first reading module is configured to attempt to read a barcode symbol in a captured image from the image capturing device. The barcode symbol provides an identification of the object when read. A second reading module is configured to attempt to read digital watermark information on a product tag affixed to the object. A controller is configured to control the image capturing device to capture an image of the object, control the first reading module to read the barcode symbol, and then control the second reading module to read digital watermark information only if the barcode symbol is successfully read. The product tag includes visible text printed on a surface thereof and the digital water information encodes discount information corresponding to the visible text.

    摘要: A sales-data processing apparatus comprises a main body section of a columnar shape. A reader is in the main body section and configured to read information for identifying a commodity in a sales transaction. An operator display is directed to an operator side of the main body section. A customer display, adjacent the operator display section, is directed to a customer side of the main body section. An input device is provided for receiving input operations related settlement processing from a customer on the customer side of the main body section. The input device is positioned adjacent to the customer display. A supporting section is attached to the main body section to support the input device at the position substantially adjacent to the customer display.
