Abstract : This paper provides an introduction to the multidisciplinary nature of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) ‎application as well as the complexity of radio frequency (RF) and data exchange for RFID-associated data. We propose the ‎use of Self-Checkout using RFID Technology. Now with the noticed improvement in technology and communication, the ‎world has become a small village where the people share information in an easy way. So, the time aspect is more important ‎than ever and the people care about saving each and every second. Of course, everybody has been to markets in order to ‎buy some items such as cloths, food, etc therefore the customer needs to find a free cashier to complete the purchase ‎process. The research focuses to fix this problem, here is the problem. There is a lot of time wasted due to long queues, and ‎effort on the Cashier consumption to deal with all the items one by one. All the existing solutions are using barcode ‎technology to characterize by using a unique set of integer number for each product or items. This unique number is kept to ‎restore the data of the products by passing the item’s barcode to a code reader. This step is repeated until the last item in the ‎cart, and the system will calculate the total price. The research will implement RFID technology in order to replace the ‎current system. It will help to reduce the waiting time. With this system, customers fill their carts as usual, but instead of going ‎to find an open cashier, they walk past an RFID reader gates on their way out the door. The reader reads all of items in the ‎cart in a matter of seconds, and the customer pay the total amount to the cashier worker and gets the receipt and resource ‎saving.‎ The proposed solution is designed and implemented by using UHF-RW-MP-232-V1 RFID reader. Therefore, the proposed ‎system for the Smart Cashier includes tagged objects (Items), read object (RFID-Reader) and the computing system is ‎implemented using Java platform. Different resources are needed such as RFID-kit (Reader and Tags) as well as associated ‎items like ID-tags that will contain information about products. The reader will be embedded and installed at the gate. The ‎installed hardware with the related software and database is used to handle this situation when the cart moves through the ‎gate. The reader sends UHF “Ultra High Frequency” radio waves to the tag (Passive-Tag). When the tag receives this signal it ‎will convert it to energy to resend back the signal that will contains information about items. The reader will receive the signal ‎from tag and will process the information by the program then will display the result on a monitor. All these Operations will ‎be done in a matter of seconds‎
