Scan Go is a mobile self-checkout system developed using Flutter and Dart. It enables users to conveniently scan barcodes of items at the shelf, add them to a virtual shopping cart, and make payments within the Android application. This self-checkout system aims to streamline the shopping experience and provide a seamless transaction process.
Barcode Scanning: Utilize the device's camera to scan barcodes of products quickly and accurately. Shopping Cart: Maintain a virtual shopping cart to add and manage selected items. Item Details: Display detailed information about scanned products, such as name, price, and quantity. Quantity Adjustment: Allow users to adjust the quantity of items in their shopping cart. Secure Payments: Enable secure and convenient payment options within the app. Order History: Provide a history of past purchases for users to reference.
