Design and Fabrication of Smart Shelf System

Abstract

In order to solve an issue that most stores have, this project will use a load cell to measure weight and communicate the weight input to a HX711 converter, which converts the signal to a digital number. The digital value is used to notify the consumer of the stock level. The owner of the shop will receive a notification on their cell phone every time the supply is low telling them to replenish. We have started using PIR sensors to utilize less electricity. Only motion causes a light bulb to turn on. We'll utilize a relay in this case, which uses energy from a power source to turn on or off switch connections. Retailers may employ smart shelves for a variety of purposes, including as better storage, better decision-making, informing the back-end system of the number of products already on the shelf, monitoring product levels, detecting theft, and finding missing items. If necessary, the network of shelves might communicate updated product inventories to shop owners, managers, employees, customers, warehouse personnel, or producers. As a result, there is no need to make an order or conduct a physical inventory count at the warehouse or storeroom.
