Supermarket Object Detection

This project describes the development and prediction model considerations of an object detection system for retail items.

Ideally, the goal is to automate parts of the retailing experience, namely the checkout procedure in a retail store. This is to be achieved by tracking and identifying objects that the customer puts in their physical shopping cart, and then using this information to build a "virtual shopping cart", which would potentially remove the need for a cashier to scan the items and handle payments in a convenience store.

Code can be found here.
