There's a good chance that the GoFa Shopping Cart could very well be the future of grocery shopping. This unique concept cart was designed by Abhinav Dapke to reduce the time spent in the cashier's checkout line.
The GoFa Shopping Cart is tech savvy with an RFID or NFC reader installed into it. The reader can scan and store each item you put into your cart. When you are ready to check out, the cashier simply plugs your cart into his check stand and charges you for the items scanned. The new system also color codes items to make them easier to bags with color coded bags provided by the store to let you bag while you shop. Automated check stands are already in place in many grocery stores throughout the country. Could check stand shopping carts be next?
