The self-checkouts in the UK don't seem to let you scan stuff as fast as a cashier.
The machines also have a pressure sensor that detects that you have placed items on it after scanning, if you don't allow time for the sensor to settle the machine will give an error and require a cashier to reset it.
- CraigRood 10y agoTesco do a "Scan as you Shop" service in some stores that use a handheld laser scanner that allows you to scan whilst you shop. Interestingly the same scanners can be used for the online order picking.
