Enhancing Retail Checkout: Automated Payments via LiFi Technology

Abstract The increasing demand for seamless retail transactions highlights a critical need for efficient, automated billing. LiFi (Light Fidelity), a new wireless technology using light waves, offers a promising solution with its high-speed and secure data transmission capabilities. Integrating LiFi into automated billing systems could transform retail operations, providing faster data flow and heightened security.

While previous research has looked at LiFi in other areas like indoor positioning and healthcare, and confirmed the benefits of automated billing, our study specifically focused on combining the two. We deployed LiFi transceivers at simulated billing counters to enable data communication via light. This was integrated with automatic billing software in a meticulously built retail environment, complete with RFID readers and customer interactions, to simulate real-world scenarios.

Our comprehensive evaluation involved testing the system's performance metrics (speed, throughput, reliability) under various loads. We also rigorously assessed security features like encryption and authentication to safeguard sensitive transaction data. User feedback was collected to understand the system's usability, clarity, and overall user experience.
