I don't think either the tech or the humans are quite ready for this
yet. The way to go is the Amazon way in the states where the cameras
and other sensors can keep track of what you get and charge you with
no interaction whatsoever.

I'd really like to test that and see if it works accurately.

I suspect not

Yeah, can't see how it can even if the trolley weighs itself
continuously, particularly with loose veg and fruit etc.

presumably there is no loose veg

Cant see that being viable with lettuce and cabbage etc.

why ever not?

Those have to be loose.

Obviously the pack size will be one (and the price will be per unit not
per kilo)

But if you put the sticker on one of the leaves
of the iceberg lettuce, that leaf can come off.

but some shops rund ere pack and price them that way

Yeah, ours do that with lettuce. Dunno about cabbage,
I don't buy those.

The cabbages in particular can range from football sized to ones barely
bigger than a tennis ball, all for the same price. I refuse to buy unless
I get the football, but others are obviously not so choosey
