Abstract

In today's world, the trolleys are used in most places like a shopping mall, hospitals, colleges, etc., and everything is manually operated using their physical strength. This paper proposes an automated human following trolley using the image and video processing. The HSV value of the image taken from the camera will be calculated. If it matches the valid sticker's value, then the trolley will follow that person who has a specific sticker by maintaining a constant distance from that person. The distance estimation technique is used to calculate the distance between the user and the trolley. Background subtraction algorithm is used for recognition and detection purposes. The basic model of the following human trolley was designed, and it was tested under various lighting conditions and verified the correctness of background subtraction by keeping invalid stickers. The designed model was confined with a boundary like hospitals and shopping malls. The same approach with some improvements could be used in other fields like schools and colleges, libraries, agricultural fields, war fields, etc.

Important Announcements

All the authors, conference coordinators, conveners, and guest editors kindly check their articles' originality before submitting them to IJCERT. If any material is found to be duplicate submission or sent to other journals when the content is in the process with IJCERT, fabricated data, cut and paste (plagiarized), at any stage of processing of material, IJCERT is bound to take the following actions.
1. Rejection of the article.
2. The author will be blocked for future communication with IJCERT if duplicate articles are submitted.
3. A letter regarding this will be posted to the Principal/Director of the Institution where the study was conducted.
4. A List of blacklisted authors will be shared among the Chief Editors of other prestigious Journals
We have been screening articles for plagiarism with a world-renowned tool: Turnitin However, it is only rejected if found plagiarized. This more stern action is being taken because of the illegal behavior of a handful of authors who have been involved in ethical misconduct. The Screening and making a decision on such articles costs colossal time and resources for the journal. It directly delays the process of genuine materials.
