Contemporary embedded systems are habitually based on microcontroller's i.e. CPUs in the company of integrated memory as well as peripheral interfaces but ordinary microprocessors by means of external chips for memory and peripheral interface circuits are also still common, especially in more complex systems. Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology may not only be useful for streamlining inventory and supply chains: it could also make shoppers swarm. ZigBee is based on an IEEE 802.15 standard. ZigBee devices often transmit data over longer distances by passing data through intermediate devices to reach more distant ones, creating a mesh network; i.e., a network with no centralized control or high-power transmitter/receiver able to reach all of the networked devices. This paper provides centralized and automated billing system using RFID and ZigBee communication. Each product of shopping mall, super markets will be provided with a RFID tag, to identify its type. Each shopping cart is designed or implemented with a Product Identification Device (PID) that contains microcontroller, LCD, an RFID reader, EEPROM, and ZigBee module. Purchasing product information will be read through a RFID reader on shopping cart, mean while product information will be stored into EEPROM attached to it and EEPROM data will be send to Central Billing System through ZigBee module. The central billing system gets the cart information and EEPROM data, it access the product database and calculates the total amount of purchasing for that particular cart. Main aim of this paper was to provide an automatic billing to avoid queue in malls and super markets.
