Hey Road, I noticed yesterday you had mentioned Scan Tunnels (I think the post got deleted). From my understanding Google is working on something similar...but it uses RFID. Is there another method using barcodes?

What I know is essentially a customer just walks through a tunnel and RFID chips register to the POS and essentially rings all items up within less than 10 seconds. Wal-Mart does currently use the same idea with it's distribution process. All trucks dropping off a delivery pass by RFID stations and it cross-references with out-going and in-coming inventory. It also tracks delivery times and verification.
