Every other checkout I’ve used has lag time after the scan and until the scale settles. Some even have visual feedback that indicates a busy status during this repeating part of the checkout process. Not to mention the human lag time of moving the product to the scale.
There is no scale on the Home Depot units. You can scan as fast as the scan gun accepts scans. I’ve scanned 2-3 items per second with these.
Using an I7 is a move to future proof. These units will likely be in service 10, maybe 15 years from now.
