M16 Mini Point-of-Sale Terminal

This project is a portable point-of-sale terminal designed to manage the sale of laboratory and class supplies in a university environment. Bar code data is uploaded from a PC. The data is stored in an M16C/28 microcontroller’s flash memory. A common hand-held scanner is used to scan the bar codes on items, and the prices are shown on a large graphic LCD. Unlike commercial POS models, this project’s low cost makes it affordable to the audience it was designed for.
