Prompt
Create an A3 portrait academic poster titled "SELF-CHECKOUT SYSTEMS: HOW COMPUTER SCIENCE STREAMLINED RETAIL — LEGAL, ETHICAL & PROFESSIONAL INSIGHTS". The poster should have a navy (#0B2748) and light grey (#E6E9EE) color palette with teal (#3AA5C3) accent icons. Layout should be 8 equal rectangular panels (2-column grid, 4 rows) with rounded corners, each panel having an icon at top-left and bullet points. The title banner spans the full width at top. Use Montserrat Bold for header, Bebas Neue for section titles, and Open Sans for body text. Include flat line-art icons for each section: touchscreen, lock, barcode, ML chip, stopwatch, scales, GDPR lock, wheelchair, and people silhouettes. Panel 1: Problem & Rationale (long queues, staffing costs, need for faster checkout). Panel 2: How Computer Science Solved It (barcode algorithms, ML vision, Touch UI research). Panel 3: Metrics of Success (70% adoption, queue time reduction, labor cost reduction). Panel 4: Pros (faster checkout, 24/7 availability, lower labor costs). Panel 5: Cons/Risks (customer frustration, employee displacement, accessibility gaps). Panel 6: Legal & Ethical (GDPR, Equality Act 2010, BCS Code). Panel 7: Stakeholders (customer, employee, retail manager, executive, policy maker). Panel 8: References with QR code. Include pie chart for 70% metric and bar chart for queue-time drop. Ensure high contrast and ample whitespace.
