Techniques are disclosed for verifying one or more physical metrics to verify self-checkout procedures. When checking out, a user may scan a barcode for each product and submit an image of the bag that should contain the scanned products. The image is then analyzed to calculate various dimensions that are indicative of a cumulative weight and/or volume of the scanned products. By performing such measurements, an expected range of weights and/or volumes may be calculated and associated with the bag including each of the scanned products. The scanned product barcode data may also be used to lookup information such as weight and volume of each product, and to calculate a total weight and/or volume for all scanned products. These calculated totals may be compared to the expected range of values to verify that all scanned products have been bagged, and thus authenticate the self-checkout process.
