Smart Modular Parcel Locker System using Internet of Things (IoT)

Abstract

The increase in use cases of last mile delivery is a by-product from the increase in efficiency of globalized goods transportation, to the point that it is applicable for non-commercial endpoints, e.g., personal accommodation. With the surge in use cases, there is an amplified cost in financial and time resources from both logistic companies and the recipients as the amount of endpoints rise. This paper details the development of a proposed system aimed to alleviate the effect by offering concentrated stopping locations to accommodate for different logistic companies to deposit multiple parcels into while the recipients collect them as needed through the implementation of contactless deposit and withdrawal, as well as a modular style of locker unit deployment in a scalable manner.
