Description
Summary:Receiving parcel at home can be an inconvenience task as many would admit that having to be at home to accept a parcel in person whereby the specific time of arrival is unknown making for an overall inconvenient experience. The project, Wi-Fienabled Parcel Box aims to be a simple and cost-effective demonstration on one of the ways to remedy the situation. It is a standalone, special-purpose local web server that controls the parcel box door lock that can be used to receive parcel that requires acknowledgement when there is no one home to receive it. Acknowledgement is sent through SMS from the GSM module of the Parcel Box to a destination number keyedin by the delivery person upon delivery. Wi-Fi-enabled Parcel Box also implements login to authenticate the owner to distinguish client authorized in operating the door lock. Clients are only required to have an 802.11-capabled device and modern web client, both of which are available as a standard on most phones produced today effectively lowering the barrier on utilizing this implementation.
