Design and Development of Delivery Robot for Commercial Purpose

摘要

Nowadays, many robots are being used in industries, homes, military applications, disaster management, etc. worldwide. The advancements in robotics have made lives easier for humans in many aspects, and it provides a safer and more efficient. People’s concerns about secure and frictionless home delivery services have grown due to the present coronavirus scenario around the world. During the tremendous strain on healthcare and hygiene, we have proposed a prototype robot that can be very useful in reducing the danger of infectious disease transmission in the product distribution system. Designing and developing a low-cost autonomous four-wheel portable drive robot prototype that can safely transport packages to a designated location utilizing a Bluetooth module and mobile application have been shown. After the robot reaches at its point of disembarkation, it waits for the customer to unlock the container. The customer will get an otp as a password to open the container and retrieve the ordered product upon delivery. This password in the form of an otp is sent to the customer with the confirmation message from the order. After completing the delivery, the robot will arrive to point of disembarkation on its own. In addition to ensuring infection safe delivery of products, our robot can be an effective technological solution that significantly reduces delivery costs.
