Our project is based on a real world context in the midst of the global Covid-19 pandemic. As seen on the news and in articles, In 2021, around eight thousand workers were retrenched in Singapore, the lowest in a ten-year period. Hence due to the reduced amount of staff in convenience stores such as 7-11 and cheers, juggling between restocking products by patrolling the store to check for availability and attending to customers, customers and the business and its staff experiences many inconveniences and have an unpleasant time at the store.
Therefore I came up with the product, the SS-BOT which is a smart restock and and temperature alert system.
This is to help reduce the manual labour of the staffs of convenience stores in the midst of covid-19 and enhances the experiences of workers and customers due to the laying off of many staffs around the Singapore.
Our project uses the M5 Stack fire IoT development kit, ENV II, TOF and grove hub.
How does it work?- Env II (thermal scanner) —> M5 Stack —> detect temperature —> if above or below 19-23 degrees—> Speaker will ring and red rgb light lit from M5 Stack to warn the staff/ if temperature is constant at 19- 21 degrees, speaker will not ring and will have green rgb light lit—> will display “temperature is too high” or “....too low” or “temperature is fine”.
- TOF (time of flight) —>M5 Stack —> measure distance between products and the end of the shelf —> if distance is above 75mm —> speaker will ring and red rgb light lit from from M5 Stack —> warn staff and display “restock is required” or “stock is full”.
ENV II function: Sense environmental conditions such as temperature.
TOF function: Distance sensing between the products and back of the shelf to gauge availability.
In conclusion, our product will buzz and light up the red rgb light in a case where the temperature is not correct and need to be changed or when a restock is needed and will display that the staff needs to either fix the temperature or restock or both.
If temperature or restock is not required the rgb light would be lit up green and no buzz will be heard, the m5 stack will display that stock is full and the temperature is fine.
Therefore, this greatly reduces the manual labour of the staff as they do not need to walk up and down to check if everything is in stock. So the staff can give his attention to attending the customers, hence the customers experience an improved experience and convenience and the workload of the staff is reduced.
