Inspiration
Experiences with stolen or damaged packages, not being at home when packages are delivered
What it does
Package protector is a smart lock box that
How we built it
Software
- Arduino IDE
- C++
- React Native
- Twilio Electronics
- Ultrasonic sensor
- Stepper motor
- Servo motor
- ESP32
- Qualcomm HDK8450 (Display, Camera)
Challenges we ran into
- Setting up GET requests to acquire sensor data/status to determine what messages to alert user with.
- Integrating different sensor configuration files into the source code.
- Mechanical design of the lock box (Lock, lid, electronics position)
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Resolving our delivery headaches while bringing a proof of concept to life!
What we learned
START CAD DESIGN EARLY, we couldn't get our 3D print in :(.
What's next for Package Protector!
Facial recognition feature for user to retrieve the package without their phones.
