Project description
In the fast-paced world of eCommerce, package delivery is a crucial component of a business’s success. The process of sorting packages can be tedious, time-consuming, and costly for businesses. But what if there was a way to automate this process? Enter Sort to Light, a revolutionary technology that streamlines parcel sorting using QR codes.
The project was commissioned by Daraz, an eCommerce company looking to simplify their parcel sorting process. The goal was to create a system that would allow parcels to be sorted faster and more efficiently, reducing the time and labor costs associated with manual sorting. The solution was to use QR codes and a handheld scanner to sort parcels automatically.
The first version of the system was a fully dynamic cloud-based system. However, the client was concerned about complexity and information leakage, and the system was rejected. Despite the challenges faced by the development team, they did not give up. They came up with a second version of the system that was fully wired and did not require any wireless connectivity or displays. This version was much simpler and more practical, addressing the client’s concerns and needs.
The way Sort to Light works is simple. Each parcel has a QR code printed on a sticker. The handheld scanner scans the QR code, and the destination bin’s light is turned on, indicating where the parcel should be placed. The person scanning the parcel puts it in the designated bin, and the process is repeated for each parcel. Once all the parcels have been sorted, a report can be generated using a PC.
The system’s simplicity is its strength, and it is designed to be user-friendly and efficient. The lack of wireless connectivity and displays means that the system is secure and free from any potential security risks. The system’s focus is on practicality and ease of use, making it ideal for businesses looking to streamline their parcel sorting process.
The Sort to Light system was developed by a team of engineers and technicians from AXIOM International, Resonance Engineering & Technology and Vision Technology. They worked tirelessly for months to come up with a solution that would meet the client’s needs and address their concerns. The system has been successfully implemented, and it has revolutionized parcel sorting for Daraz, making the process faster, more efficient, and cost-effective.
In conclusion, Sort to Light is a revolutionary technology that automates the parcel sorting process using QR codes. It is user-friendly, secure, and practical, making it an ideal solution for businesses looking to streamline their parcel sorting process. The success of the project is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the development team and demonstrates the power of technology in simplifying and improving business processes.
