Senior Design Team sdmay19-29 • Automating Inventory Management: Routing through Sensor Networks

Our objective is to provide an integrated solution that will enable more effective management of office pantries. Specifically, we aim at balancing the local and the global management in terms of both customer satisfaction and overall efficiency for Crafty, LLC. Towards that, our proposed solution consists of two main collaborative modules that we plan to develop: (1) a microcontroller device that will monitor the quantities of different items in an individual office pantry, coupled with other existing monitoring tools; (2) software tools that will be able to combine the multiple restocking notifications from different offices, and plan effective shipment and delivery.
