- Description
- Consider the present scenario of placing online food orders while traveling, waiting for them, and struggling to collect them on time. This issue can be addressed by creating and deploying a fully functional high-tech vending machine. With the evolution of technology and the necessity for constant improvement in service quality, customers are thriving for a better customer experience. This article aims to design and methodologically assess the importance of installing vending machines around the most crowded public transportation hubs by dispensing purchased food or beverages online. It focuses on providing a convenient delivery mode for online-ordered food at travel boarding points and public gatherings. Vending machines at these locations gather and distribute food to consumers based on orders from online food delivery apps such as Swiggy, and Zomato, thus optimizing and improving the delivery experience. It focuses on optimizing the operational cost associated with online food delivery platforms and reducing the carbon emissions contributed by multiple deliveries that happen towards the common drop-off points. 2024 Srinesh Thakur, Anvita Electronics, 16-11-762, Vijetha Golden Empire, Hyderabad.
