Automatic Package Segregation Machine

Abstract

The project aims to revolutionize package sorting in local non-metropolitan post offices by introducing an Automatic Package Segregation Machine (APSM) that utilizes image processing technology. Traditional sorting methods are labor-intensive and time-consuming, leading to inefficiencies in package handling. The APSM offers a user-friendly solution by automatically sorting packages based on addresses printed on them, thereby reducing manual effort and time consumption. Unlike bulky machines used in metropolitan cities, the APSM is designed to be space-efficient, making it suitable for regional non-metropolitan post offices. Additionally, a web-based platform will be developed to monitor sorting in real-time and maintain a database of sorted packages, providing enhanced efficiency and transparency in postal operations. Through the implementation of the APSM and accompanying web platform, the project aims to streamline package sorting processes, enhance operational efficiency, and modernize postal services in small towns and cities where alternative sorting methods are limited.
