| 總結: | Issues with existing smart parcel system using conventional power supply contribute to high energy consumption which lead to a significant carbon footprint and environmental pollution. To overcome the issue, this work introduces an innovative solution: the "Energy Efficiency Smart Parcel Box System Using Solar Energy." This system aims to revolutionize the parcel delivery and retrieval process by integrating smart technology and sustainable energy sources to enhance efficiency, security, and environmental sustainability. The proposed system consists of a network of smart parcel lockers strategically placed in residential and commercial areas. Each locker unit is equipped with solar panels to power its operations, QR code authentication, an infrared sensor for detection and automated door closure, and a user-friendly mobile application. Customers can conveniently receive and send parcels through a secure and automated process. This innovative methodology ensures an energy-efficient and eco-friendly operation by utilizing solar energy. Generally, literature and case studies have shown potential energy consumption reductions of up to 100% for certain periods under optimal conditions. However, for continuous and reliable operation, a combination of solar power and energy storage (batteries) is necessary. It also incorporates various advanced technologies, such as QR code scanning, infrared sensing, and GSM communication, to enhance security, automate processes, and provide a seamless user experience. The system's ability to operate independently using solar power makes it a cost-effective and sustainable solution for modern parcel delivery needs. This innovation aligns with the ongoing global efforts to create a greener and more sustainable future, providing a promising solution for the challenges faced in modern logistics and parcel management. © The 2025 International Conference on Artificial Life and Robotics (ICAROB2025).
