Locker systems have grown in popularity in public places such as gyms,
airports, and theme parks, as they provide consumers with a secure and handy
storage alternative. However, Traditional lockers lack suitable security features,
and some customers have difficulties obtaining a locker that is the right size for
their goods. Furthermore, these lockers are not always sanitized, allowing germs
and bacteria to spread. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought to light the need for
enhanced safety measures in public areas. This study aims to develop a prototype
locker system that incorporates UV-C light disinfection, real-time facial recognition,
and RFID wristband authentication, to provide a secure and hygienic storage
solution. With the integration of UV-C light disinfection, it can effectively reduce the
spread of harmful bacteria and viruses, promoting a safer and healthier
environment for users. The use of real-time facial recognition and RFID wristband
authentication provides a secure and contactless method of accessing personal
belongings, reducing the risk of transmission of infectious diseases. The system
was tested for durability, ease of use, and security, with positive results. The
system's facial recognition technology and RFID wristbands were tested for
accuracy and reliability, with high levels of accuracy and reliability observed. The
integration of sustainable practices and cutting-edge technology makes it an
innovative and valuable addition to any facility looking to enhance its safety
measures while promoting sustainable practices, by contributing to the
development of safe and sustainable storage solutions.
