e-commerce has rapidly expanded over recent years, and the volume of this particular type of commerce has contributed to a dramatic rise in the amount of parcel deliveries both to households and business premises. Nevertheless, a problem of missed deliveries, unavailability of receivers, and a chance of theft of a parcel are frequent issues in traditional methods of parcel delivery. These problems reveal the necessity of the safe and automatic system of parcel reception that can be stable without the constant control of a person. The project is dedicated to the design and implementation of a Smart Parcel Receiving System based on the Internet of Things (IoT) technology with the help of secure authentication methods. Proposed system combines ESP32 microcontroller, electromagnetic locking system, OTP verification system implemented in keypad and face recognition system to offer dual-level security system. The system helps deliver personnel to leave the packages safely via a one-time password (OTP), and the family members with authorization could access the parcel box both with face recognition and OTP authentication.
