Publication number: 20240078510Abstract: A mobile smart container system comprises a housing, an access component configured to secure access to a compartment within the housing when in a closed position, a communication interface configured to wirelessly receive a request to access the compartment, a perceivable output device, an electromechanical latch configured to engage with the access component to releasably lock the access component in the closed position, and a processor. The processor receives and authenticates the request to access the compartment and, in response to receiving and authenticating the request, activates the electromechanical latch to unlock the access component to make the compartment accessible, and outputs, upon actuation of the electromechanical latch, an alert via the perceivable output device to identify the smart container system.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Michael K. RAHILLY, Brendan John BURGESS, Ramkumar SUBRAMANIAN, Mustafa YUSUFI, Monica WYLY
