Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-01-31

I. Introduction.

With the rapid development of science and technology, the Internet of Things technology has penetrated into various industries, especially in logistics and distribution, and its application has brought significant efficiency improvements and cost reductions. In the new retail model of the community, the Internet of Things technology has played a key role, optimizing the logistics and distribution process and improving the consumer experience through real-time monitoring, precise positioning, intelligent scheduling, etc.

2. Overview of new retail in the community.

Community ** new retail is a new type of retail model based on the community, which realizes bulk procurement by gathering the purchase needs of community residents, and then delivers it to the designated location of the community by the merchant. This model not only reduces the shopping cost of consumers, but also reduces the inventory pressure of merchants, and at the same time reduces logistics costs through centralized distribution.

3. The application of Internet of Things technology in logistics and distribution.

1.Real-time monitoring: IoT technology can collect and transmit location, temperature, humidity, vibration and other information in real time through sensors installed on logistics vehicles and goods, making the logistics process transparent. In this way, not only can problems be found and dealt with in a timely manner, ensuring the safety and quality of goods, but also providing consumers with accurate delivery information and improving service satisfaction.

2.Precise positioning: IoT technology can achieve accurate positioning of logistics vehicles through GPS, Beidou and other satellite navigation systems, so as to achieve optimal route planning and real-time scheduling. This is especially important for the community** new retail, because a large number of goods need to be accurately and quickly distributed to various communities, avoiding delays and waste caused by unreasonable routes or improper scheduling.

3.Intelligent scheduling: IoT technology can achieve intelligent scheduling through big data analysis and artificial intelligence algorithms, and optimize logistics demand and resource allocation. For example, based on historical data and real-time information, the right vehicles and people can be arranged in advance based on the purchase demand and delivery volume of each communityIt can also dynamically adjust the delivery route and time according to traffic conditions and weather forecasts to reduce waiting and empty driving.

Fourth, the specific application cases of Internet of Things technology in the new retail of the community.

1.A fresh e-commerce company uses Internet of Things technology to realize the full traceability from farm to table. They install RFID tags on agricultural products, and monitor the temperature, humidity, light and other information in planting, picking, transportation, storage and other links in real time through the IoT platform to ensure the quality and safety of products. At the same time, they also use GPS and Beidou systems to accurately locate the location and status of logistics vehicles to achieve fast and accurate distribution.

2.A community** platform uses Internet of Things technology to optimize the delivery process and user experience. They set up smart express lockers in each community to automatically identify and record the information and status of goods through IoT technology, and users can view and pick up the goods at any time through the mobile app, without waiting and contacting the delivery staff. At the same time, they also use big data and AI algorithms to improve distribution efficiency and satisfaction by scheduling logistics needs and resources.

V. Conclusions. The application of Internet of Things technology in the community's new retail not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of logistics and distribution, but also improves consumers' shopping experience and service satisfaction. With the further development and popularization of IoT technology, we look forward to the emergence of more innovative applications and business models to promote the development and prosperity of new retail in the community.
