Project Ecoceno

OUR CONTRIBUTION

CRON partnered with Ecoceno to produce the first prototype of their fully automated packaging collection system, consisting of an internet-connected device and a backend ready to scale to thousands of return points.

Allowing remote monitoring as well as scalable operation, this automated Ecoceno return point is capable of storing dozens of packages in a fully autonomous manner.

The final product was integrated into the existing solution and applications through the definition and implementation of specific APIs for integration.
