Project S.A.L
By : Kineri Shah, Sohayainder Kaur and Vanshika Sanghi
Being a college student especially in Srishti, can get tough sometimes. Keeping track of the daily assignments and classes, finding the printer when it’s empty and remembering all the different excuses for coming late can get particularly hard.
Hence, we thought of coming up with an idea to ease the student’s workload and to do so, we used an object a student interacts with daily, their own locker!
Project S.A.L (Srishti’s Advanced Lockers) is your own personal and fully customisable conversational agent embedded in your locker. It tracks your daily affairs, syncs with your phone as well as blackboard and also works on the school wifi! S.A.L can help you keep track of all of your workload and classes. It sets goals and targets for you, tells you all about faculty, where you need to go and the best excuses to give to the facilitators incase you’re late!
It also tells you when the printer has no commands and decides the best time for you to print.
Working :
It’s a screen that is embedded in your locker. S.A.L is a text based as well as sound based voice service that works at the touch of just a button! It gets activated by entering a password at the start of the day and then just by pressing the button at the bottom of the screen to activate the voice service throughout the day.
Since it’s fully customisable, you can change it’s name, alter any settings to your liking. You can make it a fully text based service as well and if there’s too much commotion and noise, it sends you a notification and converts to text based service itself.
A student’s identity information is provided to S.A.L when the lockers are assigned and blackboard access is given. One can provide it their phone access so that S.A.L can help you set goals and targets by setting reminders for your assignments and help manage your work load.
It’s a machine learning device and adapts itself to the user. It knows what you need and it guides you through it or even does it for you and makes your life much more easier.
S.A.L is a potential idea that makes the school storage lockers more than just storage spaces. It makes it your own personal organiser and on top of that your pal.
We hope you enjoy the concept demonstration and all kinds of feedback and inputs are much appreciated!
