As explained above, this device has a tagging function to identify an object. To run this function, the package notifier requires interaction between the user (sender) - IoT device - information system. For the first interaction between the user (sender) and the IoT device, the package notifier utilizes camera technology as a tagger device. The camera has a function to identify objects represented by photos / images of incoming packages. Furthermore, automation occurs in the second interaction. Interaction between the device and the information system which will later send information in the form of photos / images from the first interaction. The final destination of the information journey (photos / images) is the internal chat system that SoftwareSeni uses (SSChat).
Technically, in this package notifier device there are several elements:
- Raspberry Pi 3 model B (Board)

Raspberry Pi is often known as a mini computer where the operating system can be installed simply by inserting a micro sd card that has been injected with the desired operating system. With the high flexibility of raspberry pi, developers can explore to create new commands. In addition, with a relatively affordable board price, raspberry pi is also a suitable hardware for R&D to innovate without burdening the budget.
But keep in mind, whether the innovation carried out is an innovation that will have a big impact on the business (core activity) or just as a support activity. If innovation is the core activity of the company's business, low-cost development is a bad thing. However, if the innovation activity carried out is a supporting activity, the budget must be considered so as not to interfere with the budget on the core activity.
In this case, SoftwareSeni positions the activities carried out by SSLab as supporting activities. Thus, the budget issued must be in accordance with the needs and level of business priorities. And Rudi's team chose the Raspberry Pi 3 model B.
