This project aims to design and implement an advanced inventory management system tailored to the unique needs of robotics laboratories. Robotics labs often handle a diverse range of components, including robots, sensors and specialised tools, making efficient inventory tracking a challenging task.

The proposed system will utilise modern technologies such as open-source software, barcode or RFID tagging, and cloud-based databases to streamline inventory management. The aim is to enable precise tracking, localisation, and loaning of equipment while offering an intuitive and user-friendly interface for both the lab-management team and lab users. The student will be responsible for designing, implementing, validating, and testing a solution tailored for the Human-Centred Computing (HCC) and Robotics Laboratory.

As part of this process, the student will have the opportunity to analyse, evaluate, and, if licensing permits, modify open-source solutions such as:
