The Tourism and hospitality sector demands automation in the process of booking and checking in a hotel with minimal human interaction. It has suffered a huge downfall due to the outbreak of the pandemic. It has estimated to have suffered a global loss of around 4 Trillion Dollars in the last financial year. In accordance with the hackathon's theme,
"Today's problem will bring tomorrow's innovation", we wanted to reimagine hospitality in a new normal. Ever wondered if you can walk in a hotel with minimal human interaction? What if you can simply skip the entire procedure at the reception and simply walk into your room with ease?DeHotel does that for you. It automates and decentralizes the whole hotel check-in process.
Programming on Raspberry Pi - we had very little knowledge of IoT but thankfully, this hackathon exposed us to a lot of hardware-related stuff even if we are from a software background. We were short of a few components but thanks to the organizers-for making sure that we got them on time.
