Abstract
A home storage of various, perishable goods (e.g. food items, sanitary products, medical supplies etc.) is an integral part of any household. It gains even more importance in case of unexpected events, such as pandemics, when people tend to stock up for months ahead. However, with higher amounts of perishable items at home, the probability of food spoilage (and thus, food waste) occurring is also higher, unless each item is carefully accounted for. In this paper, a novel smart storage framework is presented for tracking the expiration date and location of stored items and providing users with information and warnings about the goods in the storage, using cheap, affordable devices. Furthermore, the system can act as an advisor about replenishing supplies by learning the consumption habits and priorities of its users.
