Abstract - This project aims at mitigating food insecurity and waste reduction by creating smart food stations where donors can leave excess food, and people in need can pick it up. To ensure equal access, the platform uses facial recognition software to restrict repeated pickups within three hours. An IoT system based on Raspberry Pi features an identity-verification camera module, weight sensors to monitor food levels, and a servo motor to control distribution. A web-based interface is also included for real-time feedback on food levels and hub positions, improving user convenience. By combining IoT and networking, the method promotes accountable food-sharing, maximizes the use of resources, and aids social welfare, which is consistent with international efforts to improve food security.
Key Words: Food Waste Reduction, Smart Food Hubs, Iot based systems, Web based Platform, Servo motors, Weight sensors.
