During the pre-development stage, we designed the solution's architecture and business processes,

based on the Client's guidelines and according to the requirements of Retail Robotics' first client. Together with our partners, we also determined how the software would interconnect.

Throughout the software development stage, we focused on the device's physical aspects, real-time processes, security and integrity with the system.

The software that we created for Retail Robotics consists of three applications:

• A local backend application on the device that integrates with all peripheral devices installed in Arctan (refrigerators, freezers, scanners, interfaces), manages their operation and monitors the parameters of these devices to detect deviations in their operation. Thanks to this application, a single Arctan device connects to the central backend.
• The local backend is also connected to the second application that we developed. It is an intuitive device interface that supports all usage scenarios, such as receiving orders by end customers and handling loading and unloading by couriers. The application was developed using the React.js library.
• The third application is a central backend, which integrates the entire Arctan network of devices and connects them with the e-commerce and logistics systems of Retail Robotics’ clients. The application mediates between client systems and individual devices in the network by processing data from Arctan and managing order statuses – it notifies end customers and customer service. The application also monitors the condition of devices in the network in terms of their parameters and order accuracy.
