Description

User terminal device for parcel delivery and method of controlling the same The present disclosure relates to a user terminal device for parcel delivery and a method for controlling the same. Since the outbreak of infectious diseases such as the coronavirus, the number of people ordering and receiving goods online has increased. Consequently, the volume of parcel deliveries has grown significantly. However, as the number of delivery drivers is limited, attempting to deliver every item directly to the doorstep can lead to delivery delays. In addition, in multi-family areas (e.g., large housing complexes, apartment complexes, etc.), access by outsiders is restricted due to security concerns, which presents a problem in that it is difficult for delivery drivers to easily enter the multi-family areas. Furthermore, since the outbreak of infectious diseases such as the coronavirus, common spaces within these areas, such as community centers, have not been used, only increasing the burden of maintenance costs. Therefore, the need for a goods transportation management method to solve the various problems mentioned above has emerged.
