Currently, supermarkets limit the number of people inside the space, but there is a problem outside the commercial space, with the cluster of people waiting for their turn to be able to enter and purchase the goods they need.
The idea is to create an application that performs the virtual queue management in which people can schedule their place in the queue before leaving home. The application generates a number in the virtual queue and will indicate to the user what time is most likely for him to enter the supermarket. In addition to the information in the application, the user receives an SMS indicating the place in the queue and the estimated time of entry. The information is updated with time intervals to be defined (5m, 10m, 15m, etc.). It will be necessary that each of the participating stores use the application and agree to create a specific virtual queue for the users of this application.
The application can be applied to othet type of stores than supermarkets. Stores that use the application will be helping to reduce the risk of contagion, as there are clusters of people outside the commercial space.
