Waiting in long queues at hospitals, government offices, banks, and even cafeterias is a frustrating everyday problem. People often lose valuable time standing in line, which creates stress and reduces productivity. This is especially challenging for senior citizens, working professionals, and students who cannot afford to waste hours waiting. Current solutions like token machines or appointment apps either lack real-time updates or are not accessible to everyone, leaving a big gap in the market.
My idea is to create a Smart Queue Management System (SQMS)—a mobile and web-based platform that allows people to take a digital token remotely, track their real-time position in the queue, and receive notifications such as “Your turn is in 10 minutes.” The system will use basic AI to predict waiting times by analyzing queue flow and adjusting for delays.
Unlike existing apps, this solution will be lightweight, multilingual, and SMS-compatible so even people without smartphones can benefit. It can also integrate with simple digital displays at service points to ensure inclusivity.
Who benefits?
Users: Save time, plan schedules, and avoid unnecessary waiting.
Service Providers: Reduce crowd mismanagement, improve efficiency, and enhance customer satisfaction.
Community: Reduced overcrowding increases safety, comfort, and accessibility—especially important post-pandemic.
This problem matters to me because I have personally experienced hours wasted in hospital queues where elderly patients struggled to stand for long periods. A simple, accessible system like this could make daily life smoother and more respectful of people’s time.
Technical Details: The system will connect to a cloud-based server, support QR code check-ins, SMS alerts, and integrate with IoT displays for seamless operation.
