1. An article delivery system comprising:
a first unmanned vehicle configured to load one or more alternative articles for an article designated as a delivery target for a delivery destination, the article being determined undeliverable after the article is designated; and
at least one memory configured to store program code; and at least one processor configured to access the program code and operate as instructed by the program code, the program code including:
vehicle selection code configured to cause the at least one processor to select the first unmanned vehicle from among a plurality of unmanned vehicles based on loading status information comprising at least one of:
one or more article IDs corresponding to one or more articles loaded onto the first unmanned vehicle;
size information corresponding to one or more first sizes of the one or more articles loaded onto the first unmanned vehicle; or
availability information indicating a number of articles available to be loaded onto the first unmanned vehicle;
stock confirmation code configured to cause the at least one processor to receive, from a terminal, a stock confirmation result corresponding to one from among a first value and a second value, wherein the article is determined undeliverable based on the stock confirmation result corresponding to the first value;
acquisition code configured to cause the at least one processor to acquire first alternative article selection information indicating an alternative article ID corresponding to a first alternative article, transmitted from a user of a user terminal, corresponding to the delivery destination, wherein the first alternative article is one from among the one or more alternative articles, and wherein the alternative article ID is transmitted after the first unmanned vehicle starts moving toward the delivery destination;
movement control code configured to cause the at least one processor to move the first unmanned vehicle toward the delivery destination based on radio waves transmitted to the first unmanned vehicle from a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) satellite; and
transfer control code configured to cause the at least one processor to perform control for transferring the first alternative article at the delivery destination,
wherein the transfer control code is configured to cause the at least one processor to:
acquire input data comprising:
a plurality of numbers and symbols, or
biometric data;
determine an authentication result based on the input data and authentication data associated with a delivery destination ID of the delivery destination; and
transmit unlocking information to the first unmanned vehicle to cause the first unmanned vehicle to, based on the authentication result, release a lock of a door of the first unmanned vehicle or cause an actuator to move a pin of the first unmanned vehicle from a closed state to an opened state.
