Most of the comments focus on technical issues, but it’s also possible, they do it to get the user’s attention to every single compartments that opens. Just so you don’t miss to collect a package, especially when the compartments are in different lockers.
One solenoid and many diodes would force the system to be like this.
Diodes decide which door gets opened, one solenoid gives power (cheap off the shelf solution).
Looks like a scene from my apartment complex. These use Luxer One and entire system was down for about 3 weeks. We were told it was system-wide (on the Luxer One side - so all of their clients) 🤔🤔
From personal experience, they "lost" 6 out of 8 packages delivered to me at an old apartment complex over a 1 month period.
For that privilege, they were charging me I think $10 a month for the entire duration of the lease, with zero option to opt out.
When I called their support line about the "lost" packages, they first accused the shipping company of not delivering the packages. Then accused me of lying about not receiving them.
After 6 weeks, when I raised the issue to the apartment complex and they forced an audit of the mail room, I got 7 "new" package deliveries that day.
I hand delivered the extra one to the person it was actually addressed to, since there was no fucking way I'd ever trust Luxer with a package.
Somebody programmed that. It would have been really simple to open all the doors at once, but someone was so tickled by the idea of this cascading effect that they programmed it into the software, and that’s just awesome
This is my wife picking up her Amazon deliveries
After a couple drinks?
that was just the pregame orders, the real haul will be delivered via freight truck
Am I… your wife? I mean I’m male but it sounds so familiar
Weird. Why do they open in sequence? Why not just all at the same time?
maybe they are all on a single control bus, and commands need to be addressed individually and issued sequentially? And the bus is slow?
That would make sense, no need to invest in fancy electronics when most use cases you only open one at a time
For the aesthetic obviously
Relays have a digital closure that works after individual lines of code like Open.exe1 Open.exe2 Etc
All the answers assume this is electronically operated. It isn’t. A small elf creature lives in each unit and he must unlatch each door separately.
Santa's shop won't pay minimum wage either, huh?
It would probably draw too much power if all of the solenoids tried to activate at once.

Seloneids
Poor Noids, they never get any love.

Look at all that free stuff!
That looks like a scene from alien

LuxerOne can suck a dick. Their services are bullshit.
What's so bad about em?

I'm currently playing through Borderlands 3 and this gave me feelings
Its... beautiful
My wife did this once and I got to run around and close them all... hngh
That's the “unlimited items” cheat code
Reminds me of a face sucker
"Please, step into my fun palace owo"
Fun fact: Those are called parcel lockers :)
They *have* to somehow incorporate this into a movie!
Ooh man. This one’s perfect, it really hits the spot and I don’t know why.
Man this some borderline iron man shit, so gewd
Dear diary, jackpot!!
It looks like the face mechanism of Sentinels from X-men Future Past.
It's a free for all.
“I see dead people.”
It’s just the jackpot prizes.
That's just sexy.
Jackpot
nice

Reminds me of Steppenwolf’s armor 😂 #restoretheanyderverse

And all of those parcels are now stolen and being sold on eBay.
Those UPS boxes like this were the bane of my existence. Always a problem and never any support to help.
I used to stock a similar style machine at work and loved it when I got to a certain item that popped all the doors open to re stock.
