Abstract

The inclusion of IoT technologies in smart cities and the industrial domain has drastically influenced the life cycle of processes. The gradual reduction in sensor costs and the ubiquitous connectivity provided by open source, un/licensed networks have sky-rocketed the digital transformation of businesses. Specifically, the distribution of products with a short life cycle, such as dairy products, is a highly important domain that demands consistent monitoring of the product and the surrounding environment to preserve quality and safeguard the consumers’ health. Continuous monitoring of vehicle fleets is necessary to safeguard temperature and humidity conditions during delivery from the factory and the distribution center to the retail stores. Due to unpredictable situations that may arise during this process, the conditions of the dairy products are constantly monitored with internal sensors, and GPS location devices mounted on delivery trucks. Additionally, sensors have been placed on dairy crates, thus producing detailed information for prohibiting the quality deterioration of dairy products. An IoT monitoring system has been developed that includes a sensor kit placed on dairy crates to monitor dairy product conditions. Furthermore, a versatile module mounted on each truck is also designed and used to retrieve and broadcast the product’s conditions during delivery utilizing Bluetooth Low Energy as the medium for connectivity.
