Introduction:
Every industry has its own list of unique logistics challenges and issues can arrive
from a multitude of sources – product type, mode, receiver, market conditions, etc.
Working exclusively within the food, beverage, and consumer product sectors, the
transportation professionals at Zip line Logistics know the ins-and-outs of these
unique challenges. But what are some common food transportation issues most face.
Here are we saw the food transportation issues and try to help by using our project.
Our project aims to solve the problem in transportation of food and beverages due to
environmental changes in location while transporting the raw material. Many con-
sumer goods are subject to perishability or freeze ability and require temperature con-
trolled transportation. Demand for this equipment has increased dramatically with the
consumer preference for fresh and less processed products while the supply has seen
little improvement due to the higher cost of ownership and a more challenging regula-
tory environment. This means significantly tighter capacity and often higher prices
when compared to traditional truckload or dry van.
Our system uses temperature as well as humidity sensing of trucks trailer to keep
track of vegetables and fruits in their appropriate quality. The sensors are connected to
a microcontroller to track the status which is in turn interfaced to an LCD display as
well as Wi-Fi connection in order to transmit alerts. If system detects any abrupt
changes in trucks humidity or external temperature, the system automatically alerts
the user about the trailers’ status over IOT and also shows details of humidity and
temperature level of environment inside the truck live over the internet. Thus IOT
based food quality tracking system effectively uses internet to monitor the
environment and start the heater or fogger to increase or decrease the temperature or
humidity inside the trucks, to maintain the quality of food to be transport.
