Obsah:
- <p> Food safety and hygiene are among the key concerns in order to prevent the wastage of food. However, <br>for lack of technology and ignorance about the effects of humidity, temperature, exposure to light and alcohol <br>content on foods, food safety is not maintained well enough in Kenya. This has led to massive losses in many <br>food stores resulting from food decay. <br>Currently, majority of food stores and warehouses still rely on manual monitoring of the atmospheric factors <br>related to food quality. These conventional food inspection technologies are limited to weight, volume, color and <br>aspect inspection and as a result do not provide a lot of information needed on quality of food. The quality of the <br>food needs to be monitored and it must be prevented from rotting and decaying by the atmospheric factors like <br>temperature, humidity and dark. <br>This project is focused on such a food monitoring system which suggests systematic use of various sensors to <br>perform quality monitoring and control of food materials. More precisely, this system consists of gas, <br>temperature, light and humidity sensors, which provide the essential information needed for evaluating the quality <br>of the packed or stored product. This information is transmitted wirelessly to a computer system providing an <br>interface where the user can observe the evolution of the product quality over time using the Internet of Things <br>technology. Later, the environmental factors can be controlled like by refrigeration, vacuum storage and other <br>appropriate control measures. </p>
