The delivery of fresh and healthy quality agri-products, such as milk and meat, mandates the continuous monitoring of the environmental conditions under which these products are stored and transported. The TempSens project aims to experiment on the use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for a creation of temperature sensors which can be easily installed providing a low-cost and reliable monitoring solution. This FTTE will offer IoT architecture solution that will help agro-food and logistics companies to ensure the quality of the transported goods and to be complied with the EU regulations and International food standard ISO 22000.
TempSens Project targets CLEC throughout the minimisation of the energy consumption of the temperature monitoring sensors integrating the RFID technology, while it will increase cold chain monitoring efficiency during transportation. Also, one of the features of RFID is its ability to identify objects wirelessly without being in their line-of-sight. Using this technology for tracing or locating objects in the agriculture products supply chain increases its efficiency, quality and reduces the number of errors.
