Sensor based warehouse monitoring and control

Even today millions of people die every year due to starvation globally. On the other hand several tonnes of food crops are wasted, as there are no effective and cost efficient systems practically implemented for monitoring and control of the warehouse. Our work takes into consideration this problem which affects millions of people globally and has tried to bring out a simple solution by building a sensor based module which monitors and also controls the warehousing system. This module acquires inputs from sensors. These inputs provide an understanding about the environment within the warehouse by considering parameters like humidity, temperature, gases present inside the warehouse and motion detection. These inputs are processed using an algorithm which will determine whether the conditions in the ware house are optimum, and are also transmitted to a remote terminal for monitoring. This system will work effectively to curb food crop wastage thereby saving precious lives.
