Intelligent Grain Storage Management System for Horizontal Silos

We designed, fabricated and tested a sensor system for the management of grains stored in horizontal silos (also known as silobags), which mainly comprises some remote measurement units (at least two per silobag) that monitor both the state of grains and the integrity of the silobag at real time and that can be also configured as satellite gateways, thus allowing to remotely manage the grains stored in silobags. Measurement results performed during field tests in Argentina are reported.
