IoT applications

Overview of the Internet of Things

          Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network that connects any item with the Internet for information exchange and communication through various information sensing devices, such as sensors, radio Frequency identification (RFID) technology, Global Positioning System (GPS), etc., according to the agreed protocol, and realizes intelligent identification, positioning, tracking, monitoring and management.

Main Applications

• Sensors and Devices

• Temperature and humidity sensor: monitor the storage environment of agricultural products.

• RFID tag: to realize the identification and tracking of agricultural products.

• GPS devices: track the location and trajectory of agricultural products during transportation.

• Data acquisition and transmission

• Environmental data such as temperature, humidity, and light are collected in real time through sensors.

• Wireless transmission technologies, such as Wi-Fi, LoRa, NB-IoT, are used to transmit data to the cloud.

• Environmental monitoring and management

• Real-time monitoring of crop growth environment, timely detection and treatment of abnormal conditions.

• Optimize the storage and transportation environment of agricultural products to ensure product quality.

• Practical Use Cases

• Intelligent farm management system: real-time monitoring of soil moisture, temperature and other environmental parameters through sensors, automatic adjustment of irrigation system, improve agricultural production efficiency.

• Cold chain logistics monitoring system: real-time monitoring of environmental parameters in cold chain logistics through temperature and humidity sensors to ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products in the transportation process.
