Abstract — Container Tracking IoT
billion devices, with projections suggesting this will exceed 25 billion by 2030 as adoption accelerates across sectors. This technological revolution stems from the convergence of several critical advancements: Figure 1: Conceptual Model & Experimental Workflow for Container Tracking Iot 2. System Architecture & Functional Block Diagram This solution demonstrates how IoT technologies can significantly improve supply chain visibility and product integrity during transportation, particularly for sensitive medical supplies and food products requiring strict environmental control.
Operational Methodology & Framework
The system architecture prioritizes reliability through redundant communications and failsafe mechanisms while maintaining cost-effectiveness through optimized hardware selection. This project presents a monitoring and tracking system designed to provide customers with real-time updates on the condition of their purchased goods during transportation. The system ensures continuous monitoring of environmental factors, regardless of the shipping method, until the item is successfully delivered. The proposed solution is cost-effective, efficient, and secure.
Experimental Findings & Validation
DHT11 Sensor (Temperature/Humidity): The DHT11 is an affordable digital temperature and humidity sensor that utilizes a capacitive humidity sensor and a thermistor to measure the surrounding air and produce a digital output signal on the data pin (no analogue input pins required). Despite its simplicity of use, data collection requires precise timing.
