We will fit sensors in the transportation vehicle along with an embedded system with a webcam and sufficient computational resources to run a machine learning model.
The sensors will continuously record factors such as humidity and temperature and continuously push it to the blockchain after a particular interval of time. The machine learning model will keep a visual watch on the quality of yield throughout the journey and will be pushing photos to the blockchain. Also, an initial reading of the crop quality will be taken before loading it onto the vehicle.
This will ensure that neither the farmer nor the transporter can wash their hands off when it comes to taking responsibility for the bad quality of the crop when it reaches the destination.
Project Limitations
For every crop, the quality of the crop is determined differently so the tech stack has to be finely tuned to match that crop’s needs.
Project Future Scope
Can be used to judge driver performance.
Can be expanded to other perishable items such as volatile chemicals.
Will help set a standard and enforce it across all transportation companies.
Can be expanded to a transportation company of its own.
