📈 SmartSilo 🔌

SmartSilo is a research project from the TAPIOCA-LAB of Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte
that consists in a idea of software to remotely monitor and control the drying proccess of grains within storage silos.

Justification

In view of the low use or absence of technological tools in the country's grain sector and in view of the increase in Brazilian productivity in this field, this project aimed to develop a computer system with instruments and techniques related to automation and embedded systems to give the user the possibility to remotely monitor and control, through an interface with information and graphics, important variables of the grain storage process, such as temperature, mass and humidity inside a storage silo, in order to assist the producer to obtain an optimization on the durability of these products.
