Cold-chain temperature guardian for perishable produce

AGR-05 · Original hackathon problem statement from Arventiq Labs

The problem

Fruit and vegetables lose value when temperature slips during transport, yet most small transporters have no record of what happened in transit.

What to build

Build a pocket sensor and companion app that logs temperature and humidity, alerts the driver on a breach and produces a tamper-evident trip report for the buyer.

Success looks like

Alerts delivered within one minute of a breach, a trip report that detects edited readings, and battery life covering a three-day journey.

Suggested technologies

  • BLE sensors
  • Edge logging
  • Hash-chained logs
  • Push notifications
  • PDF reports
