DEVELOPMENT OF AN IOT-BASED TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY MONITORING SYSTEM FOR TIGER NUT MILK POWDER PRODUCTION

Tiger nut milk powder production requires real-time temperature and humidity controlas a critical measure to ensure good product quality. Therefore, it is imperative to develop an IoT-based temperature/humidity monitoring system utilizing Arduino UNO, DHT11 sensor, ESP8266 Wi-Fi module, and the ThingSpeak cloud platform. The system continuously tracks ambient temperature and relative humidity within the production environment, providing data updates on a web interface. The project aimed to create a cost-effective, scalable solution that enhances environmental monitoring for small and medium-scale agro-processors. Results showed thesystem’s ability to effectively capture and transmit data at regular intervals, aiding in precise control of drying and processing conditions. This ensures highquality production of tiger nut milk powder, with extended shelve life.
