Development of an Internet of Things system to monitor fermented food

Abstract

Although the demand for fermented food exists nowadays, its production is governed only by rules created from the experience of the manufacturer. As a result, inexperienced producers face multiple problems until these rules are learned, increasing their operational cost. Therefore, in this research, we aim to develop a support system that helps its users, by applying Internet of Things technology, to easily produce fermented food while maintaining its quality. In this paper, bran pickles are preferred as the fermented food, and we aim to build a system to monitor rice bran floors. Therefore, we try to identify a correlation between odor, pH, and temperature of the rice and taste of the pickles.
