Cold chains are susceptible to mechanical breakdowns, traffic delays, theft, human error, and numerous other factors. With IoT, issues can be handled in real time, with an entire infrastructure reacting as a single unit.
With IoT, cold cargo becomes ‘intelligent’ thanks to smart sensors and monitoring.Temperatures can be measured in exact degrees and correlated with acceptable norms for any given cargo, generating alerts for the driver and other stakeholders when there is an issue. And if cargo is stolen, recovery is rapid as it can be tracked to within inches of its location.
