Smart Villages Network

The solution represents remote control of the situation in remote beehives. It consists of an automated measurement system - an IoT-supported hive scale for monitoring honey production, temperature, and relative humidity. The scale also has a GSM modem for data transfer to the mobile phone of the user. Furthermore, the solution includes a refractometer for measuring water content in honey and a conductometer for measuring the electrical conductivity of honey. The technology helps the beekeeper to save time and the cost of transportation, and thus reduces CO2 emissions.
