Use of NFC technology in temperature monitoring - Android application in traceability system

摘要

The cold chain is of paramount importance, both in the pharmaceutical and food industries, as well as in other activities. Having good quality information we can separate healthy from faulty goods, which, in some cases, may be of life importance. The thesis describes a solution of a system to provide cold chain information, from concept to prototype. The solution includes two Android applications that are intended for use with data loggers in NFC (Near Field Communication) technology and enable setup of parameters, data recovery from loggers and storage of data on a remote server. Described are the problems of planning and programming of a project in a direction that allows integration into a larger traceability system as well as stand-alone operation used in temperature monitoring. Presented are the requirements which our solution must meet, followed by a description of the hardware and software that was used. The following describes the mobile applications, and finally testing of the entire system.
