Desarrollo de un sistema web y móvil para el monitoreo y control en tiempo real de colmenas utilizando tecnología IOT

Abstract

The fundamental purpose of this research project is to comprehensively address the challenges faced by beekeeping through the application of advanced technologies, such as sensors and monitoring devices. The essence of our proposal lies in the transformation of the traditional method of manual inspection of hives, which presents inherent limitations and risks. We aim to improve efficiency in the control and supervision of hives, highlighting the importance of this approach in the current context of beekeeping. The methodology adopted involves detailed research on sensors within the framework of the Internet of Things (IoT), with the execution of pilot tests specifically designed for beekeeping environments. We seek to obtain concrete results that include the development of highly effective monitoring devices, the significant reduction of risks for both beekeepers and bee colonies, and the promotion of more sustainable bee management in general. The development of the comprehensive system proved to be an effective and efficient tool for real-time supervision and control of hives. The implementation of IoT technologies significantly optimized beekeeping management, allowing greater precision and speed in decision-making, thus improving the productivity and sustainability of the hives. The comprehensive prototype of the system achieved an intuitive and functional web interface and mobile application, with the integration of IoT sensors that allowed the capture and transmission of data in real time. The evaluation of the system under the ISO/IEC 14598 standard confirmed that the system meets the required quality criteria, validating its reliability, functionality and usability. This approach highlights the importance of applied research in improving beekeeping practices, thus establishing a crucial link between technological innovation and socioeconomic progress in the beekeeping field. Ultimately, our project seeks to not only overcome the current challenges in beekeeping, but also lay the foundation for a more promising and sustainable future in this important industry.
