MUS-Tracker: An IoT Based System in Controlling and Monitoring of Beehives

Abstract

The problem of colony is theft becoming more serious and is not only happening in the east coast, but has also been reported in other farms. In the past, theft only applied to logs/sticks. But lately, this has been the case with the colonies in the hive box. As demand for such goods is high and resold at high prices, it is not surprising that these cases of theft have become more severe lately. To counteract this bad activity, a new idea and method was introduced with the use of specially designed IoT technology known as Mus-Tracker. This Beehives design comes with one GPS/GSM module slot. Beehives being stolen or taken or relocated will allow it to be tracked by the owner by simply sending a message to the GPS/GSM tracker module. Once the location has been identified, the tracking process will be able to perform it quickly and easily detect the beehives. Hopefully with this new system, it will solve the problem of theft based on the new method even though the cost is relatively high at first.

“…The paper demonstrates tremendous potential IOT, especially for bathroom safety for the elderly. A smart controlling and monitoring of beehives is done in [7] using the Arduino Uno ESP8266 microcontroller board with a humidity and temperature sensor in a beehives colony.…”

Improved Group-Based Signaling Scheme for Mobile Nodes in the Internet of Things Networks

“…Designing a protocol for connecting the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) with the IP networks is become a necessity due to the emergence of the Internet of Thing (IoT) and the machine self-communication without any user involvement. WSNs are used to gather the information and transmit it to a central processing unit for further processing [1][2][3]. To make the WSNs accessible through the Internet, IPv6 and 6LoWPAN have been introduced into WSNs for the purpose of locating and connecting them to the network.…”
