Description:The invention is illustrated with the help of the accompanying drawing
fig 1 and 2 With reference to fig.1, the present invention illustrates that Beehive Honey Tracker with Monitoring System. According to one embodiment of the present invention , as shown in figure 1, in the initial phase, we will deploy IoT sensors within each bee hive box across the large agricultural area. These sensors will include load cells(100) for weight measurement, temperature and humidity sensors(200) for environmental monitoring, and connectivity modules for data transmission. According to another embodiment of the present invention , as shown in figure 1, the deployed sensors will continuously collect data related to hive weight(100), bee count(500), temperature(200), humidity(200), and other relevant parameters. This data will be transmitted to a central data hub via wireless communication protocols, such as Wi-Fi or LoRa, ensuring real-time data accessibility. According to another embodiment of the present invention , as shown in figure 1, at the central data hub, collected information will undergo thorough processing. Weight data will be calibrated and adjusted for factors like hive material variations and environmental conditions. This step ensures accurate and reliable measurements. According to another mbodiment of the present invention , as shown in figure 1, processed data will then be sent to a cloud-based platform(600), where it can be stored, analyzed, and accessed remotely by beekeepers and farmers
through a secure web interface or mobile application. According to another embodiment of the present invention , as shown
in figure 1, the system will provide user-friendly dashboards and graphs for visualizing the collected data. According to another embodiment of the present invention , as shown in figure 1, beekeepers can monitor the hive weights over time and receive alerts for abnormal hive conditions, enabling them to take timely action. According to another embodiment of the present invention , as shown in figure 1, to enhance the system's capabilities, machine learning algorithms is employed to predict honey yields based on historical data, weather conditions, and other relevant factors. This predictive analysis can help optimize hive management. , C , Claims:1. A beehive honey tracker with monitoring system comprising:
