A Cloud-based Grocery Tracker Management System using Radio Frequency Identification

Plastic packaging has become the most common type of packaging. Information regarding the commodity is labelled at the back of the package. Critical information, such as the grocery’s manufacturing expiry date, gets lost as the packaging and the contents are transferred to a container. Consumption of items after expiration may lead to health concerns such as food poisoning, diarrhoea, and indigestion. The research paper proposes an independently functioning tracker and management system that assists in tracking the expiration date of a commodity by calculating the number of days left for the grocery to expire, estimates the remaining quantity left in the container, alerts the stakeholders when the grocery is close to expiry, and holds a repository of information regarding the groceries.
