Diseño e implementación de un prototipo de monitoreo de geo posición y temperatura corporal para ganado vacuno mediante dispositivos de comunicación Lora.

Abstract

In this project, a prototype was developed to support the livestock sector. The prototype consists of a remote device that is placed on the neck of the animal through a collar, this is responsible for acquiring geo-position and temperature data, through a GPS chip and an infrared temperature sensor, the information is sent to a second device through LoRa, this second device receives the information from the collar and through TCP/IP protocols allows displaying it in a user interface on any device with a web browser that is within the same local area network. In order to fulfill the objectives of this work, research about commercial systems used in livestock monitoring was carried out to establish the characteristics that the prototype should have. In the first chapter there is information about the importance of monitoring geo position and temperature in livestock, as well as information about LoRa and the electronic elements used for this degree work. In the second chapter, the hardware and software design of the prototype is presented. Finally, the third chapter presents the results obtained after field tests.
