Abstract:
—Information and communication technology provide
tremendous services to all the sectors including food technologies.
On the other hand, this world fighting against hunger, food wastes,
and nutrition-less food. There are much more technologies increase
not only the profitability but also quality and production rate.
IoT technologies use by the food technologies in many countries
for food safety, transportation, packaging, temperature monitoring,
nutrition analysis, and find the defective foods using IoT devices
and applications via smart phones and computers in real time. This
study mainly focused on IoT in food technologies in terms of the
food production, security issues and possible solutions for those
issues. For that, a systematic literature review was conducted and
analyzed using qualitative method. Findings confirmed that, IoT and
relevant technologies positively provide its full support to increase
the demand and quality of food production process. Meanwhile, data
privacy issues and provide immediate technical solutions were the
major security issues faced by those IoT devices and application.
In addition to that, none of the articles found conducted in Sri
Lanka related to this study and none of the studies found related
to IoT, Food technology Food-destroying robes. Apart from these
all, this study suggested developing IoT systems and applications
based on cloud computing to drive away from the food-destroying
robes. Finally, it is planning to conduct a statistical analysis to find
the expectations of food scientists, food production industrialists,
and farmers. This paper purely based on past research works from
famous Journals and conferences.
