Team 41: Wayfinder IoT-Connected Keg Chime
Above: IoT enabled keg tracking device.
Kegs are lost and stolen every year causing financial losses to breweries of upwards of $32.6 million. The purpose of Wayfinder™ is to reduce loss and provide a system that allows brewers to improve logistics, save money and reduce environmental impact. By tracking the kegs, we help brewers and distributors see their assets in real-time. In addition, we provide data on the fill level of their keg, allowing for improved logistics for pickups and deliveries.
