PakSense of Boise, Idaho tests packing tag. Labels note temperatures every 5 minutes
Ever wonder how those strawberries you’re about to buy got to the store? Or more importantly, what happened to the fruit during shipment?
PakSense http://www.paksense.com/ , a local technology firm, has developed a way for those in the food business to monitor their produce, meat and other products in transit with Smart Labels, electronic sensors stuffed into an adhesive label about the size of a sugar packet.
The labels, which can stick to a cardboard box or crate, track the temperature every five minutes for up to four weeks and then transfer that information to a computer.
