Thermoelectric based storage system designed to maintain precise temperature control for sensitive goods such as vaccines and food. The core problem it addresses is the inadequacy of current temperature control systems, which are often bulky, inefficient, and lack portability, energy efficiency, precise regulation, and remote control capabilities. Existing solutions also struggle with scalability and adaptability, making them unsuitable for various industries and small-scale applications.

The project's objectives include developing a cost-effective and energy-efficient system. It utilizes sensors for accurate temperature feedback and a microcontroller for efficient operation. A key feature is remote control via a mobile app, allowing users to adjust and monitor temperatures from anywhere. The system's commercial potential is being evaluated for applications in healthcare, food storage (e.g., pizza, fruits, and vegetables), and transportation.

Technologically, the system employs a Peltier module for both cooling and heating, leveraging the thermoelectric effect. An Arduino microcontroller provides precise control and temperature adjustments. Temperature sensors continuously monitor real-time temperatures, feeding data to the controller for regulation. An LED display shows the current temperature, and a Switched-Mode Power Supply (SMPS) ensures stable and energy-efficient power. The prototype is compact, portable, and integrates these components for efficient operation. Ultimately, this system offers a scalable, energy-efficient solution with significant market potential for various temperature-sensitive applications, presenting opportunities for commercialization and entrepreneurial ventures.
