1. Technology overview
T&D Corporation is a Japanese maker of data loggers based in Matsumoto City, in business since 1986, with distributors in over 60 countries. It addresses the need of warehouses, transport operators, food businesses, pharmacies and laboratories to record temperature and humidity continuously and receive alarms without manual readings.
The RTR500B series is a wireless logging system: remote loggers send readings by short-range radio, reaching a base unit at about 150 m in direct line, and base units forward the data. The RTR500BW uploads over wired or wireless LAN, the RTR500BC connects to a PC by USB and the RTR500BM uses 4G to send data from up to 20 loggers where no PC or LAN is available, such as transport. Data goes to the free T&D WebStorage Service, which shows readings and graphs on PC, smartphone or tablet, sends e-mail or SMS warnings and offers an API. Loggers are configured by Bluetooth through a smartphone app.

5. Market trends & opportunities
Food safety rules and good storage and distribution practices for medicines push warehouses, pharmacies and clinics to replace manual temperature logs with wireless loggers and cloud alerts. In Vietnam, pharmacy chains, vaccination centers and cold storage operators are expanding quickly and need affordable, continuous records for inspections.
