Canada's food waste problem is significant, with an estimated annual cost of $58 billion attributed to avoidable waste.
A major contributor to this waste is spoilage, which frequently occurs without detection until it is too late to salvage the food.
The introduction of smart sensors could potentially play a crucial role in mitigating this issue by monitoring food conditions and reducing waste.
