The present study aims to design a control and monitoring system for measuring variables in a pollen drying oven. To avoid bee pollen decomposition, an efficient drying process must be applied to improve its quality and its capacity to preserve nutritional properties. The oven is built by applying the V methodology (V-model) to develop the hardware and software systems and to ensure that critical control variables are met during realtime remote monitoring. The results show that the oven has an efficient and uniform heat distribution. It allows drying large bee pollen quantities while yielding a high quality product. In conclusion, it is feasible to technologically upgrade bee pollen drying processes and improve data architecture processes in the apiculture sector by including new technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence.
