For reliable control of the cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal systems of the human body must be continuously recorded electro-cardio signal for a long time. Detected and quickly transferred over the wireless channel the most informative pieces of daily electro-cardio signal will allow duty cardiologists for react and provide the necessary medical care to remote cardiac patients. The sequences...
The world's non-renewable energy resources are depleting whilst the atmospheric carbon concentration is increasing. In order to arrest this, it has become mandatory that energy conservation measures be implemented. The Wireless Residential Power Monitoring System is a user-friendly package which monitors energy consumption within households with 100–240 V AC levels and assists with demand side management...
Global warming is one of the most important issues of the last few decades. Among other gases with greenhouse effect, carbon dioxide has one of the largest contributions to global warming. To estimate its footprint upon the environment, usually it is measured in fixed stations, located near the industrial processes which are the source for this gas. The amount of carbon dioxide produced by natural...
This paper proposed a wireless, multi-parameter plant growth monitoring and control system for quality agriculture application. With the collection and analytics of one-week weather forecast information, the developed system can optimize the plant growth condition by adjusting major growth parameters including environmental temperature, humidity, soil water and illumination data and controlled actuators...
The paper deals with the problem of designing and implementing an inexpensive wide area sensors network for environmental radiological monitoring. To this aim, the measurement node takes advantage from a low-cost, Linux based, development platform, and some new open-source software tool, which are pushed towards a network-oriented vision of Internet of Things (IoT).
In this article we describe the implementation of remote monitoring and control for multiple and independent experiments, namely, ecosystem replication experiments. First by presenting the main concepts behind the system architecture, and ultimately its design, and secondly by discussing its implementation. The system makes use of IEEE 802.15.4 Standard for Wireless Communications, a BeagleBone Black...
The integration of wearable and integrated sensing technologies with cloud computing has the potential to promote the development of large-scale monitoring applications and to provide public safety as a service to end-users. In this paper, we proposed a system that relies on the integration of heterogeneous sensor networks and cloud computing to build distributed public safety databases and to provide...
This paper presents the architecture and implementation of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) to determine pollination readiness of oil palm flower in an palm oil plantation application. The architecture comprises of four main parts; sensor tip, mote, router and gateway. This paper describes how wireless sensors are used in a palm oil plantation to monitor the humidity, temperature and other parameters...
Concentration of Carbon monoxide (CO) and Carbon dioxide (CO2) that high in the air is very dangerous for human life. Carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas that damages the circulation of oxygen in the blood when inhaled, while carbon dioxide is one of the gases that cause global warming. Both gases are classified as colorless and odorless gas so that the necessary special tools to monitor their concentration...
In recent years, an increasing number of researchers have become involved in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and cloud computing. However, integrating WSN and cloud computing technology to monitor the environment is still an open issue. In this paper, we propose a mobile-device-based environmental monitor based on SaaS (Software as a Service) of cloud computing architecture. The proposed model is...
Mobile electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring systems have sprung up owing to the considerable interest attracted to wireless body area networks (WBAN). The long-term acquisition process for ECG produces large amount of data, which puts forward high demand on sensor lifetime. Fortunately, compressive sensing (CS) theory has been proved useful in energy saving by compressing signal in certain degree and...
Nowadays, in case of an emergency, and because of the more complicated interiors of buildings, people may not be able to easily find a safe escape route within limited time. An immediately available evacuation guide can improve safety in public buildings. In this research paper, we propose an intelligent guidance system that is a combination of image recognition and Digital Signage for conducting...
Asset tracking systems developed around the Internet of Things paradigm are composed of a collection of various objects interconnected by different communication technologies. Each of these devices function through local and/or remote interaction with the real world or other devices and systems. The problem of ensuring a dependable and responsive middleware that is capable of handling and servicing...
In this paper, we present Real-Time Flash-Flood Monitoring, Alerting and Forecasting System using Data mining and wireless sensor Network. Our System not only Measures River Water level and Different weather conditions such as temperature, humidity and vibration through wireless sensor nodes but also we can forecast possibility of future disasters by using Data mining algorithm on our database.
An advanced patient-centric bedside monitoring system design based on wireless body area sensor networks and telemedicine technologies is proposed in this paper where each patient uses sensors with wireless transmission capabilities and transmit the physiological signals within a larger advanced network, which is connected to a secured section of the public network. This work intends to reduce the...
The use of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has been widely used in many fields, especially for environmental monitoring. This present study attempts to apply the WSN technology into the retail industry or the modern market. Utilizing barcode scanning technology as a medium of sensors that are commonly used, combined with a microcontroller and XBee modules as data transmission module. This study adds...
City-scale IoT, a fundamental infrastructure for smart cities, requries to sense a range of ubiquitous entities in a city including humans, objects, and spaces. Ubiquitous sensor networks (USN) is the key technology to this. However, failures of a USN may result in hazards in our daily lives in smart cities. Monitoring of USN, rapid detection of faults and failures, and recovery from them are thus...
This paper presents a new framework that enables the remote monitoring of solid waste bin in real time, via ZigBee-PRO and GPRS, to assist the solid waste management process. The system is designed to monitor the status of the bin as soon as someone throw waste insight it. The system framework is based on a wireless sensor network, contains three levels: smart bin, gateway and control station that...
Along with the improvement of sanitary conditions and changes of life style, people begin to pay attention to the modern concept of health promotion and preventive medicine. Therefore, we built an intelligent environment monitoring feedback system to collect data of physical conditions of employees and air conditions of the working environment, displayed the collected data with a real time interface,...
New born infant kidnapping is a prevailing and horrific crime in governmental run hospitals in major cities and towns around Pakistan. In order to tackle this problem a novel idea of using Wireless Sensors Network (WSN) supported by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is proposed. The working model recommends a Trigger (passive PIRs) based video motes sensors installed at various concealed...
