Flood is a phenomenon by which the living and non-living entities that belong to the environment suffers various losses. Human beings cannot totally avoid floods but the only thing humans can do is, they can develop suitable systems to predict & subsequent measures to alert the people about its occurrence. There are many technologies available to predict and prevent. There are many natural disasters...
The current research trend is about intelligent devices. There is a need to interconnect these intelligent embedded devices using the Internet and hence IoT devices have become more essential. Web of Things and Wisdom Web of Things are two technologies in their growing stages. This paper is a study on integration of IoT devices with WoT and W2T. An architecture has been designed to implement the interaction...
To make the cities greener, safer, and more efficient, Internet of Things (IoT) can play an important role. Improvement in safety and quality of life can be achieved by connecting devices, vehicles and infrastructure all around in a city. Best technological solutions can be achieved in smart cities by making different stakeholders to work together [5][6][7]. System integrators, network operators and...
Mobile Crowdsensing is a promising paradigm for ubiquitous sensing, which explores the tremendous data collected by mobile smart devices with prominent spatial-temporal coverage. As a fundamental property of Mobile Crowdsensing Systems, temporally recruited mobile users can provide agile, fine-grained, and economical sensing labors, however their self-interest cannot guarantee the quality of the sensing...
The Sensorian Hub is a software platform designed and developed for using the Raspberry Pi Single Board Computer (SBC) as a sensor node, whether independently or in a larger network of sensors. The intention of the platform is to provide an easy to use and highly customizable system for collecting and processing sensor data in a variety of environments and applications. In this paper, the design and...
This demonstration is a proof of concept for the design of secure IoT frameworks using Secure Elements as trusted TLS/DTLS stack. It presents a connected plug built over a cheap Raspberry Pi board, whose data exchanges over TCP/IP are controlled by a javacard providing TLS server services. In a smart grid context it could be used by energy operators in order to authorize/monitor battery charging.
Many physical devices and sensors make it possible to obtain more localized data and applications which provide more localized information for users will appear. Generally, those applications use a storage server for computing location-dependent data. Traffic of Internet of Things (IoT) devices may cause concentration, when data is stored into a server. It is desirable that each location-dependent...
The paper presents the design and implementation of a low cost and open source assistive system exploiting a wearable device in order to support deaf-blind people in communication using the Malossi alphabet. More specifically, the system, that we called GlovePi, is composed by three main low cost components, such as: (i) a gardener glove; (ii) a Raspberry Pi; (iii) a MPR121 capacitive touch sensor...
Participatory sensing is an emerging paradigm in which citizens voluntarily use their mobile phones to capture and share sensed data from their surrounding environment in order to monitor and analyze some phenomena. Participating users can disrupt the system by contributing corrupted, fabricated, or erroneous data. Different reputation systems have been proposed to monitor participants' behavior and...
This paper explores the effectiveness of MOOS-IvP middleware for Unmanned Surface Vehicles(USV). As unmanned technology evolves, various functions are required to carry out some missions. Also, as the USVs have more sensors, the complexity of data sharing is increasing. A good solution to deal with this is middleware. The MOOS-IvP is a C++ based open source publish-subscribe middleware. It consists...
The base ways of remote monitoring was investigated for dynamic object, including human, in emergency situation (natural, anthropogenic or initiated by health problems). Input data was summarized for low cost sensors experiment. Central server was used for collecting, saving data and initial data processing. Possible ways of data processing were analyzed for rising information capability of imperfect...
This paper investigates one possible way to reduce the wastage of clean water used in a public toilet. The study focuses on saving clean water from the use of an automatic urinal flushing system in a toilet. The automatic urinal flushing is set with different water flushing duration parameter. This is to find the most satisfied parameter for users while spending clean water as less as possible. In...
Evaporimeter, a scientific device is used to measure the rate of water evaporation into the atmosphere from a wet surface. Using this instrument, we are able to calculate irrigation scheduling, crop selection to the different geographical area and future prediction of drought. Now a day's the compressive development of wireless sensor and Internet of things (IoT) can be embedded with manually operated...
The Internet of Things (IoT) technology, based on the wireless sensor network, is developing rapidly and permeating into agriculture including livestock farming. Our research focuses on the problem that current industrial IoT system for livestock farming is tightly coupled, hard to expand, and with poor network performance. In this paper we proposed an integrated framework of smart livestock farming...
Nowadays, the Internet of Things (IoT) is receiving more attention in commercial and academic research, especially about its security property. However, current protocols cannot satisfy the requirement of various IoT applications and introduce some problems. There are three typical problems: traditional public key infrastructure (PKI) apply in IoT will incur great overhead, wireless sensor network...
With the advancements in electronics and communication, the electronic devices are being interconnected to create a controlled environment. The number of devices that are being connected to the Internet is booming day-by-day. However, the existing protocols are verbose and overburden the embedded devices having constrained resources in terms of memory, computational power, battery etc. As a relief,...
Participatory sensing systems can gather and process personal data to produce some knowledge about the world. In this setting, sensing data quality has been the primary focus of widespread adoption of many systems. To encourage more participants to contribute high-quality data, many incentive mechanisms have been proposed to motivate them. Unfortunately, this brings about some other new issues. Firstly,...
The Internet of Things (IoT) in all its essentiality is a collection of sensors bridged together tightly. The present day development in the technology industry has thus elevated the emphasis of large amounts of data. IoT is expected to generate and collect an enormous amount of data from varied locations very quickly. The concerns for features like storage and performance factors are coercing the...
A pilot system for performing real-time brain imaging in naturalistic environments have been developed using wireless EEG headsets, motion sensors, smart telephones and ubiquitous computing servers. This paper described its pervasive architecture and introduced its enabling technologies, which include machine-to-machine publish/subscribe protocols, interoperable data/meta-data formats, multi-tier...
The current automobile industry aims at using wireless communication to enable intelligence for creating next generation automobiles. The industries are intending to build intelligent transport system a real-time communication system to transmit and receive instant information from a current vehicle and its surrounding. In this direction, the proposed work is to implement Zigbee, an IEEE 802.15.4...
