MONITORING AND SUSTAINING THE INDUSTRIAL AURA BY ADOPTING WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS
ABSTRACT:
This project deals with the design and development of hardware and software for industrial data logger system. A data logger (also data logger or data recorder) is an electronic device that records data over time or in relation to location either with a built in instrument or sensor or by using external instruments and sensors. One of the primary advantages of using these data loggers is the ability to automatically and continuously collect data.
Present data logger systems need a PC to store the data as the data logger systems do not have sufficient memory and they takes much time to store the data as they are using low speed micro controllers. These systems are more costly, consumes more power and slow processing time. These problems can be achieved easily by using advancement in latest technologies.
Now a day’s so many advanced technologies are coming out especially in the field of electronics to make our life style more comfort, and secure to create smart systems with sophisticated functionalities. This project is designed with micro controller and high data storage capacity memory cards. The data which are recorded continuously in this project are Temperature,CO2 and Humidity, These analog quantities are taken and converted into corresponding digital values using ADC of micro controller. These converted digital values are sent to memory card and these values are stored in with time stamp in excel format for easy further processing. If any abnormal conditions GSM sent a alert SMS to user mobile.
The advantage of memory card is we can store more data, the storage range is in Giga Bytes and the read and write time is too fast and we can create files in suitable formats. The communication between SD card and our controller is established using SPI communication.
