Abstract

The environmental pollution is a serious problem, which is caused due to the leakage of toxic gasses at the time of transportation, storage, and during industrial processes of these gases. In industry, different types of hazardous gases are processed, stored, and transported through pipeline. The leakage of such pipeline occurs at any catastrophic accident, which may cause danger to the society as well as the environment. The gas pipeline may spread wide within the industry. Considering such facts, it is proposed to develop Wireless Sensor Network to detect, monitor, and control the leakage of gases. The Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a challenging technology in the field of Industrial sectors. Recently, it is used to monitor agricultural, industrial, environmental, and medical parameters. WSN is the network of systematically distributed sensor nodes to collaboratively collect information from physical world. The present research work is carried out to detect, monitor, and control the hazardous gas Hydrogen Sulfide in industrial transportation system, to avoid catastrophic accidents as well as to reduce the effect on environment. For this purpose, sensor nodes are wired about advanced PIC 18F4550 microcontroller along with sensing and signal conditioning capabilities. The IEEE 802.15.4 slandered based ZigBee device is deployed for wireless communication. On the other hand, the control action is carried out through Coordinator Node, which is capable with electromechanical action to close the main valve of the gas source.

Abstract

The success of any product depends on a lot of factors, such as selection of right SoC (System on Chip), communication module, memory, size, and weight to name a few. With a lot of SoC manufactures coming up with plethora of development boards and IDEs (Integrated Development Environment), it is very important to select the right SoC for any product development in the field of embedded, mobile, or Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Thus, this paper presents ® ® a case study of Intel SoCs for IoT framework- Intel Galileo and Intel Edison. Further architectural and IDE exploration on Intel Edison is performed using variety of tools and techniques. Incorporation of the Intel software tools into the college curriculum is presented to demonstrate amalgamation of industry and academics.

Abstract

Agriculture is the backbone for the development of any country. Yet still in this technology driven era the majority farmers are using traditional farming approaches which was completely dependent on manpower. By implementing automation in the farming will reduce the manpower requirement and also the need for continuous monitoring. This research proposes an Internet of Things (IOT) based agriculture monitoring framework that uses sensor acquainted raspberry Pi based embedded system that monitors and automates the basic tasks like watering, lighting in greenhouse farming and keeps the farmers updated on any critical issues. It also sends data that is related to water level, temperature, humidity, light etc. to a centralised server as well as the farmers continuously. Mining such data from multiple fields will be beneficial for further analysis in the field of agriculture. This IoT based Smart Agriculture Monitoring (I-SAM) system collects images from fields and uploads to a central server, that automatically detects & classifies pests in the images using machine learning algorithms. This will also help the farmer to share such data with experts to get suggestions that eliminates the inexperienced use of pesticides. This precision farming yields better productivity, and also it will conserves and protects natural resources. Use of IOT in agriculture will bring all the data in the blink of an eye. This system is more potent than the traditional agriculture approach.

Abstract

In this new-fangled era social acceptance outcome is the main achievement of an industry. Purchasing is one of the main activities in everyone’s life. During discount and special seasons there would be a large rush in the malls. So vast amount of time is being wasted by the purchaser. In this project a Self moving Caster is being used which is being implemented with the help of RFID reader, RFID tag, IR sensor, Wi-Fi ,Bluetooth, LCD display, Alarm, GSM. Each product is being read by the RFID reader. The product details like cost, ingredients will be displayed in the LCD display. In early days purchaser have to push the caster. But in this project Bluetooth is being used so that the purchasers no need to pull the caster but the caster will follow the purchaser. If the purchaser moves away from the caster an alarm sound will be heard. By using GSM a purchaser can get the bill in mobile itself. With the Wi-Fi technology the bill is automatically transferred from caster to the billing section computer. So by this advancement in technology a new generation people will enjoy purchasing the product and will be comfortable.

Abstract

Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) nowadays become more popular for serial communication over a computer or any other peripherals. UART is based on the serial communication protocol used for very short distance communication. It works on full duplex transmitter and receiver mode. UART is specially designed for the interfacing between RS232 line and Microcontroller so that any serial communicating device can easily connect with the other peripherals. It allows the exchange of the data between the processor and peripherals. The serial communications are assumed to have more reliable data transmission than the parallel communication. The parallel devices require more hardware due to which the circuitry becomes more complex as compared to the serial communication device. In this paper, verilog based UART has been proposed to design.

Abstract

This paper mainly concentrates on providing security to vehicles from thefts on the digital indication of fuel in vehicle tanks. The digital indication of the exact quantity of fuel available in the tank will be displayed using an ultrasonic sensor. It is an alternative to the contact type for the measurement of the fuel inside the tank and therefore it is a non-contact type. This sensor is interfaced with the microcontroller. With this ultrasonic sensor, the volume of fuel filled in the filling stations can also be measured. This Digital Indicating system displays the quantity of fuel and cost via Short Message Service (SMS), and with the help of Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking system which is interfaced with microcontroller, one can know the exact location of the vehicle also.
