wireless Temperature Monitoring System

Postby ajaykumar » Tue Oct 04, 2011 12:52 pm

i m doing my first electronics project with following specs,i m quiet new to electronics as well, could you please help to guide necessary requirements.Thanks.

Project name: wireless Temperature Monitoring System

project Description:

In situation like underground tunnels,it's important that we are able to measure tunnel temperature and know what is happening inside ,some times accidents or breakdowns can happen because of overheating resulting in damage of system or items inside the tunnel..

A wireless Temprature Monitoring System is safe and avoid any fatal accidents ,there are various wireless systems using IR,RF,..etc. the measured temperature will be transmit to remote monitoring station at regular intervals for suitable action,it will also trigger warning by means of audio/visual indicators.the project requires research on selection of suitable sensors /associated electronics ( micro controller is preferred) and also type of wireless communications.
based of the research findings need to design & implement the system meeting project requirement

could you help to advice the better architecture for the above requirement .Thank you.

Regards,
Ajay.

If the project read temperature only, it's can done by using LM35.
For transmit data wirelessly, you can use XBee.

Ya! use a LM325 analog temperature sensor (*C) on http://www.cytron.com.my/viewProduct.php?pcode=SN-LM35DZ&name=Temperature%20Sensor%20(Celsius) to get the temperature and use XBee's to transmit data (on http://www.cytron.com.my/listProductGroup.php?pid=GgESKBsiKR8WOAILDTsLBwjeTukGmzJK898ZR1T3bF0=) You may need to use an Arduino Uno/Duemilanove to do some processing.

We actually have similar project done with XBee + Arduino + LM35.

You can take a look at project 12 and project 14 under Arduino Tutorial

Here is the video on the tutorial:
