Research Area: Internet of Things
Today, technologies allow people to access and monitor everything from everywhere. Thus interconnected things using networks like LoRaWAN, ZigBee and traditional Wi-Fi, are often described as the Internet of Things (IoT). This paper describes an Internet of Things sensors project. Combining sensors and actuators smart buildings, which can be offices or apartments, allow owners to save energy, increase security, give information to users on their environment and act directly on the building using the Internet. The paper presents the definition, development and outcomes of a project to use sensors in a typical apartment to monitor and conditions in the apartment using IoT technologies. The layout and placement of sensors is described, followed by a description of the sensors used, and of the wireless interfaces and cloud technologies used. The project outcomes, based on use of Bluemix with Node Red are presented.
