Integration of Wireless sensor Network for data collection and sharing (IoT) The basic idea of the prototype is to implement the basic concept of Internet of Thing with a basic application specified as an example.In the prototype implemented, I adopted the concept of a smart home to be basic building block to impalement the idea.In general a smart home can include some kind of various types of sensors,which collects any type of data and connected to a coordinator as a gateway to be in turn connected to the Internet.In the implementation I used the temperature ,and humidity sensing as an example of the data collected,these data according to the previous sections taking about the Wireless sensor networks (WSN), are goatherd via a coordinator unit to share it somewhere on the Internet, either a private hosting or a Cloud service.
Inte block diagram the layers of the project, only using Wifi instead of Xbee
To complete the project you will need :
- Wi-Fi module ESP8266-01 (Or any type of wifi modules you prefere)
- 1* DHT11 Temperature humidity sensor
- 1* PDU (Power Distribution Unit)
- Different sizes of pin headers wires
- USB-to-TTL
Thingspeak Application is acctulay very user-friendly , and the results can be something like this
Using web thingspeak will show results also like this
