A RASPBERRY-PI BASED IOT SYSTEM FOR MEASURING THE ENVIRONMENTAL PARAMETERS TO MONITOR THE POLLUTION LEVEL USING IBM BLUEMIX

Abstract

Environmental parameter monitoring using Internet of Things (IOT) provides a low cost and an effective system to monitor
the weather condition and to take relevant steps to overcome it. The Internet of Things (IOT) refers to virtually representing a
physical network. This work presents a functional design and implementation of a complete sensor system which can be used
for monitoring the environmental parameters. The system fulfills all the requirements like high number of sensors, fast
deployment, low maintenance, and high quality of service.
The system is based on acquiring data like carbon dioxide, temperature, humidity and carbon monoxide from various sensors
and monitoring the sensor value. The measured parameters are thus uploaded to the cloud so that the users can track the present
environmental condition and could identify the contribution of various elements towards it. A message is sent to the user
notifying about the air index. The whole process is carried out on Raspberry-Pi. So, in short this is an integrated system which
combines Internet of Things and Raspberry-Pi.
