A low-power IoT framework: From sensors to the cloud

Abstract

With today's technology humanity is continuously approaching a time where a vast majority of our electronic devices will be interconnected, or networked, commonly known as the Internet of Things (IoT). This project proposes an IoT-based wireless sensor network with configurable nodes with multiple sensors, also known as transducers. The nodes can collect data from the surrounding environment, and present it on the cloud for universal accessibility by the users. With this system, users can easily access and analyze various data, such as temperature, humidity, motion detection, illuminance, CO gas, air quality, etc. and take necessary actions upon that information. The feasibility of proposed IoT transducer framework has been verified through real-time hardware implementation.
