Project Overview

The brief: design and implement a secure, reliable, and scalable Environmental Monitoring System (EMS) for use in the Informatics Forum. The EMS should utilise a heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). The team should identify the WSN requirements of the application (low-power utilisation). The team should identify the needs of the system's target user (providing salient environmental data in a clear and informative way).

Specification

The system will implement a secure, scalable heterogeneous wireless sensor network for environmental monitoring capable of providing feedback to a building automation system governed by a set of user-configurable rules. It will save historical sensor data and allow it to be queried and formatted into useful reports. It will allow local and remote access from authenticated clients.
