The main objective of this thesis was to study IoT devices, using Particle photon and different kinds of sensors. The thesis explains the working principle of sensors and the physics behind them with their applications and how these sensors can help to build different types of IoT devices. A system was built using particle photon and sensors which can be used in different applications.
This project has an IoT device called photon which is used as a microcontroller. The photon board is powered by a Cypress Wi-Fi chip alongside a powerful STM32 ARM Cortex M3 microcontroller (STM32F205RGY6 120 MHz). The Wii-Fi module of this device is a Broad-com BCM43362 Wi-Fi chip with 802.11 b/g/n. It also consists of 1MB flash alongside 128KB RAM. For power supply, it consists of an onboard USB micro B connecter and VIN pin.
Different kinds of sensors are fundamental elements to build IoT devices. Ultrasonic sensor, Humidity and temperature sensor, Buzzer, Camera, and OLED display were used in this project.
The ultrasonic sensor is used to measure the proximity of the object using ultrasound, whereas the humidity and temperature sensor measures the humidity and temperature which is displayed in the OLED display. A buzzer is used to notify the changes and with the help of the camera, the live view of the surroundings can be seen. Also using an IFTTT platform, notification is sent to the user’s phone if any changes occur. The accumulated data can be analyzed from anywhere using the ThingSpeak platform.
As a result, smart was system built in this project. The system can be used in different applications like Parking Assistance, Anti-Theft Alarm, Automatic Water Leveling, and Monitoring System analyze the live data and control the devices wirelessly, and many more.
