An Application Module of IOT for Environment Protection

Abstract

Internet of Things is the connection of physical objects which are embedded with sensors and software for exchanging data with other devices over the internet. It is a collaboration of multiple technologies, such as machine learning, real time analytics, and embedded system. IOT has helped in dealing with various real world problems. One such application area is in the field of environment protection. Due to the enhanced levels of particles and toxic materials in the environment it has become essential to monitor the levels on continuous basis so that required notifications can be generated. The purpose of this paper is to develop an IOT module which can sense the amount of toxic particles in air using the MQ135 sensor which can be later displayed on Thingspeak server. However, when the toxicity in the air crosses the threshold value it will give the notification on twitter. This module can be installed anywhere and when pollution crosses the safe point some external devices can be triggered and send a notification using a WiFi module.
