BuildingSense EcoGuard
Intelligent Remote Environment Monitoring
This is an end-of-training project for our students from October 2023 to February 2024 in Cameroon.
Just like our training and further education courses, this project is being developed in collaboration with the company NXATT.
Description
This project aims to automatically manage and monitor all air conditioning in a building.
Technically it consist of design and develop a software and hardware system that monitor air conditioning in a building. The system consists of a a micro-controller with Ethernet shield, temperature sensor, LEDs, resistance and some sensors. The Ethernet shield allows the embedded system to be connected to a computer network in order to allow data exchange with an API Server.
The API server hosted on the Mega-Ique Digital CLOUD is use to log the data, configure and set the parameters of each air conditioning. An intelligent logic with neuronal networkslogic is part of API server an help for prediction of the status, possible breakdowns and maintenance of air conditioning devices.
The dedicated mobile app allows the user to control the system remotely through API Server.
