1.3 Objective:
c) To design and develop a low cost wireless network based sensor system
that can monitor the IAQ parameters in real time and analyse the data to
identify if the parameters are within the safety limit.
d) To test and evaluate the system under various environmental factors and
to find the ideal mounting position of the system for optimal performance.
1.5 Conclusion:
The basic definition of IAQ monitoring system and the various different IAQ
parameters are discussed. The main objectives of the project along with the various
hardware requirements are understood. Multiple references from various online sources
are reviewed to thoroughly comprehend the project, project objectives and the scope of
the project.
