Why Wireless Sensor Networks? (Part 2)
24/7 remote monitoring with instant notification to our palm of a hand.
Sensor motes are already IoT by default. With a plug and play features shown motes in a network capable enhancing human life through real-time event monitoring, at any-time, at any-place.
Recent tragedy of a record-breaking 8.4 hectares bush-fires (an area larger than Scotland) occurs in many districts in Australia has destroyed thousands of homes and life, and endangered many forest wildlife for existence. This climate crisis however, can be stopped or even prevented with the use of technology such as WSN.
Wireless sensor networks is part of the recent compelling IoT technology. Motes consists in WSN structure are said to be smart in such a way that they have capabilities to provide real-time monitoring to life-beings and things around, without time and place restriction. One such example can be seen in weather monitoring application where a group of motes cohesively gather temperature and humidity data in an area with high risk of disaster that threatening human life. An extreme temperature rising or temperature drop could spark fire or deep freeze which lead to unintentional disaster. Recent tragedy of a record-breaking 8.4 hectares bush-fires (an area larger than Scotland) occurs in many districts of Australia had destroyed thousands of homes and life, and endangered many forest wildlife for existence. This climate crisis however, can be stopped or even prevented with the use of technology such as WSN. Motes of WSN could be deployed in the forest area with highly likely risk of fire to monitor temperature and humidity condition. A series of a steady increment of temperature detected in the area are instantly reported and alerted to the remote observer. Interestingly, in a WSN-IoT setup, the sensing data are channeled to a data store in network cloud, and are graphically viewed as continuous pattern to enable direct analysis on the data. This is just a small cost-effective setup but with a significant impact: prevent of fire event, or stop the spreading of forest burning after the very first fire has sparked.
