Environment Monitoring Mesh System (EM2S)

摘要

Breathing quality indoor air is critical for good health. Especially, construction workers are exposed to an extremely harsh environmental condition in terms of air-quality and noise. However, a few countries implement guideline for air quality for construction/renovation sites to monitor the sites environmental situation. Moreover, it is not easy to find a multi-function smart sensor in the current sensor market that is able to monitor both the air quality and noise level simultaneously. To alleviate this problem, the Environmental Mesh Monitoring System (EM^{2 S) has been proposed. The EM2 S is a prototype system designed to measure and monitor different air qualities within an indoor construction or renovation site. It comprises of different subsystems that works together to provide a compact, energy-efficient and web based user interface monitoring system. The implementation detail reveals integration of multidisciplinary aspects such as housing of sensors, integration of sensors, and communication between sensors via mesh network. Future work and challenges are opened as final discussion.}
