After three years of development,our Site Monitoring System(SiMoS) has been granted an Australian Patent.The system consists of a microcontroller with attached environmental sensors.The type of sensor can be varied to suit the applicator's requirements but typically includes monitoring of temperature,relative humidity,dewpoint and,via a micro infrared thermometer,surface temperature.The microcontroller monitors the selected environmental parameters,and sends the collected data to a cloud based dashboard via a cellular connection.The applicator is then able to determine whether sufficient drying and/or curing of the applied coatings has been achieved.For larger areas,multiple sensor units can be deployed via a mesh network,each reporting back to a central control node that transmits the data to the cloud dashboard.
