Description
Summary:In industrial applications, the monitoring of machine condition or operation has been performed manually. This has cause a demanding in wireless system due to high cost in wired technology for monitoring purpose. The objectives of the project are to develop a monitoring machine using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) based on ZigBee Technology. This project system is started by developing a machine monitoring system which measures the temperature and voltages of the DC motor that acts as a machine and all the parameters are displayed through a Graphical User Interface (GUI). The GUI is designed using Visual Basic 6.0 software programming language. The hardware component consists of sensor circuit, DC motor machine and the ZigBee WSN module is developed to be integrated with the software component. The hardware implemented is based on WSN of ZigBee Technology. In order to evaluate the overall performance of the machine monitoring system, several measurements was carried out within the indoor and outdoor environment and the result is also discussed.
