This X-bee based automatic temperature monitoring system is the “Future of Home Automation”
Image: X-bee gas leakage and temperature monitoring Introduction This home automation and safety kit is based on a technology which is gaining popularity around the world after the introduction of iOT devices and smart networks. This kit, X-Bee based temperature monitoring wireless system, effectively automates your temperature monitoring activities. It’s a typical system comprising of hardware, software and a personal computer or server. X-bee is an electronic module which wirelessly transmits and receives data using radio waves. In this kit, we have used a temperature probe which constantly monitors the temperature of its nearby environment. The temperature reading is encoded by the X-bee transmitter and sends it to X-bee receiver which then decodes the data. The receiver is connected to a network server or computer which reads the decoded data through a USB input. Depending on the value of temperature reading, the computer is programmed to take necessary actions.
