Wireless Sensor Network For Monitoring Environmental Factors In Industrial Installations

This paper proposes a wireless sensor network for measuring environmental factors on industry surroundings. Industrial envi-ronment is regulated in varying degrees across the world by many environmental and safety policies. The adherence of these policies makes necessary a continuous and distributed measurement of different factors like temperature, noise levels and the presence of contaminants. The analysis of this data may help prevent violations in work conditions and nvironmental damage. Low worker productivity and mood disorders are also often related to bad work environments and may be mitigated by analysis of the environment. The proposal of a low cost, easy interface and customizable wireless sensor network to be use in industrial environment will help improve work conditions.
