Description
Summary:Environmental quality is a great concern to everyone, in order to realize the collection, upload, management, and visualization of parameters of atmospheric environment in real time. We propose a cheap, low-power, and fast deployment wireless sensor node for environmental monitoring, consisting of STM32 MCU, ESP8266, light sensor, rain sensor, UV sensor, seven-in-one sensor (including temperature, humidity, PM2.5, PM10, CO2, formaldehyde, and TVOC), and solar automatic tracking module. A customized μC/OS-III runs on the node, which controls the transmission of environment parameters collected by each sensor to the cloud server through the wireless network, and then the server receives, stores, and visualizes the data. In actual test, the node collects data once an hour, and the running power of the node is low and stable. Experimental results show that the node could achieve accurate collection and transmission and display the environmental data, and solar automatic tracking module could meet long-term running of the node in the night and continuous rainy days.
