Sensor Design for Building Environment Monitoring System based on Blynk

Abstract

A green building is a building wherein planning, construction, operation until the maintenance reduces the negative impacts, such as efficient use of energy, water, and other resources, maintaining the excellent quality of the building, and considering the quality of life of occupants. Good environmental damage in the building will affect the health, comfort and, safety of the occupants' lives. Therefore, it takes green buildings concept for buildings where people do activities in a home, an office, a school, a hospital, or a community center. To implement the green building concept, the building needs a monitoring system to monitor the quality of its environment. This research aim is to design sensor systems to monitor the building environment. The parameters monitored are temperature, humidity, illuminance, and noise intensity. The sensor system needs to the integrated with microcontroller and Blynk applications. The sensor system obtains the environment parameter. The accuracy rating for the temperature sensor is 94.41%, the humidity sensor is 93.53%, the light sensor is 91.26%, and the sound sensor is 97.13%. Blynk's warning system can make it easier for users to monitor the environment of a building.

Design of an IoT-Based Automatic Switching System Using Blynk Software

“…Blynk Application on Smartphone: The Blynk application is installed on a smartphone and serves as the user interface for controlling and scheduling the automated system. Users can set schedules, manually control devices, and monitor the status of the system through this user-friendly mobile app [5], [14], [15].…”

Ultraviolet-C lamp control system designed to estimate deactivation of the coronavirus disease

“…They use NodeMCU ESP8266 as a microcontroller so the system worked based on the IoT [19]. Then, the Blynk application is proven to be used to control lights remotely in the internet connection [20] and the application also can be used for monitoring systems [21]. In another study, a room disinfection device based on UV-C radiation was presented using a program remotely using an Android mobile device.…”
