Smart Environment Monitor

Sensor monitoring environmental condition at home

About the Project

This project involved creating a smart apartment monitoring device to enhance indoor and outdoor safety and comfort. The device combined various sensors, including an air quality sensor, infrared sensor, microphone, and accelerometer, with the accelerometer and LEDs also serving as a user interface. Communication relied on a ZigBee.

The device provided live updates when detected excessive noise in a child’s room, the sound of breaking glass, indicating the detection of intruders, and when air quality became unhealthy. It could also distinguish between human movement and pets to reduce false alarms, ensuring a secure and responsive monitoring experience.
