Description
Summary:Among a wide offer of technologies, Zigbee is one of the most attractive for connecting with sensor. The application of ZigBee is being carried on at tissue culture laboratory, Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB). The goal of this project is to develop a prototype of Zigbee sensor network for temperature and humidity of tissue culture monitoring by database. Comparing the system which uses ZigBee technologies with cable or wired system, it is showed ZigBee technologies is better efficiencies of the cost and in the time installation and maintenance. ZigBee is a low-cost and low-power consumption in wireless mesh networking standard [1]. The low cost allows the technology to be applied in wireless control and monitoring applications, the low power-usage allows longer life with smaller batteries, and the mesh networking provides high reliability and larger range. ZigBee has been developed to meet the growing demand for capable wireless networking between low power devices. In industry ZigBee is being used for next generation automated manufacturing, with small transmitters in every device, allowing for communication between devices to a computer.
