Pollution Monitoring System using Arduino and various gas sensorUtkarsh Jaiswal
Now-a-days air pollution is one of the most important concern of the world. Air pollution may evolve from anthropogenic or natural sources. Air pollutants of atmospheric substances like CO, CO2, SO2, NO2, and O3 suspended particulate matter (SPM), repairable suspended particulate matter (RSPM), and volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) have a great effect on the people health. Most of the major cities in developing countries and most cities of the developed countries are suffering from it. Thus to develop a real time air quality and pollution monitoring system is critical. We have developed an arduino based air pollution detector which combined a small-sized, minimum-cost sensor to an arduino micro-controller unit.

Intelligent pollution monitoring using wireless sensor networks eSAT Journals
Abstract
This paper provides an idea to deal with several pollution control measures existing in industries. The pollution likes air pollution due to release of toxic gases in the industry affects the entire human environment. Similarly, the motion of any living beings in any restricted area is identified through a PIR sensor. And, finally the water pollution by letting the improperly treated waste water into the river affects the entire eco system. Air pollution can affect many body organs and systems in addition to the environment. By the report of the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution is significant risk factor for multiple health conditions including skin and eye infections, irritation of the nose. The purity of water content released from the industry is checked through a pH meter the eel of purity of water should be beyond the standard specified by the pollution control board. This paper helps in neglecting those factors affecting the human environment through pollution.

Real Time Vehicle Monitoring Using Raspberry Pi Albin George
An advanced vehicle monitoring and tracking system based on Embedded Linux Board and android application is designed and implemented for monitoring the school vehicle from any location A to location B at real time. The proposed system would make good use of new technology that based on Embedded Linux board namely Raspberry Pi and Smartphone android application. The proposed system works on GPS/GPRS/GSM SIM900A Module which includes all the three things namely GPS GPRS GSM. The GPS current location of the vehicle; GPRS sends the tracking information to the server and the GSM is used for sending alert message to vehicle’s owner mobile. The proposed system would place inside the vehicle whose position is to be determined on the web page and monitored at real time. In the proposed system, there is comparison between the current vehicle path and already specified path into the file system of raspberry pi. Here in the proposed system the already specified path inside the raspberry pi’s file system taken from vehicle owner’s android smartphone using android application. Means the selection of path from location A to B takes place from vehicle owner’s android application which gives more safety and secures traveling to the traveler. Hence the driver drives the vehicle only on the vehicle owner’s specified path. If the driver drives the vehicle on the wrong path then the alert message will be sent from the proposed system to the vehicle’s owner mobile and also speakers alert driven using Raspberry pi’s audio jack. If the vehicle’s speed goes beyond the specified value of the speed, then also the warning message will be sent from system to the owner mobile. The proposed system also took care of the traveler’s safety by using LPG Gas leakage sensor MQ6 and temperature sensor DS18B20.

Currently, in both market and the academic communities have required applications based on image and video processing with several real-time constraints. On the other hand, detection of moving objects is a very important task in mobile robotics and surveillance applications. In order to achieve this, we are using a alternative means for real time motion detection systems. This paper proposes hardware architecture for motion detection based on the background subtraction algorithm, which is implemented on FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). For achieving this, the following steps are executed: (a) a background image (in gray-level format) is stored in an external SRAM memory, (b) a low-pass filter is applied to both the stored and current images, (c) a subtraction operation between both images is obtained, and (d) a morphological filter is applied over the resulting image. Afterward, the gravity center of the object is calculated and sent to a PC (via RS-232 interface).

A survey paper on Pollution Free Smart Cities using Smart Monitoring System b...IJSRD
The world we live in had evolved into a world where almost every family has at least one vehicle in their possession to be safe we could assume that each family has on average two vehicles. Now due to the increase in the number of vehicles in the road there is that much of an increase in the pollutant levels being increased onto the environment. The major sources of air pollution are CO, NOx and HC and these are a major degradation factor to the environment. To tackle this problem this paper talks about a monitoring system which is placed on the automobile to measure the pollutant levels emerging from the vehicle. On top of that some safety features have been added as well for the driver and all of the people traveling in the vehicle in the form of an alcohol sensor and a seat belt sensor. How this works is that the sensors are placed on the vehicle and can be connected through the users android device. The android device through a WiFi connection is connected to the server, the server is connected to a database and that database has the administrator PC to view and monitor the data. The safety feature is the addition of the alcohol sensor which is connected to the ignition of the vehicle and how it works is that if the driver has any alcohol and it is detected by the sensor then automobile will not start, hence adding an additional safety measure to the vehicle on top of pollution monitoring. This project works on an IoT environment and there is a lot of scope with smart devices in the future.

Design a multi-parameter data acquisition system for an Air Quality Monitoring and publish the data over internet through embedded web server The most common causes of CO exposure are fires, faulty combustion heating systems, exhaust from internal combustion engines and heating gases other than natural gas. Leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths is due to carbon monoxide. CO impairs oxygen delivery and has its most lethal effects on organs requiring high levels of oxygen like the brain and heart. Air quality monitoring system presents a network for indoor and outdoor air quality monitoring. Each node is installed in a different room and includes tin dioxide sensor arrays connected to an acquisition system. The nodes are hardwired or wirelessly connected to a central monitoring unit. To increase the gas concentration measurement accuracy, two gas sensor influence quantities like temperature and humidity are also measured. Therefore, the proposed work is multi parameter data acquisition system for air quality monitoring and to publish the data over internet through embedded web server. The data of the different sensors are transmitted using the wireless transmission technique and it is published over the internet.

A Border security Using Wireless Integrated Network Sensors (WINS)Saurabh Giratkar
Wireless Integrated Network Sensors (WINS) now provide a new monitoring and control capability for monitoring the borders of the country. Using this concept we can easily identify a stranger or some terrorists entering the border. The border area is divided into number of nodes. Each node is in contact with each other and with the main node. The noise produced by the foot-steps of the stranger are collected using the sensor. This sensed signal is then converted into power spectral density and the compared with reference value of our convenience. Accordingly the compared value is processed using a microprocessor, which sends appropriate signals to the main node. Thus the stranger is identified at the main node. A series of interface, signal processing, and communication systems have been implemented in micro power CMOS circuits. A micro power spectrum analyzer has been developed to enable low power operation of the entire WINS system.

To Understand the Eco-System in Digital Media Marketing.Saurabh Giratkar
Title of the Dissertation Report is “To Understand the ecosystem of digital media marketing” and Objectives of the Dissertation are to understand the change in consumer buying behavior in digital era. Methodology used for achieving these objectives is a exploratory research. For achieving the objective, I have done one research using an online questionnaire. The title for the research is “Understand the consumer buying behaviour of Indian in digital era”.
Main findings of this Dissertation are given here. Indian customers are highly information seekers. They collect more information about a product before buying it. Internet penetration in India is key player for this phenomenon. Most of Indians are getting stimulus through advertisements, but they are not reaching to end phase of customers purchase journey, mainly in high involvement purchases. Brands are getting more touch point to reach their target group in this digital era. More details about findings are given this report.
The successful completion of this Dissertation indicates that the future of marketing is in the hands of digital. I conclude my research by quoting again that “Brands can’t sustain without digital presence”
Advertising in business is a form of marketing communication used to encourage, persuade, or manipulate an audience to take or continue to take some action. Most commonly, the desired result is to drive consumer behaviour with respect to a commercial offering. Advertising is defined by Richard F. Taflinger as “Advertising is the non-personal communication of information usually paid for and usually persuasive in nature about products, services or ideas by identified sponsors through the various media."
Impact of Packaging on Consumer Buying Behavior.Saurabh Giratkar
The aim of this thesis is to get the A study to point toward Impact of packaging on consumer buying behavior. The basic purpose of behind it is Animesh Packaging Industry wants to tie up with one Cracker Manufacturing firm and they want all packaging material which will require to pack their product from us and hence to decide the outer packaging this survey is taken out also to know how factors affects the behavior of customers. According to this research I try to find the positive relationship between independent variable and dependent variables. For collecting the data, I will use the questionnaire, while for analysis I will use SPSS 16. A sample of 100 consumers will be selected to test the reliability of the model. For that we create questionnaire on Monkeysearch.com and request the costumers to fill the survey online. The significance of the study, its delimitation and limitations are discussed. The research is based in India. The consumer buying behavior is dependent variable.
The packaging is the most important factor. Packaging elements like Packaging color. Background Image, Packaging Material, Font Style, Design of wrapper, Printed Information and Innovation is taken as predictors. Due to increasing self-service and changing consumers’ lifestyle the interest in package as a tool of sales promotion and stimulator of impulsive buying behavior is growing increasingly. So package performs an important role in marketing communications, especially in the point of sale and could be treated as one of the most important factors influencing consumer’s purchase decision. Literature analysis on question under investigation has shown that there is no agreement on classification of package elements as well as on research methods of package impact on consumer’s purchase decision.

Many organizations expect managers who manage employees to exhibit both management and leadership qualities. They are required to build relationships among direct-report employees and to motivate them to achieve individual and group goals. The degree to which managers can successfully manage their staff's performance will be important for evaluating their worth to the organization.
A Combined Effect
Defining managerial effectiveness depends on an organization's management model. One way to look at managerial effectiveness is this: it's the combined effect of a manager who uses different management tools and techniques. Phillip G. Clampitt's model includes communication technologies, data, knowledge, action, performance feedback, boundary spanning, change and innovation. In this model, a manager brings all his actions together, providing different kinds of assistance to employees, such as helping them adjust to change and come up with new ideas that lead to innovation.
Planning and Execution
Another way to look at managerial effectiveness concerns the approach a manager takes to get people to produce desired outcomes. Some managers are less focused on interpersonal skills, perhaps having zero charisma, and are keenly focused on planning and execution. They set goals, create a plan for implementing those goals, assume responsibility for their decisions and share the implementation plan with employees through effective communication. If they have a high degree of managerial effectiveness, the results will follow from their systematic style.
The theories of an early 20th century political philosopher, Mary Parker Follett, have added much to modern day management theory, organisations, and leadership.
Leadership is multi-faceted containing numerous qualities, function, and styles. It is a construct that continues to be debated during a revival in interest of the ideas of Mary Parker Follett. Her thoughts on management and leadership have been informative and inspirational. Indeed, management theoretician Peter Drucker called her the 'prophet of management' and his 'guru'. Follett's ideas are certainly relevant in contemporary society, not only for organisations, but also for the individual, as they continue to challenge the lay ideas of leadership.

In the field of computing, Trojans have been around for
even longer than computer viruses – but traditionally have
been less of a cause for concern amongst the community of
personal computer users. In recent years, however, they have
been the focus of increased attention from anti-virus
companies and heightened levels of user concern due to the
popularity of networked computers.
As the world is moving to an age of computers which
are open to sharing of resources and communication, a very
dark cloud has been thrown over by the unfortunate publishing
of easily used and abused programs so called as Trojans.
Almost every existing network operating system provides the
sort of features that make Trojans possible. If an awareness of
such programs is not made then sneakier people can easily
attack any networked computer with similar tactics without
warning.
The vulnerability that exists is that computers don’t
have any internal controls, it is the user who controls the
computers. If computers are not controlled properly, we’ll
either have increasingly serious security breaches or the
computer industry will go back to locked down main frame
type processing computers to force automatic controls.
As it is said, ”Prevention is better then cure” and hence
with the help of this paper we will be discussing the various
Trojan functions, Trojan variations, Media of infection and the
dis-infection procedures, which will assure prevention from a
Trojan attack.
Brain Computer Interface Next Generation of Human Computer InteractionSaurabh Giratkar
In the area of HCI research the main focus is on defining new ways of human interaction with computer system. With the passes of time a number of inventions have been made in this field. In initial days we used only keyboards to access our computer system (e.g. in Unix Terminal). In Second phase, after invention of mouse and other pointing devices, we started using graphical user interface using pointing devices like mouse which make the use of computer more easy and comfortable. Nowadays we are using pressure-driven mechanism, i.e. touch screen, which is common at ATMs, Mobile phones and PDAs etc. Although it is not as common in daily works but the release of tablet PCs and its popularity shows that the day is not much far when we wouldn’t be having keyboards and mouse at all.
All of these inventions have been made for balancing the requirements of society and user. E.g. Games, Multimedia Applications etc are not possible using only-Keyboard so we need mouse driven system for such applications, similarly we cannot have large keyboard on mobile so we need a touch screen system for mobiles. In addition to these traditional HCI models, there are some more advance HCI technology too for adding more flexibility and hence making the product more useful. E.g. swap card system at office doors for attendance and ATM-swap card for shopping. Speech processing systems are also there where we can access our computer system using our speech. Fig 1 shows most popular traditional HCI system.

Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

J.D.I.E.T.Yavatmal. Page 1
Abstract:
This paper contain brief introduction to vehicular pollution, effect of increase in
vehicular pollution on environment as well on human health. To monitor this pollution
wireless sensor network (WSN) system is proposed. The proposed system consists of a
Mobile Data-Acquisition Unit (Mobile-DAQ) and a fixed Internet-Enabled Pollution
Monitoring Server (Pollution-Server). The Mobile-DAQ unit integrates a single-chip
microcontroller, air pollution sensors array, a General Packet Radio Service Modem
(GPRS-Modem), and a Global Positioning System Module (GPS-Module). The
Pollution-Server is a high-end personal computer application server with Internet
connectivity. The Mobile-DAQ unit gathers air pollutants levels (CO, NO2, and SO2),
and packs them in a frame with the GPS physical location, time, and date. The frame is
subsequently uploaded to the GPRS-Modem and transmitted to the Pollution-Server via
the public mobile network. A database server is attached to the Pollution- Server for
storing the pollutants level for further usage by various clients such as environment
protection agencies, vehicles registration authorities, and tourist and insurance
companies.

1.INTRODUCTION:
Many air pollution systems in urban and rural areas that utilize smart sensor
networks and wireless systems were reported in recent literature. An environmental
air pollution monitoring system that measures CO, NO2, and SO2 was reported. The
system is based on a smart sensor micro converter equipped with a network capable
application processor that downloads the pollutants level to a personal computer for
further processing. A wearable and wireless sensor system for real-time monitoring
of toxic environmental volatile organic compounds was developed in. An air
pollution geo-sensor network consisting of 24 sensors and 10 routers was installed to
monitor several air pollutants in. The system provides alarm message depending on
the detected pollution types in the field. A high-resolution surveillance Web-camera
was used to monitor air quality via the Internet. The associate editor coordinating the
review of this paper and approving it for publication was Prof. Giorgio Sberveglieri.
A wireless mesh network based on embedded microprocessors consisting of multiple
sensors and multihop wireless communication is designed to cover a geographic area
in. The system monitors and transmits parameters atmospheric environment to a
command center. Another wireless sensor network system was developed to monitor
indoor air quality in. The indoor environmental parameters were monitored and
transferred to a client personal computer or personal digital assistant (PDA) using an
RF transmitter. An outdoor air pollution monitoring system using ZigBee networks
for ubiquitous-cities was reported in. The system integrates a wireless sensor board
which employs dust, CO2, temperature, and humidity sensors. The system’s
monitoring range is 270 m. An abstract model of a system based on long-range
wireless communication was proposed in.Most of the above air pollution and quality
monitoring systems are based on sensors that report the pollutants levels to a server
via wired modem, router, or short-range wireless access points. In this paper, we
propose a system that integrates a single-chip microcontroller, several air pollution
sensors (CO, NO2, SO2), GPRS-Modem, and a general positioning systems (GPSs)

module. The integrated unit is a mobile and a wireless data acquisition unit that
utilizes the wireless mobile public networks. The unit can be placed on the top of any
moving device such as a public transportation vehicle. While the vehicle is on the
move, the microcontroller generates a frame consisting of the acquired air pollutant
level from the sensors array and the physical location that is reported from the
attached GPS module. The pollutants frame is then uploaded to the General Packet
Radio Service Modem (GPRS-Modem) and transmitted to the Pollution-Server via
the public mobile network. A database server is attached to the Pollution-Server for
storing the pollutants level for further usage by interested clients such as
environment production agencies, vehicles regeneration authorities, tourist and
insurance companies. The Pollution-Server is interfaced to Google maps to
display real-time pollutants levels and their locations in large metropolitan area
such as Sharjah City, UAE. The rest of the paper is organized as follows.

3. HARDWARE ARCHITECTURE:
To satisfy the system’s functional and nonfunctional requirements, two major building
blocks are needed, namely: a Mobile Data-Acquisition Unit (Mobile-DAQ) and a fixed
Internet-Enabled Pollution monitoring Server (Pollution-Server).The Mobile-DAQ unit is
designed by integrating the following hardware modules shown in Fig. 1. As the figure
shows, the Mobile-DAQ consists of a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller integrated with a
sensor array using analog ports. The Mobile-DAQ is also connected to a GPS module and
a GPRS-Modem using the RS-232 interface. Each of these components is described in
the following.
3.1 16-Bit Single-Chip Microcontrollers:-
The microcontroller is a single-chip device that has rich built-in resources for digital
input/output ports, 16 channels, 8/10 bits analog-to-digital converter, 8 input/output
interrupt- driven timers, 12 Kbytes of RAM, 4 Kbytes of EEPROM, 256 Kbytes of
FEEPROM, two RS-232 serial communication ports, 4 Control Area Networks ports,I2C
and SPI communication ports [9]. These resources are more than enough for the proposed
application.
3.2 Sensors Array:-
The sensor array consists of three air pollutions sensors including Carbon Monoxide
(CO), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2). As Table I shows, the
resolution of these sensors is sufficient for pollution monitoring. Each of the above
sensors has a linear current output in the range of 4 mA–20 mA. The 4 mA output
corresponds to zero-level gas and the 20 Ma corresponds to the maximum gas level. A
simple signal conditioning circuitwas designed to convert the 4 m A compatible with the
voltage range of the built-in analog-to-digital converter in the 16-bit single chip
microcontroller described earlier.

3.3 GPS Module:-
The GPS module provides the physical coordinate location of the mobile-DAQ, time and
date in National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) format .NEMA format includes
the complete position, velocity, and time computed by a GPS receiver where the position
The data packet from the GPS-Module includes an RMS Header followed by UTC time,
data validity checksum, latitude, longitude, velocity, heading, date, magnetic variation
and direction, mode, and checksum. The only information required for the proposed
system is date, time, latitude and longitude. The GPS modem is interfaced with the
microcontroller using the RS-232 communication standard.
3.4 GPRS-Modem:-
The general packet radio service (GPRS) is a packet-oriented mobile data service used in
2G and 3G cellular communication systems global system for mobile communications
(GSM).The proposed system uses a GPRS-Modem as a communication device to
transmit time, date, physical location and level of air pollutants. The modem used for the
proposed system has an embedded communication protocol that supports Machine-to-
Machine (M2M) intelligent wireless Transmission Control Protocol (TCP/IP) features
such as Simple Mail Transfer (SMTP) E-mail, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), and Simple
Messaging Service (SMS) services Protocol. The modem supports an RS-232 interface
that allows Serial TCP/IP socket tunneling. The modem also has rugged aluminum
enclosure making it suitable for the proposed system.
3.5 Pollution-Server:-
The Pollution-Server is an off-the-shelf standard personal computer with accessibility to
the Internet. As Fig. 1 shows, the Pollution-Server connects to the GPRS-Modem via
TCP/IP through the Internet and the public mobile network. The server requires a private
IP address for the GPRS-Modem and communicates over a pre-configured port. The

4. SOFTWARE DESIGN:
The system software architecture is having five different functions. This function is
responsible for acquiring the real-time data from the sensors-array and the physical
location, time and date of the sampled pollutants from the GPS module. This information
is then encapsulated into a data frame by the microcontroller. The microcontroller then
sends each frame to the GPRS-Modem through the RS-232 interface. The GPRS-Modem,
in turn, sends each data frame to the Pollution-Server using the publicly available mobile
network and the Internet.
The physical layer is implemented using ANSI C language which is compiled to native
microcontroller code. The software implementing the physical layer is composed of five
functions,namely:PortsRead()function,Sensor-Acquisition()function,GPS-Read()function,
Data-Frame() function, and GPRS-Transit()function. Are called from a main program
that is stored on and executed by the Mobile-DAQ microcontroller.
4.1.Ports-Read()function :
Developed to configure the digital inputs/outputs in addition to the resolution of the
analog-to-digital converters that read the air pollutants level from sensor array outputs.
4.2.Sensor-Acquisition ()function:
Reads each pollutant level as a voltage from the signal conditioning circuit output via the
built-in analog-to-digital converter module of the microcontroller.
4.3.GPS-Read()function :
Communicates with the GPS module through RS-232 and extracts latitude and longitude
of the sampled air pollutant along with time and the date.
10. Air Pollution Monitoring System Using Mobile GPRS Sensors Array
J.D.I.E.T.Yavatmal. Page 10
4.4. Data-Frame() function :
Encapsulates the IP address of the Pollution Server, a port number, the three pollutants
levels, latitude and longitude of the sampled location, and time and date of the when the
samples were taken. The data frame is shown in Fig.
4.5.GPRS-Transit() function :
Selectively sends the data frame to the GPRS-Modem using the RS-232 interface N port.
This frame is sent according to the algorithm shown in Fig 2. As the figure shows, a data
frame is only transmitted if the pollutant’s level has changed since the last reading.
The implementation stage consists of three primary modules: Pollution-Server, Air-
Pollution-Index, and Google Mapper. Pollution-Server collects and stores pollutant data
from all the Mobile-DAQs. Air Pollution-Index calculates pollution cate- gories based on
local pollution policies and regulations. Air-Pollution-Index Function to convert the
rawpollutant level received from each Mobile-DAQ to pollution standards called air
quality index (AQI) using the formula [14] .Finally, Google Mapper, makes this pollution
information available over the Internet.
AQI = (

5. IMPLEMENTATION AND TESTING:
The Environment Protection and Safety Section (EPSS) in Dubai has monitored air
quality since 1988 [14]. Their current system is based on six static monitoring stations
located around the Dubai metropolitan area. These stations send air pollutant data to a
central server using fixed line modem connections. The pollution data is also available to
the public through their Web site. This system has worked well. However, the data
collected is limited to the vicinity of the six monitoring stations. Consequently, a mobile
system based on the hardware and software architecture described earlier was built and
tested in the UAE.
The designed sensor array consisting of CO, NO2, and SO2 was interfaced through a
signal conditioning circuit through analogue channels 5, 6, and 7 of the HCS12
microcontroller. The sensor output voltages representing the level of gas for each
pollutant ( ) were converted to a ppm value for each gas. The GPS module was
connected to COM0 and the GPRS-Modem was connected to COM1 of the
microcontroller. Fig.2 shows a typical data frame format being transmitted from
GPRS-Modem to the Pollution-Server. The Mobile-DAQ was mounted on a University
bus that was driven around the campus of the American University of Sharjah (AUS) to
collect pollutant data. The Mobile-DAQ was mounted on top front of the bus to avoid
contamination from the bus exhaust. The pollutant data was collected for 12 h. Fig. 3
shows how a user can use the Internet to access pollutant levels in a location covered by
the bus. As the figure shows, Google Maps is used as the primary interface. Pollutant data
is shown using different coloured polygons that are superimposed on the map. The colour
code used for these polygons was consistent with the AQI index of the Dubai
Municipality. As the figure shows, different areas within the American University of
Sharjah campus have different levels of pollutants. The yellow polygon shows light
pollution while the green polygons show clean air according to the AQI index. As Fig.5
shows, a user can click any of the polygons to retrieve details of the various pollutant
levels. A user can further drill down by clicking to view the past data for any of the gases

6.CONCLUSION:
The proposed Wireless Air Pollution Monitoring System provides real-time information
about the level of air pollution in these regions, as well as provides alerts in cases of
drastic change in quality of air. This information can then be used by the authorities to
take prompt actions such as evacuating people or sending emergency response team.A
wireless distributed mobile air pollution monitoring system was implemented using the
GPRS public network along with GPS. The system utilizes city buses to collect pollutant
gases such as CO, NO2, and SO2. The pollution data from various mobile sensor arrays
is transmitted to a central several that make this data available on the Internet through a
Google Maps interface. The data shows the pollutant levels and their conformance to
local air quality standards.
