Design and construction of a temperature monitoring device

Abstract

Monitoring system refers to a set of devices that helps to make sure that the working condition of a device or area is met, otherwise it gives an alarm for the user to adjust the device appropriately. Temperature monitoring is an important application used in almost all modern gadgets and smart homes. The system for monitoring temperature automatically can be achieved by using Arduinouno micro controller system. This project discusses the automatic alert device which is used to inform any user of the device that the temperature has reached a certain value and therefore temperature is being monitored. This makes it easy for someone monitoring the temperature of a body, temperature or a room to be informed in case of temperature rise beyond that value. Monitoring temperature manually during an experiment, boiling or any other temperature monitoring becomes easier and less time wasting while using the temperature device. This temperature monitoring device gives time for someone to do other things and be alerted only if the temperature has reached the desired value. The figures of the temperature are also displayed on a liquid crystal display and can be clearly read by the user. This temperature monitoring device helps in controlling fire outbreaks, breakage of laboratory equipment, health risks due to exposure to too much heat, heat accidents among other benefits. The device is highly efficient, portable and can simply be used by any person.
