Abstract
This paper presents the development of a ThingSpeak IoT on Real Time Room Condition Monitoring System with temperature and humidity measured for room condition. Many conditions like temperature and humidity monitoring systems have been designed previously but some lack systems are identified where it does not provide adaptively connections and alert to webpages on logging data collections. Thus, understanding the previous system model is important to compare the importance of new build parameters in designing the new system. An evaluation of the current model, hardware and software are important before a new architecture is developed. This research has developed a prototype system to monitor remotely a room temperature and humidity condition. The designed system assisted with an internet monitoring system for the room. Research methods consist of two parts involved hardware and software development. The hardware development covers the connections of temperature sensor and the software involved constructed coding using the C language program. The program then is compiled and uploaded into the Arduino MEGA 2560 to display the temperature of the room. An open-source Internet of Things called ThingSpeak is used as a platform to retrieve and display the collected data. Real-time monitoring can be accessed through smartphones and web applications. A room is analyzed in data gathering on time and daily basis conditions. This study has been considered successfully implemented and it is a significant study that performs on new IoT platforms and adaptively ready to monitor a room remotely.
