Abstract/Summary
Today, in this age, power consumption is on the rise. Prices go up due to the increase in demand. In a university environment, not all classrooms are used all the time. However, lights and air-conditioning units inside these classrooms are left open. However, the lights and air-conditioning units inside these classrooms are left open. Energy is wasted since no one is utilizing the use of those lights and air-conditioning units. There is also the case of malfunctioning equipment where devices are either consuming more power or not properly functioning but still consumes energy. Another problem in this set up is that the classroom temperature may be too hot or cold for the students. Knowing when to turn on these devices and replace malfunctioning ones will definitely save money and energy for future use at the same time giving the students a conducive environment for learning.
This paper claims a system that has the capability to control these devices which are mainly the lights and air conditioning units. Temperature sensors are used that keep track of the temperature inside the classroom. Current sensors are used to track current to make sure that the devices are functioning properly and to check if devices are consuming under their proper range and specifications. The devices that are located in the classrooms are controlled and monitored wirelessly through a computer that is called the base station. The devices will only turn on whenever there is a class in the room. The schedules of the classes are saved within a database in the base station. The data gathered from the different devices are then also stored in the database.
