IoT solution for thermal comfort and air quality monitoring

The Internet of Things (IoT) has undergone an exponential growth recently and this is due to its usefulness. With its help, the data received from the sensors can be sent to the cloud and displayed in real time. The centralization of data and their recording in databases is also facilitated. In the context of the current energy crisis, a very important aspect is human thermal comfort. It can be evaluated through various indexes, which include the parameters that can be measured with sensor systems. In this article, such a system of sensors that measure temperature and relative humidity with the help of which the Heat Index (HI) is calculated is made. One of the parameters related to comfort is air quality, it is evaluated with the help of CO2 level. The sensor system made also measures the CO2 level and sends all the data to the cloud. The present study tries to see what is the combined influence of the two comfort indicators.
