Design and Implementation of a Low-Cost Wireless Platform for Remote Bridge Health Monitoring
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work a low cost Arduino based Bridge health monitoring system is proposed. This uses Web Server with IP connectivity for accessing accelerometer readings. Statistical signal processing of readings obtained from sensors involve intensive calculations. As a result processors that support large data size and high duty cycles are required for data assessment. Internet of things (IoT) helps in integrating data from various sensors located at different geographical location and leveraging it to a high computing machine at Base station. Arduino, an open source hardware platform reads vibration data from an accelerometer and transmits this information on web based Application Programming Interface (API). The IoT has been used to connect the accelerometer to the internet thereby enabling the computation and analysis of real time data at base station. Keywords-Arduino, API, IoT, Bridge Health Monitoring, Structural Health Monitoring.
