Blog One – In the Air Tonight Project Start
Hey, Christophe here. Let me introduce you to my project entry for Summer of Sensors - In the Air Tonight challenge design competition sponsored by E14 and Renesas (thank you for picking my entry!)

Introduction We spend so much time taking care what food we consume and how it affects our health but rarely do we stop to think about the very air that we breath. Depending on our location anything from a simple walk to just sitting at our des...
The full press release can be read by clicking here.A big thank you to all who participated in the In the Air IoT Design Challenge, the partners, element14 and the wider public have been deeply impressed by the projects we've seen to help create ...
Programing code and Hardware:Like what I guess. I really stuck at the programing coding. It take me more time then the given. The given example code from the Sensirion cannot just implemented directly in the Energia . Example code from Arduino also n...
well, obviously I overestimated my free time when I designed the project concept, hence did not manage to complete the system. It was really fun though, and a great opportunity to play with some really cool stuff, like the TI launchpads, BBB, BitScop...
One of, the most important aspects for an IoT solution, in my point of view, is device management, and more specifically the ability to receive over the air firmware updates (OTA). If OTA works, all other problems can be potentially solved.My archite...
Hello everyone from Chrystal and Dale, We want to thank everyone for this exciting and very big learning experience. Although we didn't complete 100% of what was planned, we will continue to work on this project until finished. For both of u...
Preface
Before anything else, I would like to personally thank the organisers and sponsors of this challenge, and kudos to doctorcdf for the great support and ironing out issues around some duties on the kits. This challenge has been really an ...
Introduction
Work Plan
Energy Harvester Module based on the TI BQ25504 and a SuperCap
Energy Efficient Wireless Sensor Node based on the TI CC110L and FR5969
Gateway device Based on the BeagleBone Black
Standalone Sensor Node based on the T...
Today I took down the outdoor sensor to work on the smart plug and smart switch modules. I've ordered a few more CC3200 modules but may not arrive in time, especially that this challenge ends tomorrow, but that does not mean further development...
The outdoor sensor module has been collecting data for the past few days now and am quite happy with the results. From the graph of mains power consumption, aside from knowing how much electricity is used and the carbon footprint is, I was able ...
This will probably be my last post for this challenge as I will leave tomorrow morning for a business strip and returning next monday. hen I experiment, when I test new components and ideas, and also every time I fail, I have fun. So this chall...
In this post, a complete overview of the implemented solution will be provided Data collectionThe first step is to collect data by simply driving around while the smartphone app records data players.brightcove.net/.../index.html Pushin...
After recording this video, I closed down the bonnet with the intent to go around and collect some data. But as soon as I closed the bonnet, AirMobile sensor disconnected from the smartphone. I reopened the bonnet, and connection was backThe problem ...
Continuing from the last post, I created a (Windows Phone) mobile application that is largely based from this article and modified for use with the proposed system. The UI will be very simple and will display the core metrics as defined in AirV...
The other major contributor to Carbon dioxide footprint is transportation accounting for the 13% of global emissions in 2004.For a typical household, transportation would be the second main contributor for carbon footprint and part of this system is ...
For the Checkerspot Butterfly's sake, solutions will take wing.Welcome to the last week of the In the Air Challenge. element14, Texas Instruments, Würth, Cisco, the Eclipse Foundation and Sierra Wireless all been intrigued and fascinated by the solut...
