Protótipo de um sistema IoT capaz de atuar na descontaminação de ambientes

Abstract

In the present work, we propose an IoT system capable of disinfecting environments contaminated by fungi. The system is capable of monitoring the temperature and humidity of the environment and, based on this data, decide whether it is necessary to spray significant amounts of sodium hypochlorite to disinfect the monitored environment. Factors such as temperature and humidity are the most important for the development of the biological cycle of fungi, and sodium hypochlorite has proven to be a cheap and efficient chemical agent in combating fungi. The objective of the Integrator Project is to build a prototype of a system capable of disinfecting environments. Furthermore, the concepts of the Internet of Things must be applied when proposing the system. The main objective is quite broad and encompasses different aspects and scenarios. Therefore, in the present work we restricted the objective to the creation of a system that can act in the disinfection of environments contaminated by fungi, based on monitoring the temperature and humidity of the establishment (important factors for the proliferation of fungi).
