dc.description.abstract | With the rapid development of technology, small-size, low power consuming sensors are capable of processing data and wireless transmission. These kinds of sensors not only could detect changes in the environment but also transmit the information to the back-end information system after processing the received data. This new technology, the so-called “wireless sensor network” is programmable, easy to deploy, and it enables dynamic routing network. The main characteristic of the wireless sensor network is that it is programmable. Service providers can use the mass-produced sensors to build an unique environment for each different application.
The current study aims to investigate the application of wireless sensor network in industry. By using the infrared ray sensors to build up a wireless sensor network can monitor the temperature of the electric power box, improving the traditional way to measure temperature by men; thus, reduce work safety accidents. However, the “wireless sensor network” technology has a late start in Taiwan. Other than a few resources of the government and academic research studies, not much has been researched concerning the related area. Therefore, this research intends to provide practical applications of the “wireless sensor network” in industry. The study can also be served as a reference for future researchers who are interested in building and management of this field. | en_US |
