Abstract

IOT is an emerging area of network which acts as a future technology trend of sensing, computing, and communication. Internet of things integrates several techniques as wireless sensor network, Radio frequency identification and embedded devices with existing internet. IOT extends the concept of internet from network of homogeneous devices to network of heterogeneous devices. Air pollution is a major issue for providing healthy environment to the mankind. Healthy environment keeps mankind healthy. Hazardous gases detection becomes important. Hence a system for measuring and monitoring of air pollutants is to be provided. Wireless sensor network is found to be an efficient method of measuring and monitoring air pollutants.
