Smart Humidity Monitoring System for Infectious Disease Control -Arduino IoT Projects

Relative humidity of a room plays an important role in the well being of the occupants of the room. Relative humidity also play an important role in spread of infectious diseases. Relative humidity is the deciding factor which makes the virus active or inactive. Our work has considered this parameter humidity which may look inconspicuous, but plays an important role in our wellbeing of human beings. Our work considers the positive effects of maintaining humidity and has developed a sensor based IoT module which monitors the relative humidity of a room and updates the status to the occupants of the room. The system also controls the AC and Humidifier in the room to maintain optimum humidity levels ranging from 45%- 55%.The developed module is a cost effective solution which can be very beneficial in hospitals because the risk of infectious disease outbreak is high in such places.
