, Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION:
The present invention relates to a smart laboratory system. The present invention more particularly relates to an IOT based smart laboratory system.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
The term Internet of Things (IoT) was first coined by Kevin Ashton in the year 1999 in the background of supply chain management. IoT represents the ability of network devices to sense and gather knowledge from the environment, this knowledge is then shared across the Internet where it can be processed and utilized for an extensive range of applications like healthcare, utilities, home automation, transportation, defense, public safety, wearables and augmented reality (AR). It is expected that IoT devices will rise to 26 billion by the year 2020, which is 30 times the estimated number of devices deployed in the year 2009. With the help of IoT, automation of processes is possible. The smart sensor networks which are connected to a cloud or local system can provide us with better control of the processes.
In the current scenario, there is a lot of unnecessary wastage of electricity in the laboratory. The appliances of the laboratory are left switched on even when not required. This leads to a rise in electricity consumption and hence exorbitant electricity bills.
So there is a need for a Smart Laboratory which takes into consideration environmental parameters such as temperature and light intensity of the laboratory. With the help of these parameters, the system analyze and process the information collected and then produce appropriate results. This system helps in automation and effective power consumption of the laboratory. The system is able to adapt to the environment and act accordingly. when the lights and fans were not required, they were switched off by the system automatically. This helped in reducing power wastage and misuse unlike earlier in the past. Due to automation of the laboratory, human assistance was not required to switch off appliances when they were not in use. The IoT based Smart Laboratory led to the smooth functioning and efficient usage of the electronic appliances of the laboratory and reduction in the average power consumption approximately by 30% for the smart laboratory over the traditional laboratory. The system extends the home automation technology to the college laboratories, and hence to create a smart laboratory. The smart laboratory reduces the amount of power consumed throughout the day. Thus, the system helps in managing energy efficiently. Also, the automation of the laboratory leads to its improved organization and reduces staff involvement in simple administration tasks.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION WITH RESPECT TO DRAWINGS:
The present invention is an IOT based smart laboratory system. The present invention analyzes and processes the information collected and then produce appropriate results and helps in automation and effective power consumption of the laboratory. The present invention helps in reducing power wastage and misuse unlike earlier in the past and smooth functioning and efficient usage of the electronic appliances of the laboratory and reduction in the average power consumption approximately by 30% for the smart laboratory.
In one embodiment, The system of the invention employs the integration of cloud networking, wireless communication, which provides the user with remote control of lights, fans, and appliances within their lab and storing the data in the cloud. The system automatically change on the basis of sensors’ data. This system is designed with low cost. The present system not only monitors the sensor data, like temperature, gas, light, motion sensors but also actuates a process according to the requirement, for example switching on the light when it gets dark. This helps the user to analyze the condition of various parameters in the lab anytime anywhere. Lab security feature like capturing the photo of a person moving around the house and storing it onto the cloud. This reduces the data storage than using the CCTV camera which records all the time and stores it. The system can be expanded for energy monitoring, or weather stations. The respective changes can be implemented in the hospitals for disable people or in industries where human invasion is impossible or dangerous, and it can also be implemented for environmental monitoring.
In another embodiment, The Smart Laboratory System sense the motion in the environment using the PIR sensor. When the motion is detected, the temperature and the light intensity from the environment is sensed using the temperature sensor and luminosity sensor. If the value of the temperature is beyond a certain threshold, then the fans of the laboratory are switched on for a certain time interval, else switched off. Similarly, if the luminosity value is beyond a certain threshold, then the tube lights in the laboratory are switched off for certain time interval, else switched on.
When no motion is detected, then tube lights and fans of the laboratory are switched off until motion is detected again.
The data from the sensors is sent to the microcontroller. The data from the microcontroller is sent to the cloud platform for constant monitoring and analyzing purposes. Based on the usage, patterns are detected and the threshold values of temperature and light intensity are modified accordingly. when the lights and fans are not required, they are switched off by the system automatically. This helped in reducing power wastage and misuse unlike earlier in the past. Due to automation of the laboratory, human assistance is not required to switch off appliances when they are not in use. The IoT based Smart Laboratory led to the smooth functioning and efficient usage of the electronic appliances of the laboratory.
The smart laboratory reduces the amount of power consumed throughout the day. Thus, the system helps in managing energy efficiently. Also, the automation of the laboratory leads to its improved organization and reduces staff involvement in simple administration tasks.
