Lab in a Box : A Rapidly Deployable Environmental Monitoring IoT System

The advent of Internet of Things (IoT) has brought about a new horizon in the field of pervasive computing and network-oriented systems. IoT has enabled everyday "things" to communicate with each other, exchange information and perform tasks more efficiently in terms of power and resources while requiring minimum human intervention. As the application scope of IoT is tremendously vast, the integration of heterogeneous objects or "things" in an IoT system is a challenging task. In this paper, multiple embedded systems have been implemented in battery powered, small portable packages to acquire environmental data from various sensors and publish the information to several IoT cloud platforms for analysis and visualization, using different wireless transceiver technologies to demonstrate the portability, modularity, and interoperability of Lab in a Box.
