Embedded Systems: Zigbee Based Advanced Controlling System

Abstract: We are standing on the threshold of an exciting new age of information technology that will change our lives and the future forever. Soon we shall see more and more digitization of appliances, and these will be fuelled by human need. Embedded systems and Information appliances have virtually entered every sphere of our life and they will truly change the way we live. This paper, discuss an embedded platform that can be used to design and implement embedded control systems in a rapid and cost-efficient fashion. This platform is built on ZigBee and GSM technology. Therefore, the system development cost can be minimized. Since the platform provides a unified environment in which the users are able to perform all phases of the development cycle of control systems, the development time can be reduced while the resulting performance may potentially be improved. In addition to industrial control, the platform can also be applied to many other areas such as optimization, image processing, instrument, and education. The future work includes test and application of the developed platform in real-world systems where real sensors and actuators are deployed.A novel architecture of computer lab automation system is proposed and implemented; using relatively new wireless communication technology, which is Zigbee.The use of Zigbee technology, helps the lower expenses.
