Mon, 24 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000

In recent years, solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have seen increased utilization for powering a diverse range of applications, from residentials and buildings to off-grid installations, highlighting their growing importance in the global transition towards sustainable development using renewable energy sources. This paper proposes the development of a compact solar PV system for emergency tent systems to aid preparations and rapid response efforts during disasters and unforeseen events. The system aims to support local authorities and communities in mitigating disaster risks due to power outages. The design and implementation of an emergency tent prototype measuring 3´3 m², with a power consumption of 0.36 kW/day using a 30 W solar PV panel and battery storage capacity of 40 Ah. The system is sufficient for powering the basic functions of dc bulbs and fans as the primary load.

Air Humidity Measurement Through Solar Panel

In this work, we will examine the placement of solar panels at certain heights to obtain optimal efficiency. To prove the effect of altitude and humidity, the authors conducted tests in areas with different altitudes and different temperatures, namely in the areas of Medan and Berastagi cities, where the city of Medan is located at an altitude of 2.5-7.5 meters above sea level, and the city area of Berastagi is higher, namely at an altitude of 1220 meters above sea level. The distance between the two areas is around 70 km and can be reached in approximately 2 hours of travel. With different altitudes and different climates, the authors are very interested in studying and researching how the effectiveness of solar panels is at different altitudes and humidity level and how it affects the Medan area, which has a tropical climate, and Berastagi, which has a cold climate.

Artificial intelligence, or AI, is a simulation technology that runs through human intelligence demonstrated by machines or tools. Artificial intelligence can overcome and provide a sense of comfort, especially in the application of CCTV devices that use this passive infrared sensor method. This method can detect thieves or people moving in the area of the house where CCTV is installed, by detecting human objects using IR filters. If it detects an object that has the minimum temperature possessed by humans, it will immediately direct the alarm indicator. With the existence of CCTV that applies AI, it is hoped that human life will be safe, and crime will be reduced in an area, especially quiet areas with high crime rates. The application of Passive Infrared Sensor (PIR Sensor) in this anti-theft CCTV tool can detect and be able to work with a high level of accuracy.

An essential part of an electric energy service is an electrical power meter. Numerous customers have already expressed dissatisfaction over the electric meter's faulty readings. The development of an electrical power meter with an NFC reader is presented in this study. When an NFC card is successfully scanned by the NFC reader, the power meter is turned on and ready to deliver electricity. Before the electricity is automatically turned off, or when the credit is almost low, the display will show the alert. By experiment, PZEM 004T sensor use 3 loads, namely 60 W, 75 W and 100 W for testing current, voltage and cos phi and have error of 0 – 1.20%. In balance reduction with loads of 60 W, 75 W, and 100 W with a time gap of 5 and 10 minutes, there is an error reduction of 11.5 – 17.4%. Thus, this electricity meter with NFC reader is suitable for monitoring and controlling electricity usage.

The monitoring of student attendance is a crucial aspect of the assessment of academic performance. The conventional methods for monitoring student attendance have inherent limitations in terms of both time efficiency and accuracy. Consequently, there is a clear need for a more expedient and precise attendance system. The objective of this research is to present the design of a real-time attendance recording and monitoring system for students from elementary school to senior high school, which will be implemented using the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT). The proposed system employs biometric technology in the form of face recognition. The methodology commences with the capture of images of students who leave the classroom during the instructional period via an active camera positioned on the classroom door. The system employs a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm and a powerful computer vision tool, OpenCV, to perform real-time face recognition. Teachers will be informed of student absences and returns, as well as at the 15th and 30th minutes. An absence exceeding 30 minutes is classified as truancy. The integration of sophisticated technologies, such as machine learning and image processing, not only enhances the precision of attendance records but also equips educators with an efficient and automated system for streamlining classroom attendance management. This not only optimizes the learning environment but also facilitates more advanced and efficient pedagogical practices.
