Project Scope
To design an environmental monitoring system that can be used in rooms and data racks to monitor and alert the temperature, power and other environmental attributes using one or more USB powered environment sensors that are extremely inexpensive and flexible in configuration. The system will consist of nodes and a central server task that stores and displays historical data and provides alerting capabilities.
