  1. ECE 480 Fall 2011 Team 5 Jordan Bennett Kyle Schultz Min Jae Lee Kevin Yeh

  2. Introduction • Project Objectives: • Design a sensor module, compatible to TI’s wireless sensing system (µMAVRK), for the immersion of concrete • Specifically: • Relay temperature and humidity metrics from the sensor module, wirelessly, to a centralized unit (MAVRK) for further analysis • Implement code for communication from the µMAVRK to the MAVRK

  3. MAVRK Modular And Versatile Reference Kit. • Purpose • Used for rapid prototyping • Modules to encapsulate functionality • Advantage

  4. µMAVRK • µMAVRK is an extension of the MAVRK for remote monitoring. • Lower power (<10 ma) • RF Transceiver • µEVM • MSP430

  5. Example- Rapid prototyping of our own circuit • Dc to Dc boost converter • Temperature Circuit • Amplification Circuit • What if TI had modules for all three? • Program firmware to handle interaction between all three.

  6. Design Requirements - kyle • Functionality • Sense Temperature/Humidity of • Concrete • Communicate with uMAVRK • Send Signal to MAVRK • calibrate data received • Compatibility • Small enough to be embedded in concrete • Power source lasting at least 3 weeks • • end product that can be shown on public demonstration • Accuracy • +-1 degree tolerance on temperature • 1~3% RH Humidity error • multiple data point for comparison
