Abstract

The purpose of this project was to design and implement an autonomous system based on Arduino to monitor environmental parameters that intervene in the perception of human comfort such as temperature, humidity, and solar radiation, and use them to analyze factors related to climate control and energy efficiency in buildings. The system was tested in laboratory conditions as well as by in situ measurements of building elements and living spaces. Some of the experiments carried out were contrasted with numerical simulations that allowed us to understand the implemented system.
