Back-end and Web Dashboard for Monitoring and Controlling IoT Devices

1. Create a back-end to - Manage device's owners and users - Manage devices include sensor devices and switch devices - Manage locations and areas - Manage widgets of dashboards - Widget details are: .... Define Devices and Levels of status, .... Manage Charts .... Define Notification/message, Actions with conditions/rules (Send email or control IoT switches) - Reports .... Output reports of device statuses, notifications and actions .... Output reports of devices and belonged owners 2. Server Process - Retrieve data IoT data from external database - Prepare display information for widgets - Handle above user defined rules to trigger following items .... Send Notification, email message (When devices meet rules) .... Control IoT switches (When devices meet rules) .... The rules would consider timers or counters .... Keep logs of actions - Process started on server started 3. Create Dashboard Web Pages - Only authorized users can access dashboard - Select area or sub-area to display - Real-time update the dashboard - Dashboard contains widgets, the widget contents are .... Display Device status, .... Display Charts - Display summary of sub-areas in the main area - Allow users to select area - Allow users to mute, stop notifications 4. Email cron jobs - Please schedule cron job to send emails or send control signals You are required to access another database which continuously collecting statuses of IoT devices. IoT device switches are controlled by APIs. Please read the document of the following link You can - use document to connect APIs OR [login to view URL] - use vendor provided JAVA SDK to call APIs [login to view URL] Case 1: Type of Solution - Energy Consumptions Devices involved - Switches - Remote Criteria - When Switches or Remote is opened, Dashboard will receive a message, display the status of Switches or Remote to "open", then display and start timer - When Switches or Remote is closed, Dashboard will receive a message, display the status of Switches or Remote to "close", then display and start timer - Calculate the total power consumption and prepare charts Case 2: Type of Solution - Security Devices involved - PIR Sensor - Door Sensor Criteria - When Door Sensor is in "open" status, Dashboard will receive a message, system will send email alert and browser displays notification - When PIR Sensor sensed some one there, Dashboard will receive a PIR message, system will send email alert and browser displays notification - To prevent false alarm, add an option to Dashboard to decide to temporary or permanently stop sending email alert and the browser notification Case 3 Type of Solution - Hub Server, Pantry Devices involved - Water Leakage Sensor - Water Valve Criteria - Start Water Valve at scheduled time - When Water Leakage Sensor send an "alarm" signal, Dashboard will receive a message, system stop the Water Valve and send email alert and browser displays notification * Back-end can define different conditions. It includes temperature sensor, system time, timer, counter, ON/OFF status of Switches Please read the attached wire-frame for reference
