Project Summary

This idea can be used for automobiles as well as battery banks used in industrial and renewable power applications. Nowadays, electric vehicle is becoming popular since the fuel prices becoming more expensive. Due to these scenarios, many vehicle manufacturers looking for alternatives of energy sources other than gas. The use of electrical energy sources may improve the environment since there are less pollution. In addition, it produces great advantages in terms of energy saving and environmental protection. Most used rechargeable battery which is maintenance free battery. It is smaller to be compared with lead acid. Maintenance free battery life cycle can be shortened by some reasons such as overcharging and deep discharges. On the other hand, usually has limited range of travelling due to battery size and body structure. Now, an important reason that limits the application of   is the safety of existing battery technology. For example, overcharging battery not only could significantly shorten the life of the battery, but also cause a serious safety accident such as fire. Therefore, a battery monitoring system for   that can notify the user about battery condition is necessary to prevent the stated problems.

Previous battery monitoring system only monitor and detect the condition of the battery and alarmed the user via battery indicator inside the vehicle. Due to the advancement of the design of notification system, internet of things (IoT) technology can be used to notify the manufacturer and users regarding the battery status. This can be considered as one of the maintenance support range of devices and everyday things can be connected via the internet, making the world is at the user’s finger tips. Motivating by the stated problems, in this work, the design and development of a battery monitoring system using IoT technology is proposed. In most areas there are no automatic monitoring system available to notify the user with regard to the performance of the battery. Therefore, the used of IoT technology that incorporates together within the monitoring system can help in improving the preventive maintenance in ensuring the battery quality and increase the safety of the user.
