Proposal of Remote Monitoring Application Classroom Automation Oriented Toward Energy Savings in Educational Institutional
Keywords:
Remote monitoring, IoT, energy efficiencyAbstract
This paper presents the design and development of a proposed classroom automation system aimed at energy savings through the use of low-cost IoT technologies. The proposal integrates an ESP32 microcontroller, presence and gas detection sensors, as well as actuators controlled both autonomously and remotely through a web application. The methodology included the design of the system architecture, its simulation in Tinkercad, implementation in a functional-scale prototype, and validation tests under differentoperating scenarios.The results obtained in the testing environment demonstrate that the proposed system is capable of responding in real time to environmental changes by efficiently activating or deactivating electrical devices. The analysis suggests the feasibility of the proposal as an accessible and scalable alternative for educational institutions with limited resources, contributing to energy consumption optimization and environmental sustainability.
