Schematics

Gateway

The prototype of wirelessly connected IoT device (Gateway) that collects the data from Sensors, and stores it in IOTA. Needs 12V, can be placed in the driver cabine of the vehicle or behind.

High-temperature Sensor

The prototype of the high-temp sensor to monitor the temperature of the tank with hazardous materials. Assumed to be placed on the tank.

GPS Sensor

The prototype of GPS coordinates sensor. Tracks the coordinates of the vehicle.

Gas Sensor

The prototype of Gas sensor to monitor possible leaks of toxic and/or flammable gases and liquids. Assumed to be placed in the tail of the vehicle.
