The Data-Acquisition systems with remote accessibility are greatly demanded in industry and consumer applications. In this paper, a data-acquisition system which can save lives and property, based on GSM communication, accommodating a wide range of electronic devices is presented. The system has the special ability to automatically quench fire by spraying water during fire accidents, simultaneously informing the local fire station and the responsible persons as well, saving loss of life and property. Also the varying status can be instantaneously recorded and uploaded in internet, for failure analysis. By using a GPS receiver it is possible to acquire and display the images of the locations where there are fire accidents by decoding the text SMS data, which helps in continuously tracking the fire accident location using google maps, helping the fire engine to reach instantly. Also the cost-effectiveness of the overall system is proved. The embedded board acts as the main controller of this system which has a SIM card placed in it and thus communicates using GSM, making it accessible from anywhere in the world, providing a faster two-way data transfer between the Embedded system and the client, in real-time.

Environmental studies on coastal dune systems are faced with a considerable cost barrier due to the cost of the instrumentation and sensory equipment required for data collection. These systems play an important role in coastal areas as a protection against erosion and as providers of stability to coastal sedimentary deposits. The DIY (Do-It-Yourself) approach to data acquisition can reduce the cost of these environmental studies. In this paper, a low-cost DIY wireless wind data acquisition system is presented which reduces the cost barrier inherent to these types of studies. The system is deployed for the analysis of the foredune of Maspalomas, an arid dune field situated on the south coast of Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain), for the specific purpose of studying the dynamics of a dune type (tongue dunes), which is typical of this environment. The results obtained can be of interest for the study of these coastal environments at both the local level, for the management of this particular dune field, and at the general level for other similar dune fields around the world.

The Divertor nuclear flux monitor (DNFM) is one of the ITER neutron diagnostics. This diagnostic consists of the three same subsystems. Each subsystem concludes the detector module with fission chambers (FCs) and the data acquisition system (DAQ). To solve the task of the neutron flux measurements in the range of 7 orders of magnitude and 1 ms of time resolution the multidetector module is used. To confirm the possibility of the neutron flux measurements in a wide range using such a detector module and to evaluate the characteristics of the DAQ prototype a number of tests were carried out under conditions of the intense neutron radiation. The detector module and the DAQ, which are the prototype of the equipment planned for use on site were used for the tests. The tests were carried out at the plasma neutron diagnostic stand based on the NG-24M neutron generator and at the IBR-2 pulsed reactor of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. During the tests at the plasma neutron diagnostic stand the data for the calibration of the DNFM DAQ measuring channels were collected. During the tests at the IBR-2 pulsed reactor the signals from the measuring channels of the DNFM subsystem were obtained while the neutron flux was changed. This report shows the test results and the subsystem calibration techniques.

The basic components of our Fast Digital Data Acquisition System (FDDAS) have been described elsewhere. The fully programmable nature of each FDDAS hardware device along with the independent modular structure of the associated software has provided the desired flexibility for several software expansions. Because of their complexity, certain routines, such as selectable dual-channel test pattern generation and the joystick service routine, constitute independent modules in their own right. Other routines, for image data manipulation and real time computer control of scan parameters, can be written in assembly language or FORTRAN and separately compiled and included in a software library for easy inclusion or deletion without modification of major data transfer modules.

This work describes the design, construction and test of a data acquisition system which performs the real-time monitoring and recording of temperatures in thermal envelope and water consumption in households. This system allows diagnosis and assessment of efficient use of water and a thermal report for electric efficiency purposes. The prototype was subjected to comparative tests with commercial instruments that were used during the project of collaboration with Universidad Autonoma of Baja California and Dennis engineering. The project was developed for energy-efficient housing prototypes for the middle market residential of Mexicali, localized at the state of Baja California in Mexico. At first case, a high gain or loss of heat causes significant increases of important loads as the refrigerator and air conditioning owing to their increment in operation times. Many efficiency energy projects make use of traditional systems for temperature monitoring, whose characteristics exceed the requirements for this type of application and they present economic disadvantages, which can be solved with virtual acquisition systems. Two virtual instruments in LabVIEW were developed which allow real-time acquisition, analysis and recording, with flexible viewing by the user of temperatures and volume of water consumed. Also automatically save data in excel files by specific times. This system can diminish the cost of a conventional temperature monitoring system with 8 acquisition channels approximately in a 50%, keeping precision and accuracy required for this type of applications. The dispositive has the flexibility for monitoring other variables for energy audit, and currently is being tested for climate and electric power parameters.

Abstract For many educational engineering projects running in Universities, a data acquisition system is a key component. Buying a system from the market is a viable option but many times the cost of it is prohibitive for the low budgets of University projects. This paper investigates the idea of implementing an own data acquisition system with use in small educational projects. Together with the advantage of cost reduction, an own implementation is an engineering exercise in itself, providing learning opportunities for the student. The paper presents first the results of a market scan for development platforms which can be used and then an example implementation of a simple data acquisition system using a low cost development platform. The performance of the implemented system is measured and presented. The main purpose of this paper is to encourage students and young researchers to implement their own tools, using this learning experiences along the way of meeting the project targets.
