Heat stroke is considered a major problem in Karachi, with a considerable number of people recorded as victims each year. The proposed Internet-of-Things (IoT) based heat stroke shield works under heat stroke conditions, depending on a heat index value (atmospheric temperature and humidity). The system comprises of a wristband, a hardware kit and an alert system which can pre-notify a wearer regarding his body parameter readings. Moreover, the system can also work as a problem solver, in heat stroke condition, by showering water on the victim. In both cases, an alert will also be generated to the wearer’s caretakers with his GPS location.

The main objective of this paper is to study the outdoor thermal comfort of the central urban zone ofBelgrade during summer season in order to examine how different bioclimatic conditions affect humanbody. For this purposes Humidex, a simple heat index was applied. The research involved analyzingdifferent Humidex values, the so-called “sub-indices” calculated based on hourly (7:00 and 14:00),mean daily and maximum values of meteorological parameters (air temperature and humidity) that wererecorded at the meteorological station Belgrade - Vračar.), for the period 1999-2018. Outdoor thermalcomfort in Belgrade is generally more adverse in July and August, resulting in most days belonging tothe categories of “some discomfort” (30-39) and “great discomfort” (40-44), with periodic recording ofthe most severe categories of heat stress, as a category “very dangerous”(Humidex>55). Category of“very dangerous” heat stress shows linear increase during July, with positive trend of 0.03 days/10years. The findings also show that from 1999 to 2018, mean index value gradually rose and values ofsub-indices Humidex14h and HumidexTmax have exceeded thresholds 40 for great discomfort and 45 fordangerous heat stress more often then in the previous decades.

The Internet Of Things

Aiming at the lagging for the monitoring of warehouse and lacking the intelligence, an automated warehouse monitoring system is designed using the internet of things, which may be used to monitor the temperature, humidity, and case of fire in the warehouse simultaneously. The temperature and humidity sensor SHT10 is implemented as the detector of the temperature and humidity, the flame sensor R2868 and the ionic smoke transducer HIS-07 are implemented as the detector of smoke and flame to find the fire. These data are sent to the computer in the manager center through Zigbee technology and the computer will process and analyze them. When the fire occurs, this system can extinguish the fire and call the manager or 119 automatically. The experiments have been performed, and it is shown that the performance of system is reliable, which has the practical value.
