INTRODUCTION:
Today internet application development demand is very high. So IOT is a major technology by
which we can produce various useful internet applications.

Nowadays there are many news about smuggling of trees like Sandal, Sag wan etc. These trees
are very costly and rare. They are used in the medical sciences, cosmetics. To restrict their
smuggling and to save forests around the globe some preventive measures need to be deployed.
We have developed a system which can be used to restrict smuggling. The design system uses
three sensors vibration sensor, temperature sensor and circuit breaker. For vibration sensor and
circuit breaker buzzer is activated and for temperature sensor SMS sent to user about temperature
alerts.

The implementation of a real time, wireless sensor network and data logging system which will
be a sophisticated and a cheap modern technology to make monitoring more robust, effective and
feasible. WSN is a most emerging technology, widely used in many industrial applications such
as monitoring, maintenance, security and control application, specific in remote monitoring
applications etc. In forest areas, WSN are widely used for fire detection in forest, to detect
poaching of trees, for environmental monitoring, etc.

This project is based on Vibration Detection using the Internet of Things. Vibration monitoring
is the measurement of passing movements in a structure. This project involves developing an
SMS alert when unusual vibrations are detected. It includes a lab-based experiment of detecting
vibrations when the different magnitude of the force is applied. This force causes the change in
values of the sensor from its initial values. Values of acceleration can be seen on the webpage
and analysis can be done when required. Considering the maximum magnitude at which
destruction is high, the alert signal would be generated. This alert would be sent to different
mobile phones using GSM Technology. With the help of this, we can be aware of the vibrations.
Properly done, vibration monitoring can be extremely helpful in preventing damage to structures
understanding the nature of the damage and ascertaining its cause. Currently, we are using
Arduino microcontroller, accelerometer sensor, and GSM Module as our main components. The
code of the Arduino Uno microcontroller is written in C++.

LITERATURE SURVEY:
Literature survey is the documentation of a comprehensive review of the published and unpublished
work from secondary sources data in the areas of specific interest to the researcher. The library is a
rich storage base for secondary data and researchers used to spend several weeks and sometimes
months going through books, journals, newspapers, magazines, conference proceedings, doctoral
dissertations, masters theses, government publications and financial reports to find information on
their research topic. Reviewing the literature on the topic area at this time helps the researcher to
focus further interviews more meaningfully on certain aspects found to be important is the published
studies even if these had not surfaced during the earlier questioning .So the literature survey is
important for gathering the secondary data for the research which might be proved very helpful in the
research. The literature survey can be conducted for several reasons. The literature review can be in
any area of the business.

PAPER 1 Title: Anil Kulkarni, Ajay Khandare, Mandar Malve, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for
protection high cost trees in remote jungles from fire and poaching”, International Seminar on
Sandalwood: Current Trends and Future Prospects Context: Wildlife prevention has become an
important practice due to negative effects of human activities such as cutting of trees on large scale
and unregulated hunting which causes major threat to wildlife. So we are going to introduce the
project on prevention of trees and wildlife in forest. This article presents the design of a system for
detection of vibration for prevention of cutting of trees, detection of temperature for prevention of
forest fires also detection of pulses of animal for prevention wildlife using wireless sensor networks
to prevent a disaster (forest) that could lead to loss of a significant number of natural resources. In
this project, The sensing device can sense the Dept. Of CSE, CMRIT, Bengaluru - 560037
IOT Based Anti-Poaching of Trees and Protection of Forest Chapter 2 vibration, pulse, and
temperature, and then sent them over zig-bee networks to forest office. To save the transmission cost,
we also sent the GPS location information simultaneously. Here we use Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSNs).In this network numerous sensors are usually deployed on remote places, the deployment
and maintenance must be easy and scalable. Wireless sensor network is the network which consists of
large number of small nodes. Sensor nodes are great for deployment in hostile environments or over
large geographical areas.
PAPER 2 Title: Sridevi Veerasingam, Saurabh Karodi, Sapna Shukla, ”Design of Wireless Sensor
Network node on Zigbee for Temperature Monitoring” Context: In this paper a portable wireless data
logging system for temperature monitoring in real time process dynamics. Process variables (like
temperature, pressure, flow, level) vary with time in certain applications and these variations should
be recorded so that a control action can take place at a defined set point. This paper proposes a 8-bit

embedded platform for a temperature sensor node having a network interface using the 802.15.4
ZigBee protocol, that is a wireless technology developed as open global standard to address the low-
cost, low-power wireless sensor networks. The wireless temperature sensor node senses and transmits
the variations in the local temperature to the central computing unit placed within the range. The
central base station receives the data and stores it in the file and plotting the variations simultaneously

PROBLEM STATEMENT:
• Illegal logging refers to what in forestry might be called timber theft by the timber mafia.

• It refers to the harvesting, transportation, purchase or sale of timber in violation of laws.

• Selective logging almost often diseased or malformed trees.

• As a preventive measure to the above problem, we have come up with a system based on IoT that
can be used to avoid the smuggling of the trees which would stop the deforestation

OBJECTIVES OF THE PROPOSED WORK:

The main idea is to design a portable wireless sensor node which will be a part of a Wireless Sensor
Network. This system will consist of two modules one involving sensors and controller module which
will be at tree. This is an IOT based project, in case of vibration sensor and the buzzer turns on when
tree is being cut down and for temperature sensor SMS is triggered on in case of forest fire through
temperature detection.

METHODOLOGY TO BE FOLLOWED:
ARDUINO
Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino
boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn
it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell
your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so
you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring), and the Arduino Software (IDE),
based on Processing
Why Are We Using Arduino?
Thanks to its simple and accessible user experience, Arduino has been used in thousands of different
projects and applications. The Arduino software is easy-to-use for beginners, yet flexible enough for
advanced users. It runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Teachers and students use it to build low cost
scientific instruments, to prove chemistry and physics principles, or to get started with programming
and robotics.

Designers and architects build interactive prototypes, musicians and artists use it for installations and
to experiment with new musical instruments. Makers, of course, use it to build many of the projects
exhibited at the Maker Faire, for example. Arduino is a key tool to learn new things. Anyone -
children, hobbyists, artists, and programmers can start tinkering just following the step by step
instructions of a kit, or sharing ideas online with other members of the Arduino community.
• Inexpensive - Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other microcontroller
platforms. The least expensive version of the Arduino module can be assembled by hand, and even
the pre-assembled Arduino modules in less cost
• Cross-platform - The Arduino Software (IDE) runs on Windows, Macintosh OSX, and Linux
operating systems. Most microcontroller systems are limited to Windows.
• Simple, clear programming software - The Arduino Software (IDE) is easy to-use for beginners,
yet flexible enough for advanced users to take advantage of as well. For teachers, it’s conveniently
based on the Processing programming environment, so students learning to program in that
environment will be familiar with how the Arduino IDE works.
• Open source and extensible software - The Arduino software is published as open source tools,
available for extension by experienced programmers. The language can be expanded through C++
libraries, and people wanting to understand the technical details can make the leap from Arduino to
the AVR C programming language on which it’s based. Similarly, you can add AVR-C code directly
into your Arduino programs if you want to.
• Open source and extensible hardware - The plans of the Arduino boards are published under a
Creative Commons license, so experienced circuit designers can make their own version of the
module, extending it and improving it. Even relatively inexperienced users can build the breadboard

EXPECTED OUTCOME OF THE PROJECT WORK :

The main goal of this project was to detect the unusual vibrations and generate the alert when the
limit exceeds. This can be useful for emergency response planning. It is going to implement by using
both hardware and software and thus its implementation is easy and economical.
 Emergencies can come without warning at any time. Being prepared is the best way to handle
these unexpected incidents and disasters. Emergencies are the source of risk and therefore
have the probability of causing an undesired event. The emergency shelter may be needed in
some situation.
 After a disaster occurs, immediate action is taken to protect, collect and sending alert text
messages to concern authority using SMS alert.

 Contact names and phone numbers must be listed for sending alert SMS.
 Since it is done on a small scale or large it could further be implemented on real data.
 From all these analyses it is shown that the product can be used to detect minute vibrations
and it helps to take preventive measures to avoid danger. Vibration indicator using Arduino
has proved to be an economical and user-friendly product. Frequent monitoring of the system
is also not necessary. Power requirements of the system are also kept low. Precautionary
measures are required for this product and it can be easily operated by the user.
