System for Environmental Monitoring in Protected Areas

Master's Thesis Project | Brno University of Technology (FEKT VUT)

This repository contains a demonstration of my final thesis project: an autonomous IoT system designed for long-term monitoring of acoustic and light pollution in sensitive environments.

Presentation available: DSSEM_presentation.pdf

Key Features:

  • Autonomous Operation: Powered by a solar energy harvesting system.
  • Low-Power Design: Optimized for long-term deployment in remote areas with minimal maintenance.
  • Connectivity: Real-time data transmission via NB-IoT.
  • Sensor Precision: Integrated high-sensitivity sensors for measuring environmental noise and light levels.

Tech Stack:

  • Electronics: Custom PCB designed in KiCad.
  • Firmware: Developed for MCU to handle sensor data and communication protocols.
  • Mechanical Design: Protective environmental casing designed in SolidWorks.

Questions

How big is the DSSEM PCB v02 PCB?

It measures 95.5 × 70 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the DSSEM PCB v02 use?

134 parts, built around the BH1750FVI-TR, LTR-390UV-01, BC660K-GL and BQ25798RQMR. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the DSSEM PCB v02 KiCad files?

From the steinerdomajz/DSSEM repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/source/DSSEM_PCB_v02.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/source/DSSEM_PCB_v02.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the DSSEM PCB v02 design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask steinerdomajz before reusing the design.
