The library of University of Lille 1 is in the transformation phase to becoming LILLIAD Learning Center Innovation by 2016. Based on strong service proposal, LILLIAD will offer a unique combination of discovery and experimentation of innovation through an event complex, an experimentarium, educational space and documentary collection. LILLIAD, as desired by University of Lille 1 and the region of Nord-Pas de Calais, will be a place to think, learn and discover about innovation. Situated in the heart of the campus, it will be accessible to companies, innovators, educational institutes and public.

The main goal of this project is to develop a user interface which allows the personnel of LILLIAD to use and maintain the deployed network of sensors. This interface should allow them to configure the sensors by uploading the required files to the main server. On the other hand, we will also be developing a reliable data communication between the sensor boards and the server through radio communication and wired communication in case of wireless network failure. A web interface will also be developed so that the users (students, guests) of LILLIAD would be able to visualize the different data (temperature, luminosity, etc.) to determine their preferred spot in the LILLIAD building.

LILLIAD is a modern building that will be equipped with huge network of sensors. These sensors will be used to capture and collect data (such as temperature, luminosity, <abbr title="Air Quality Index">AQI</abbr>, etc.) to inform the users and personnel of LILLIAD. The sensors will be connected with a Raspberrry Pi in a star topology and the latter will be connected to the local area network (LAN). The Raspberry Pi could be used not only to send data (especially logs) to the central system but also to reconfigure the sensors.

But, after having a discussion with the prof, we decided that the main server itself will configure the boards in each Raspberry Pi. So, I had to modify the initial code, by implementing a bash script where the hex file will be copied to the RPi via SCP and then it'll be configured according to the information retrieved from the database (such as the daughter board to be configured).

Later, these data will be sent over the network to the server through UDP communication where the Raspberry Pi acts as UDP client and the server listens to the port 4848 (in a multithreaded program) so that a thread is launched every time a new UDP datagram arrives at the server.

Use of d3 javascript [https://d3js.org/ D3 JS]to read the TSV file line by line and display in the form of graph for each board.

These sensors will be used to capture and collect data (such as temperature, luminosity, AQI, etc.) to inform the users and personnel of LILLIAD. The sensors will be connected with a Raspberrry Pi in a star topology and the latter will be connected to the local area network (LAN).

Reservation of time slot to roll-out configuration

Objective

To enable an administrator to reserve a time slot through a web interface (where the configuration file will be uploaded) so that the boards (daughterboard, d2b) connected to the network are configured according to the schedule.

Conception

To manage the time slots, it’s important to have a database. Thus, I had to come up with a block diagram (of a databse) that describes relationships between each block.

Database block diagram

To normalize the diagram, I had to identify the primary and foreign key and use intermediate table such as “configure” and “play_role” as described below:

Role(id[PK],roleName)
User(id[PK],name,login,password)
Play_role(roleId[FK->Role],userId[FK->User],PK[roleID,userId])
TimeSlot(startDate,startTime,endTime,PK(startDate,startTime))
Board(id,type,subId,PK(id,subId))
File(fileName[PK],fileDescription,fileChecksum)
Configuration(startDate, startTime, idUser[FK->User],fileName[FK->File],[FK(startDate, startTime)->TimeSlot],PK(startDate, startTime))
Configure(startDate, startTime,id ,subId, [FK(startDate, startTime)->Configuration], [FK(id, subId)->Board],PK(startDate,startTime, id, subId))

Implementation

To implement the database, I started with the installation of LAMP stack in Linux. Thus, the packages “apache2, php5, mysql-server php5-mysql” were installed. Then, it was time I configured the MySQL database with the relational database model conceptualized earlier.

And then, I implemented a website (as shown in figure below) where an admin would be able to upload hexadecimal configuration files and determine the timeslot of the configuration for the boards. The configuration timeslot is limited to 10pm to 6am the following day.

Configuration upload through website

Deploying configuration via network

Conception

To be able to configure equipment automatically via network, we need to have a file server where all the configuration files will be stored. Each equipment must retrieve those files and configure the boards (and the sensors) automatically.

Implementation

The configuration files will be stored in the main server (where the user will upload through a website). This server was configured to function as a SFTP server so that the files could be retrieved automatically through script.

Then, I created a bash script (implemented in Raspberry Pi) where it will make a query to the MySQL database to retrieve the file name and the it will connect to the SFTP server and download the given configuration file.

Partial architecture of the system

But, after having a discussion with the prof, we decided that the main server itself will configure the boards in each Raspberry Pi. So, I had to modify the initial code, by implementing a bash script where the hex file will be copied to the RPi via SCP and then it'll be configured according to the information retrieved from the database (such as the daughter board to be configured). The result of the configuration will be stored in a log file in the main server.

Collecting log and sensor data

Objective

  • Sensor data: To be able to retrieve data from the daughter boards and send them to the server so that they are stored for later use(graph display, etc.).
  • Log data: To notify the admin whether the configuration of the boards are carried out with success or not.

Implementation

Log data

The log data are collected at the same time the boards are configured. Log page

Sensor data

Raspberry Pi will collect the data from the daughter boards using the USB link (and if there’s any problem with the USB link,the data will be collected through serial interface). The data collected would be in the form of :

Transmission mode
( S : USART, U : USB, R : Radio)
Raspberry Pi ID Daughter board ID D2B ID Data


Later, these data will be sent over the network to the server through UDP communication where the Raspberry Pi acts as UDP client and the server listens to the port 4848 (in a multithreaded program) so that a thread is launched every time a new UDP datagram arrives at the server.

Creating a website to display sensor data

Objective

To display the values stored in a TSV file in the form of graph (for a given period, i.e.: a week) and also to display instantaneous values (current, minimum and maximum).

Implementation

Graph

Use of d3 javascript D3 JSto read the TSV file line by line and display in the form of graph for each board.

Temperature graph created with D3 JS
Instantaneous values

Use of 3 Quarks 14-segment display to visualize instantaneous values.

Instant temperature value
