In current scenario there is no security for the students and parents find difficulty to monitor the safety of the children when they move to school. Children may hold wrong bus or they may get down at wrong stop they may left behind the school or in the bus or they might simply skip the classes. In schools attendance were taken manually that kills the time for the teacher to call each student name and mark the attendance This project is very useful for the schools administrator to keep track of each and every student and look after their security. The main purpose of this project is to give the security for the students and to give the information for their parents to reduce their work and to reduce the burden involved in day-to-day activity of the teacher by taking the attendance. This software helps in reduce the hacking of the password and it is stored in the encrypted form. This development provides user friendliness. The main benefit of this project is for the administrator and also for the parents to reduce their burden. The project can be accessed by the authenticated users only and its dashboard helps the administrator to know about the student who is present for the class. It will notify the date and time of the student got into the bus so that it will helps the parents to know about the student information. Each module is made up of several supportive models performing various operations.

III. PROPOSED SOLUTION
This section describes about the coal mine
monitoring and control system and all the
requirements both software and hardware is
described briefly in this section. It consists of three
parts. First one is coal dumping yard data
gathering through sensors. Second one is position
of the conveyer’s data gathering through sensors.
Third one is real time data collected and monitored
in mobile phone through Internet.
The proposed solution block diagram is shown
below:
Figure1: Overall System Architecture
A. Architecture of coal dumping yard section:
As shown in figure 1 the coal supply is the
dumping yard section. In this coal is collected and
is supplied as per the demand. The coal can
withstand the temperature of 45 degree Celsius. If
it exceeds the coal will automatically burns and the
raw material will get wasted. And also the
industrial safety is taken in to an account, the
temperature of the coal dumping yard needs to be
get sensed, if it exceeds the temperature,
automatically the water spreader is activated and
the temperature is reduced. For this sensor
implementation the temperature sensor is
interfaced to ESP8266 and with the help of Think
speak the continuous monitoring and control can
be done by anywhere, anytime.
Figure 2: Proposed System Architecture
B. Conveyors section:
Second the position of the conveyors is
considered as most important issues, where in the
coal industry the raw material is generated in an
area and the power is generated in another area. In
this case the coal moved through conveyors to the
power plant. If its position got changed, then it
causes in production delay. In order to avoid this
PIR sensor is placed and it is connected to
ESP8266.
C. Controlling Section:
Each sensor in the industry is connected to the
ESP8266. As a prototype three sensors are taken

and it is connected to ESP8266. Through this the
IP is generated and this is shared to Thing speak.
Thing speak is the online tool to develop the IOT.
Here the IP is shared and channels are created in
thing speak and also templates can be created as
user defined. Then it can be accessed via smart
phone through internet. Through this the
continuous monitoring and controlling can be
done.
IV. PROTO TYPE
The prototype is designed via Arduino. The
sensors named DHT22 Digital sensor, PIR sensor
are connected to Arduino since it has more GPIO
pins. Then the ESP8266 is connected to the
Arduino to get single IP for all the sensors.
Although the ESP8266 is capable of connecting
the sensors and it requires a dedicated 3.3v. This
can be done by FD232 serial converter. But as a
prototype the Arduino is consider being more
comfortable to connect the dedicated
voltage.ESP8266 has many versions with different
firmware. In this project ESP-01 is used and it has
totally 8 pins. The pin ESP-01 is shown below in
figure 3.
Figure 3: ESP-01
The connection between ESP-01 and Arduino is
shown below in figure 4. Arduino is an open source
microcontroller board. Here it used to read sensors
and that data is communicated through ESP to
Thing speak. By sharing the API of Thing speak,
the sensed data can be monitored and controlled
through smart phones.
ESP8266 ESP-01 Arduino UNO
TX Pin 1
RX Pin 0
CH_PD 3.3V
RST Unwired
VCC 3.3V
GND GND
GPIO2 Unwired
GPIO0 Unwired
Coming to the sensors, the DHT 22 has four pins,
Vcc, Data, NC, GND. It is a digital temperature and
humidity sensor with good accuracy. PIR sensors
allow you to sense motion, almost always used to
detect whether a human has moved in or out of the
sensors range. They are small, inexpensive,
low-power, easy to use and don't wear out. PIRs are
basically made of a pyro electric sensor (which you
can see above as the round metal can with a
rectangular crystal in the center), which can detect
levels of infrared radiation. Everything emits some
low level radiation, and the hotter something is, the
more radiation is emitted.
V. IMPLEMENTATION
We had tested our prototype with two sensors
temperature and humidity and PIR sensor because
thinking in mind about the cost factor. Here the
Arduino is having both 5v and 3.3v.So the
connecting the ESP to the Arduino is comfortable.
The Prototype result of Arduino with ESP is shown
in figure 5.
Figure 5: Arduino with ESP 01
The open-source Arduino Software (IDE) makes
it easy to write code and upload it to the board.
Here we are using the version of Arduino 1.06 for
the programming the libraries are more important.
We can program ESP8266 native code or use
ESP8266 Node MCU. But there is a better way.
Recently there was released ESP8266 Arduino IDE.
We can program ESP8266 directly in Arduino IDE.
That’s how we will get Arduino simplicity and
power of ESP8266. The DHT 22 sensor has a high
accuracy with data pin. The sensed data is send to
Arduino and it is getting communicated through a
SoC called ESP 01.This will have an unique IP
address, and this is updated to the website that
can be accessed by a smart phone. The prototype
connection diagram of sensor is shown below in
figure 7.

Figure 6: Firmware version
To operate with this the firmware in ESP 01 is
playing a major role. There are plenty of firmwares
in market, but the compatibility is important. This
is shown in figure 6 Espressif released a software
development kit (SDK) that allowed the chip to be
programmed, removing the need for a separate
microcontroller. Since then, there have been many
official SDK releases from Espressif; Espressif
maintains two versions of the SDK — one that is
based on RTOS and the other based on callbacks.
Figure 7: Sensor interfacing
By sharing the API to the code, the program will
get accessed to the template. The sensed data is
been shown as a simulation result in figure 8.
Figure 8: Simulation result
VI. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
In this project we tested the prototype and the
results are shown. Thus the implementations of
low power wireless sensor node for coal mine is
done and it is been monitored and controlled by the
template created by the think speak and it can be
accessed by the smart phone.
In future the security can be more ensured, but it
technologies depend, since it uses internet. The
light weight gateways can be designed with more
effective manner.
