Development of a Real-Time Battery Monitoring solution with IoT Technology for Improved Safety and Performance in Electric Machines

The goal of the research is to demonstrate how an IoT-based battery performance monitoring system may be used for any machine, but especially for automobile batteries. By utilizing the most recent Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, this study proposes a concept for sharing battery state monitoring parameters. The battery life can be increased by taking corrective action after obtaining such metrics. This suggested framework can transmit battery parameter data to a cloud database by mounting sensors on the battery. Users can consult this database to keep track of the battery’s overall health. This will increase battery usage effectiveness and lengthen battery life. As it powers the entire system, the battery is, as we all know, the most crucial part of any device. So, it’s essential to keep an eye on the battery’s voltage level because improper or excessive charging or discharging might cause battery damage or system failure. Building an IoT-based battery monitoring system for this research project will enable us to track the battery’s charging and discharging status as well as its voltage and percentage. Battery Management System (BMS), a separate system in electric machines, keeps track of all the characteristics of the battery pack, including voltage, current, temperature, etc. It also assures the handling and safety of lithium batteries. Earlier, the Battery Monitoring System just kept track of the battery’s health and alerted the user via the machine’s battery indicator. Thanks to technological advancements, the Internet of Things (IoT) can now be utilized to remotely alert about the battery status.
