Abstract
By embedding computational
capabilities in all kinds of objects and living
beings, it will be possible to provide a
qualitative and quantitative leap in several
sectors: healthcare, logistics, domestics,
entertainment, and so on. Due to the drastic Draw back

 B. Zigbee C. Grid

The term grid usually refers to a network,

and should not be taken to imply a
particular physical layout or breadth. Grid
may also be used to refer to an entire
electrical network, a regional transmission
network or may be used to describe a sub
network such as a local utility's
transmission grid or distribution grid.

It is the wireless device for transmitting and Schematic representation of project

receiving purpose or simply it called as

Transceiver. Zigbee is based on the
IEEE802.15.4 protocol. The range of the
Zigbee is covered as 100m. It range is 10
times better than bluetooth device so it can
be more preferable one in wireless device.
The data rate is very low for transmission

III. SOFTWARE DETAILS

Keil

Keil compiler is a software used where

the machine language code is written
and compiled. After compilation, the
machine source code is converted into
hex code which is to be dumped into the
microcontroller for further processing.
Keil compiler also supports C language
code.

II. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

The performance evaluation is divided into

two parts: ZigBee mesh floor (horizontal
