Two kinds of humidity sensor are made, one by anodizing pure aluminum and the other by evaporation Sn02 on the anodized pure alumia film, and their electrical characteristics are investigated in various humidity atmosphere. The change of surface resistance with humidity of $AI_2O_3/AI$ and $SnO_2-AI_2O_3/Al$ sensors are found to be $1.40 \times 10^{-2}\Omega$/RH and $1.56 \times 10^{-2}\Omega$/RH, respectively. The hysteresis phenomena associated with the irreversibility of surface resistance-humidity is less in $SnO_2-AI_2O_3/Al$ sensor than in $AI_2O_3/AI$. It is concluded that $SnO_2-AI_2O_3/Al$ film can be used as humidity sensor in room temperature region because temperature dependence of surface resistance of the film is found to be as $0.56 \times 10^{-2} \Omega /^{\circ}C$ in O~ $20^{\circ}C$ range, where as $2.50 \times 10^{-2} \Omega /^{\circ}C$ in 40-$50^{\circ}C$.

Liquid crystal polymer (LCP) is a thermoplastic polymer with superior mechanical and thermal properties. In addition, its characteristics include very low water absorption rate and possibility to apply bonding process under low temperature. In this study, LCP is utilized as a packaging material for a microelectronic system (MEMS) based safety device with suggestion of a low temperature packaging process. Highly sensitive and stable capacitive type humidity sensor is fabricated to investigate hermeticity of the packaged MEMS device.

A microcomputer system consisting of 16-bit microcomputer, PCL-711S interface board, censors, and converters have been set up in order to automatically measure temperature, humidity and weight loss which are major variables of storage of apple. This system was operated by PC-LabDAS software. It has been possible to measure continuously the weight loss of Fuji apple stored in CA with the weight converter made by a miniature load cell and a strain amplifier. The temperature was checked by a k-type thermocouple and Pt 100 $\Omega$ RTD, and humidity by PQ653JAl humidity sensor. It has been possible to set up a linear equation which showers high correlationship between the estimate of temperature, weight humidity and the output of the converter in that r2 is more than 0.99. Transpiration rate, a significant factor of quality deterioration for CA storage of apple, can be estimated with these values.

In this paper, we design a pet location tracking and remote monitoring system that uses ultrasonic, temperature, humidity and illumination sensors to study behavioral patterns and habits. Using ultrasonic waves to calculate distances, a WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) was constructed to transmit data at pet's location, such as temperature, humidity and illumination, to a sink mote. Data received by the system are stored in the database in real time to trace pet's location. Interference among transmitting motes was eliminated by sequentially transmitting RF beacons using sink mote's beacon as the reference signal. Experiments were performed with the laboratory prototype of a pet animal monitoring system implemented for this study. The system analyzes locations of a pet and displays movement patterns, areas of movement, temperature, humidity and illumination using a GUI (graphical user interface).

In this paper, we try to make a pleasant environment by adjusting the fan moving by temperature and humidity in hot and humid room. To do this, we propose a fuzzy-based fan control using room temperature and humidity, collect environment data such as indoor temperature and humidity using Arduino, transmit it to Bluetooth communication, and adjust the operation time of fan according to fuzzy logic. To do this, connect a temperature and humidity sensor to the Arduino hardware, write the source code using the Arduino program on your computer, and code it in Arduino. Then, the environmental data obtained after collecting environmental data such as humidity from Arduino is transferred to the Arduino Control Module through Bluetooth communication. We use the fuzzy logic to control the time of fan operation according to environmental data such as temperature and humidity. At the end of this process, the fan will operate according to temperature and humidity to create a pleasant environment. Through this study, Arduino was simpler and easier to use than I thought, and I think it's easy to use and can be used in real life by using Arduino hardware, data acquisition, fuzzy logic, and control.

This paper deals with piezoresistive humidity sensor using polycrystalline silicon (Poly-Si ) with membrane in sensors of semiconductor. Poly-Si piezoresistors which have no temperature dependancy are deposited on silicon wafer, membrane is formed with micromachining technology, then polyimide is formed as a hygroscopic layer. Whereas the principle of conventional humidify sensors are based on the change in electrical properties of the material, the humidity induced volume change of a polyimide layer leads to a deformation of a silicon membrane in this case. This deformation is transformed into an output voltage by Poly-Si piezoresistive. Wheatstone bridge. Fabricated piezoresistive humidity sensors showed good linearity, response time, and long term stability.

In this study, we analyzed the $CH_4$and $C_4$$H_{10}$ sensitivity measurement and voltage variation using catalytic type gas sensor characteristics in catalytic combustion type gas detecter sensors. Gas detector shall operate as intended when exposed for 24 hours to air having a relative humidity of 65 percent at a temperature of $20^{\circ}c$ and humidity of 85 percent at a temperature of $40^{\circ}c$. The gas detecter sensors are to be subjected to operation for 210 days in an area that has been determined to be equivalent to a typical residential atmosphere with an air velocity of 50 cm/sec. The source of energy for a gas detector sensors employing a supplementary basic circuit is energized from a seperate source of supply direct applied voltage 2.1V, 2.2V, 2.3V. As a result, it was confirmed that the relative humidity and temperature by regression each analysis, compared to the isobutane characteristic graph and methane characteristic graph by a relative humidity of 65% and 85% at a temperature($20^{\circ}c$, $40^{\circ}c$) show a similar linear pattern on the whore.

For practical application as a humidity sensor SnO$_2$thick films devices were fabricated on the refresh type electrode by screen printing method and their material and humidity sensing properties were investigated. As a function of Sb$_{2}$/O$_{3}$ addition rate grain size was increased while porosity and initial resistance were rapidly decreased. And the area of resistance variation according to relative humidity was decreased with increasing heat treatment temperature. SnO$_2$thick film device heat treated at 95$0^{\circ}C$ and contained 0.05mole% Sb$_{2}$/O$_{3}$ had a best humidity sensing properties. From this result it is conformed that humidity sensing properties of SnO$_2$thick film devices could be approved by very small amount of Sb$_{2}$/O$_{3}$ addition.
