  • Abstract:
  • Automation is a set of technologies that results in operation of machines and systems without significant human intervention and achieves performance superior to manual operation. Embedded systems in general and microcontrollers in particular are playing a key role in today’s industrial automation and remote monitoring era for enhanced productivity and reduced cost. A wireless remote controller in which providing a wireless sensing solution for industries to operate essential industrial appliances, ranging from simple lightings to sophisticated electronicdevices. Various parameters in the industries can be monitored and controlled using ZigBee Communication integrated with CAN bus network. The method has been implemented in order to reduce the usage of wires used for communication purpose. In this paper sensors are used to sense the variable parameters and the CAN protocols are used for the transmission and reception purpose along with ZigBee. The data transmission rate will be higher than other wireless systems. This application is user friendly and can be achieved at a low cost
