Abstract :Volcanic areas in Ecuador are certainly a topic that concerns the population. National and international institutes have carried out constant monitoring to be aware of the volcanic activity. Thus, stationary monitoring equipment was installed along the volcanic belt. However, this control stations cannot really cover the whole surface. The following study describes the design of a wireless mobile equipment which constantly measures the temperature. The temperature is sent to the control station using ZigBee technology and reliable sensors. The half-duplex communication allows the user to manipulate the mobile system and observe the measured temperature in the same controller.Keywords : Temperature monitoring, mobile wireless technology, ZigBee.
