Ground cooling is considered to be one of the passive cooling strategies in buildings although its application is rarely found in Indonesia. Effectiveness of this strategy depend on the ground temperature profiles. Meanwhile, comprehensive data of ground temperature as a basis of design for ground cooling are still rarely found in Indonesia. This research aims to develop the measurement devices for collecting ground temperatures data and to investigate the ground temperatures in different depths (i.e., 1m, 2m, …, 9m). For measurement, an instrumentation system was developed with the main component of Arduino Mega 2560 as microcontroller. T-type thermocouples with diameter of 0, 5mm mounted in the metal cones were used as the temperature sensor and placed at the different depths. The field measurement was conducted from August to November 2019 in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. This study demonstrated that the developed instrument system had good performance both in measuring and data acquisition. Model equation was developed to predict the ground temperature at certain depth regardless ground materials and humidity level. The results indicated that the ground temperature significantly lower to 5m-depth. However, the reduction of the temperature after 5m was not significant; the deeper the ground, the temperature changes are negligible.

This paper reviews basically about Bluetooth based home automation system. It is controlled by PIC microcontroller. Home automation can be defined as the ability to perform tasks automatically and monitor or change status remotely. These include tasks such as turning off lights in the room, locking doors via smartphone, automate air condition systems and appliances which help in the kitchen. Now a days several wireless devices are available such as Bluetooth, Zigbee and GSM. Since Bluetooth is low in cost than the other two and hence is used more. In this paper we have described the methods of automating different home appliances using Bluetooth and pic microcontroller. Different sensors are involved in this system to advance and make it smarter. Sensors such as temperature sensor, liquid sensors, humidity sensor etc. can be used.

Roasting coffee manually is widely applied by coffee producers. This process takes a very long time and is less efficient in terms of productivity for industry standards. This machine  is equipped with a thermocouple sensor as a temperature sensor that will measure the temperature in the roasting cylinder, then equipped with a timer as a reminder of roasting time that ranges from 15 minutes at a temperature of 200 degrees Celsius, this machine  is also equipped with android as a timer controller on the coffee roaster machine. This machine is also equipped with a microcontroller and Bluetooth as a media transmitter and data receiver. From the test results obtained data that Bluetooth can be used for data communication between the microcontroller and Android with a distance of 30 meters in the room, and 12 meters outside the room. If it exceeds that distance, then Bluetooth will not respond back
