Embedded system devices are used to detect changes in the environment through sensors and other hardware and respond to human commands. The sensors used to detect changes in the environment, in the already existing systems are fixed in a certain place and cannot be moved easily. A small device is built which can be used for movement of the sensors to different locations effortlessly. It can be used in industries to mount the temperature sensors and move them to remote locations to detect changes in the environment. The data collected by the sensors can further be used for analysis. This is achieved using the microcontroller (ATmega8) which uses the embedded C program for control of the device and the interface. LM35 is the temperature sensor used to detect the temperature. L293D is the IC used for the stepper motor and microcontroller interface. The device controlled by the user moves to different locations senses temperature. If the temperature is above a given threshold, the output is given as buzzer. An algorithm is written to combine the movement, temperature measurement and the buzzer.
