Development of Water Quality Measurement Application on Android Device

Abstract

A water quality measurement application on smart devices was developed. The smart devices such as smart phones, tablets are available as water quality measurement sensor because they have a camera, location sensor (GPS) and network devices. The devices are widely spread on the world, that’s why researcher can get water quality data around the world without traveling target areas. An application software is required to equip these functions on the devices. The Android application was developed in the study because the Android devices dominate the smart device market on the world. The colorimetry method was used as a simple and easy observation method for water quality because the target of observer by the devices is general people. The study introduces the detecting method of fluorine concentration by the smart device and by an artificial intelligence (AI) method.
