Implementation of real time factory information system using arduino and android

This paper describes the implementation of a real time factory information system which includes an Android Application along with microcontroller board to procure real time information of factory processes. The merits of AutoIO automation system over current system is, it replaces the bulkier HMI's with android phone and the interface of hardware is very compact which makes it portable and easily alterable. The aim of developing paperless factory environment is also taken care by the use of specific interface in android application. The hardware board has such a layout that alterations as per factory environment can be easily made. This makes the system more flexible in practical.
