Wireless sensor network technology is considered as one of the modern technologies that are used in a lot of areas to measure physical, chemical or environmental variables because of their low of cost and high efficiency in data transmission. This project aims to design a wireless sensor network that will be used to measure pressure or level of Oxygen gas inside the Oxygen tanks that are found in different places in hospitals in order to overcome the problem of the manual checking of tanks level, which may cause a lot of problems because of the lack of accuracy measurement and the absence of a continuous monitoring from the control room. The designing of this project will be based on the concept of multi-hop wireless sensor network using XBee modules. XCTU software will be used to update and configure XBee modules and PROCESSING software will be used to develop a program that reads data from XBee and show it in interactive way on the screen.
