Abstract :
The library is a place that is used as a study and reading room, so that a
comfortable place is needed from disturbances in the library building. Based on the
decision of the Minister of Environment in 1996, the standard noise for library
environments ranged from 45 to 55 dB. but in fact there is often a commotion
caused by visitors. in this study a noise level detection system was created where
the noise detection system is expected to be used as a media for comfort control in
the library room.
The noise level detector uses a sound sensor that is connected to
Arduino.The system will be equipped with a warning system in the form of Buzzer
and Warning Text sounds that will be displayed on the P10 LED Panel and
equipped with Internet of Things technology that allows the supervisor or guard of
the library to monitor the noise of the library room real time via Web Server.
The test results show that this tool can detect noise levels in the range of
at least 41 dB and a maximum of 69 dB with a deviation of 0.6 and an average error
of 1.0%. the average sound intensity measured in the library room is 56.24 dB. The
average percentage of the success of the system against Buzzer and Warning text
warnings is equal to 97.3% and the average percentage of the success of sending
data to the web server in the noise level detector is 95%.
