In recent years there is a vast technology improvements in industrial control rooms for monitoring the entire field of Industrial plants. High end PLC's are being implemented for controlling the entire process of fields. But a problem is that even though automation takes the complete control of total plants few authentication and manual actions are needed from user side for completing the control action. Hence there is a must situation for users presence at all times in the control room for taking some timely needed control actions. Due to the static nature of control room environment, the user should always be static to monitor the process. The proposed system approach provides a good solution to this problem. The whole control room environment is additionally implemented in the arduino-android platform and the same is communicated to the process through Wi-Fi / Bluetooth / GPRS. Now the user in control room can be mobile at anytime, anywhere to monitor and control the whole plant. An arduino uno board is used here for acquiring process control parameters from the sensors and transmitting it via a Bluetooth module to an android device. Hence the parameter values can be monitored and stored simultaneously.
