Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are increasingly present in applications of daily life, such as health care, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. According to the definition of a smart city, it requires connectivity to exchange information based on various technologies such as the WSN for the Internet of Things. Therefore, a 6LoWPAN is a type of hybrid network connected to the Internet through devices with limited resources using IPv6. For that reason, a 6LoWPAN becomes key in the implementation of a WSN. Due to the situation derived from COVID-19, the sanitary measures established indoor will allow the development of applications such as the one presented in this work, which establishes temperature monitoring in a university laboratory. The focus of this project is based on analyze of data transmission in a 6LoWPAN implemented through the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. The devices used correspond to the Texas Instruments CC2650stk and a CC2531 packet sniffer. The monitored data is stored in a database for graphical presentation.
