The application and utilization of technology to measure the level of comfort in mass-produced vehicles, including military vehicles, is constantly evolving. Currently, the testing of comfort parameters is carried out manually through human-driven test drives. Thus, the range of variability in measurements is extensive as it depends on the subjective experiential indications of experts. This research utilizes KY-037 sensor to measure noise level and BME280 sensor fusion to detect temperature, air pressure, humidity, and altitude. These parameters have a significant impact on passenger comfort inside the passenger cabin of military vehicles. This project included involves the development of LoRa-based communication medium using RFM95W technology. The system has extensive performance testing inside the passenger cabin of a military vehicle on various test area tracks. The test results indicate that the system is capable of accurately reading the KY-037 sensor, with a range of 80 - 141 dB depending on the tracks. The BME280 sensor consistently measures a temperature of 36,98°C, altitude readings ranging from 667-677 meter above sea level, maintaining a stable air pressure of 955.35 hPa, and measuring the lowest humidity level in the vehicle cabin at 24.34%. The LoRa technology possesses remarkable to extend the communication range, even in challenging environments, reaching distances over 2 kilometers. The response time for data sent in web-based applications consistently remains below 1 second. Thus, this system can assist experts in enhancing cabin passenger comfort standards by narrowing the range and making it more measurable.
