Thermal comfort is typically assessed either through manual surveys or through sensor data. Automating the manual surveys and the analysis of the sensor data may reduce the risk of information loss, while entailing more accurate thermal comfort assessment. This paper presents the design and implementation of a thermal comfort monitoring system that uses Internet of Things technologies to automatically assess thermal comfort. For validation, thermal comfort indexes are computed and compared with subjectively perceived thermal sensations of building occupants, provided through a digital survey. The results show that the comfort monitoring system continuously and reliably collects and assesses thermal comfort.
