Description
Summary:People are often busy with work, family, and other aspects of life, which can make it easy to forget simple things like turning off lights and fans before going to bed or leaving the house. This oversight can lead to higher electricity bills. Additionally, with Malaysia's frequent rain seasons, a common issue is leaving clothes outside during sudden weather changes. The Integrated Home Control Solution is designed to effectively tackle two key challenges. Firstly, it enables remote control and monitoring of lights and fans through the Blynk application, facilitating efficient energy management. Secondly, the system features an automated pulley clothesline equipped with a rain sensor, an indispensable tool in areas prone to sudden rainfall, such as Malaysia. This innovative feature aids in safeguarding clothes from unexpected rain. In this project, rain sensors and Light Dependent Resistors (LDR) are used as inputs, while the outputs include LEDs (lights), stepper motors, and fans. The rain sensors detect rain, and the LDRs measure light levels. To create and control this system, software platforms like Proteus, Blynk, and Arduino IDE are utilized. The LEDs indicate the system's status, the stepper motors manage the automated clothesline's movement, and the fans contribute to air circulation.
