The idea of using sun to do laundry has been around thousands of years. Everyone had their own individual hanger outside their house to do laundry process and storage as rain water was collected for domestic use. Most of people will face difficulty to pick up hang clothes when it comes to unforeseen circumstances such as rainy day. For example, when they were so busy doing other important works or fall asleep, suddenly it is rainy and the clothes will get wet. The objectives of this project is to develop and simulate rain alarm using Arduino microcontroller and create a circuit for better and easier flow of daily activity. This project use water sensor as input to detect water. Then, using Arduino UNO as microcontroller to control LED and buzzer as output to notify or alert the user when the sensor sense water while DC motor convert electrical power into mechanical power for cover and uncover all the clothes. This project expected to change the life of humanity to be a better life and modern.
