“Automata (IIITA - IoT) , A Smart Campus Initiative To Save Electricity”
“Automata (IIITA - IoT) , A Smart Campus Initiative To Save Electricity” is an IoT solution to save electricity in our campus buildings . We aim to provide an easy to use interface to control the lights and fans in our campus . We shall have three major components in our project namely The Server , Android Mobile Application and Hardware . There are two modes in which our IoT model will operate :
-
Automatic Mode : The IoT will work purely based on the percept sequence it receives from its sensors .
-
Manual Control Mode : The operator will have to control the lights and fans manually from the app’s control panel .
We have used ESP8266 and raspberry pi to build a complete sensor network. The raspberry pi runs an API server which connects it to our android mobile application.The android mobile application presents user with a user friendly UI and provides full control over their appliances . The user can view the current state of the room . In Our mobile application we have two major sections namely:
- Control Center
In this section of the app we will provided the manual control to the operator to turn on / off the lights and fans .
- Monitor
In this section of the app we will display the data collected from the sensors in readable format to our operator / user .
