The "Internet of things" (IoT) has been rapidly developed and applied to various sector including automotive, manufacture, industrial, and many more. IoT also refers to connecting to another device through a network without any interactions from the human. In this project, the idea is to design and develop an irrigation system that can be control and monitor by using a mobile phone. The purpose of making this system is to automatically trigger the relay and turn on the water pump once the moisture level of the soil is low. The system will stop after reaching the desired level. The main component of the system is Node MCU. With a set of coding constructed in Arduino, the water pump can be controlled and the level of moisture can be monitored through the Blynk application (apps) in a remote area.

Motorcycle safety concerns many aspects of vehicle and equipment design as well as operator skill and training that are unique to motorcycle riding. This project focus on the development of prototype smart helmet and blind spot detection features for motorcyclist safety system. The main objective of this work is to reduce the blind spot area for motorcyclists. The developed system are capable of measure appropriate distances (~ 10 cm to 50 cm) of insecurity among motorcyclists and vehicle behind by means of ultrasonic sensors and vibrator motor. The ultrasonic sensor play a role to detect any vehicle from behind the motorcyclist and system will alert the rider through the vibrator motor, LEDs and buzzer that install at the helmet as a warning to the rider about the range of insecurity. The system employed Arduino UNO as the main processing unit to control all the connectivity components. OLED display are also connected to the Arduino UNO mounted in front of the rider for displaying the distance detected by the ultrasonic sensor. Wireless transceiver module is use to serve as a data transmitter and receiver in which transmitted data collected by ultrasonic sensor will wirelessly transmit to the helmet node which is the receiver unit. In conclusion, this developed prototype project work are able to provide better solution for motorcyclist safety features in order to reduce the probability of accidental rate.

: Lighting is an essential and insufficient lighting will make us difficult to see things clearly and performing almost all our daily activities. There will be a problem for activities like camping or hiking because there is no electricity and a camping lamp usually used to provide light. Previous product of camping lamp use only rechargeable battery as the supply and it is unconvincing to use the camping lamp for a long time as it only stays on for a few days. A camping lamp that can be charged by exposing to the sunlight can be the solution to overcome this problem. This study is enhancing the features of camping lamp using solar energy as the source to recharge the energy storage devices. There are two types of energy storage devices namely rechargeable battery and supercapacitor that function as the backup charging system. The supercapacitor harvest solar energy from the camping lamp itself so that the product can be recharge when there is no sustainable sunlight. The product will give a huge benefit to anyone who love to do outdoor activity.

Iot Based Dual Axis Solar Tracker Implementation For Polycrystalline Photovoltaic With Energy Storage

Tue, 15 Dec 2020 10:55:25 +0800

This project has been identified as IoT Based Dual Axis Solar Tracker Implementation for Polycrystalline Photovoltaic with Energy Storage that has two degrees of freedom that act as axes of rotation, both horizontal and vertical. Polycrystalline panel is great in both diffuse light and specular light and yet known for its minimal cost. This motorized servo-motor system based final year project is a self-orient the solar panel towards the maximum intensity of sunlight using Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) and hence, it will generate supply to the load. The main system that use to control the movement of motor and sense the LDR is Arduino Uno. This portable 10W solar project can be used anywhere at any time as its main concern to educate people of basic solar tracker concept aside to help supplying 5V Direct Current (DC) load. An Internet of Things (IoT) is therefore added as a feature for this project to monitor the performance of photovoltaic voltage through Blynk application in cell phone
