detected likewise the door sensor node
incorporates a magnetic read switch and
the weather node features a BME 680
sensor the collected data from these
nodes is transmitted to the Gateway and
can be conveniently viewed on a
dashboard number 12 actar faced issues
with his 3D printer movements multiple
times when he wasn't wasn't around or
wasn't watching it as his printer didn't
have Wi-Fi he got no warning message
when the printer's axis got shifted or
jammed this resulted in faulty printed
parts to solve this he created a budget
friendly iot
device using a Raspberry Pi Pico and a
husky lens AI camera recognizing axis
movements the device tracks the X Y and
Z
axes the Pico communicates the detected
movements to a telegram bot providing
him with realtime updates and
notifications of potential malfunctions
related to the printer's
movements number 11 instead of relying
on manually controlled circuit breakers
cyberlab replaced them with smart
circuit breakers that provide a better
way to control his home appliances
through voice commands or a smartphone
application
Alisa
okay as the place where he lives remains
covered in snow most of the time
checking the drainage Well's water level
manually is not possible every
day the smart dashboard allows him to
track the daily water consumption and
make sure that the pump is working
properly he installed an additional
switch for the hot water boiler because
these Breakers come with a safety
feature that automatically shuts them
down if the user forgets to turn them
off after a set
period this ensures added safety and
peace of mind number 10 in this project
Giovani modified a remote control button
to open and close the front door of his
house instead of relying on a button
this time he decided to control the gate
using his
smartphone he made a controller for this
but while testing he found the signal
strength was weak so he extended the
range using a second circuit when you
press a button on the app the wi Wi-Fi
connected smart relay in the house gets
activated this smart relay then sends a
signal to the relay in the garage
prompting it to activate the garage gate
remote As a result the gate opens number
nine next on the list we have a smart
exhaust fan system powered by the esp32
microcontroller it uses an mq2 gas
sensor and the dht11 humidity
temperature sensor to keep track of gas
levels temperature and
humidity all this data is seamlessly
transmitted to the dynamic blink
dashboard providing you with real-time
insights if the system detects too much
gas levels the fan turns on to clear the
air and keep things safe and clean
moreover you can control the fan
manually using the dashboard offering
personalized control based on individual
needs or
preferences Altium is a PCB design
software that is both powerful and easy

description for more
details number eight if you're tired of
just getting reminders on your phone and
want something cooler to track your up
coming events then this led progress bar
is the perfect project for you all you
need are a Raspberry Pi Pico W and a
colorful 5volt addressable LED strip as
you tackle your tasks this smart LED bar
keeps you updated on how much of the
workday has already sailed by moreover
it changes colors to match your schedule
helping you know when it's time to
switch tasks and guess what when it's
time to finish the LED bar puts on a
beautiful rainbow light adding a splash
of Joy To Your Daily
Grind number seven next we have a chat
GPT based Voice assistance system built
on a custom PCB the project requires two
ESP 32 modules a proximity sensor serves
as a switch and allows you to give
commands upon accepting a gesture input
the voice commands are transmitted to
Google Cloud which converts them to text
and then sends them to an open I server
chant GPT processes the query and
generates a response this text response
is subsequently converted back into
voice audible through a
speaker I'm an AI digital assistant and
do not have a name number six next we
have a simple yet useful project a
circuit to monitor the temperature of
your
fridge to make this project you will
need an ESP microcontroller a
temperature sensor some some resistors
capacitors and a bit of soldering
skills the circuit runs on a 600
milliamp hour battery and takes separate
temperature readings of the fridge and
freezer
compartment this data gets updated on a
web server in real time in addition to
this the page also displays the battery
voltage and percentage this feature
notifies you to charge the battery
before it depletes
completely number five Russell has made
a special Beacon that lights up when
he's just 10 minutes away from home to
Signal the perfect time for a fresh cup
of
tea it consists of two models the first
sign consists of a small frame with LEDs
creating a sparkling effect the message
is cut out of paper and glued to fabric
using a cry cut machine while the
spherical ball consists of a simple
neopixel LED
ring the models can be controlled
together or separately using the W LED
app
but he relied on an ift web hook that
tracks his location and when he is in a
certain range it lights up the
beacon number four in order to remotely
control his telescope's cooling system
Michael relied on a home
assistant to make it work he put two
temperature sensors in the
telescope the first one is placed inside
the mirror while the other lies outside
sensing the ambient temperature
the home assistant Compares both the
temperature values and based on the
difference it then turns the cooling
system on and
off the smart dashboard makes it easy to
track the performance of the cooling
system and make certain changes from
anywhere number three though you can
unlock a door using keys why not make it
smart and control it with a
smartphone in this project Maxim used a
server mode motor that can open the door
lock either using an HTTP request mqtt
control or any other smart
dashboard the microcontroller is powered
by an AC todc converter that is attached
to the top of the
door the lock can also be opened either
using a physical push button or using
keys just in case of an
emergency number two unlike other DIY
weather stations that only check
temperature pressure and humidity
giovan's creation goes the extra
mile his weather station not only
monitors those Basics but also keeps
tabs on wind speed direction and
rainfall amount what's even cooler is
that Giovani didn't buy any fancy
gadgets he crafted his own wind speed
meter wind direction indicator and rain
gauge right in his
lab he set them up on his roof for
accurate readings the data from the
sensor can be seen on a local display
LCD or a web
server so whether you're at home or away
you can easily check the weather updates
simple
right number one now let's discuss a
complete DIY mechanim wheel robot
car this little Wonder not only rolls
around on cool Wheels but also comes
with a Nifty mechanical arm that can
effortlessly lift light to moderate
weight objects how cool is that to make
this project you'll need a 3D printer
because the entire body of the robot is
crafted from 3D printed
Parts the wheels are driven by DC motors
giving a robot its Sleek moves while the
mechanical arm is all about Precision
thanks to the servo Motors boasting a
whopping 4 degrees of
freedom but here's the best part SM you
don't need a separate controller to run
this whip out your smartphone open the
app and you're in command of this
car so these were some of the
interesting iot projects that you can
