that is entered using keypad. The Relay Module is used to switch on or off the bulb. This password circuit

breaker is capable to make sure the circuit is safe from any sabotage.

Keywords - Circuit breaker, Arduino Mega 2560, keypad matrix 3x4, LCD display.

INTRODUCTION

The project is designed to control a circuit breaker with help of a password only. A keypad is connected

to enter the password. Fatal electrical accidents to the line man are increasing during the electric line repair due

to the lack of communication between the maintenance staff and the electric substation staff [1-2]. The sabotage

of the circuit has also increased in the campus done by civilians.

METHODOLOGY

The main component in the circuit is Arduino Mega 2560. In this project 3×4 Matrix Keypad is used to

enter the password. The entered password is compared with the predefined password. To turn ON and OFF the

load, it uses relay module as a switch. When the password is entered, Arduino will send the information to the

relay to turn it ON or OFF. The buzzer sounds when the entered password is incorrect and it will ring for 1

minute. In this project, a separate password is provided to each electrical line. Activation and deactivation of the

line (circuit breaker) is indicated by the load (Light Bulbs).

Figure 1: Block diagram of the project.

RESULT AND DISCUSSION

This project is expected to make sure the safety among people especially the lineman who conducts

maintenance at buildings and to make sure that the people around cannot trespass the switch board because it is

too risky [3,4,5]. Lastly, this project will make sure the peace of people in the building because the lineman can

do the maintenance at a certain area and do not disturb others. This project presents a circuit breaker using

password. This project is designed for lecture block and hostels to ensure the safety of student. The password

will be given to the lineman and make sure the password only known among the lineman. If there are trespassing

among students, alarm will ring.

CONCLUSION

As conclusion, this system is designed to provide a new approach to secure the life of lineman. The

circuit can be tripped without any failure and load can also be controlled when required. It also can control to

turn ON/OFF the line with the line man only by entering the correct password. Now if there is any fault in

electrical line then line man will switch off the power supply to the line by entering password and comfortably

repair the electrical line, and after coming to the substation, lineman will switch on the supply to the particular

line by entering the password. It also can avoid any sabotage on the circuit of the campus.

Abstract - This paper discusses the development management system which is incorporated with Global System

for Mobile (GSM) networks. The objectives of this project are to develop and implement a smart box, which




5

uses Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) module to send the Short Message Service (SMS) to the

owner. This system can send the information of assignment inserted in the box with an additional infrared

sensor. The design is a user friendly interface where the user can easily understand the instructions of the

product. The Pigeonhole Notification System by Short Messenger System is a system created to assist UiTM

lecturers in getting notification for the presence of mails in their pigeonhole. These pigeonholes operate using

Arduino Uno, integrated (IR) Sensor, and GSM module. This system will detect each entry such as letter or

assignment inserted in the pigeonhole. All the notifications will be sent to an open source messenger called Short

Messenger System. This system starts when PIR sensors detect the presence of mails. This system will

automatically trigger a notification and directly send the notification to lecturer via SMS. This will inform the

lecturer about the inbox status. In addition, SMS can be accessed in every phone and allows UiTM lecturers to

get the notification.

Keywords - GSM module System, Arduino Microcontroller, SMS, Pigeon Hole.

INTRODUCTION

In Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), each staff and lecturer has their own pigeonhole or assignment

box in front of their office for students to submit their assignments when lecturer is not around. Unfortunately,

the current conventional pigeonhole system is unable to inform the staff and lecturer on any urgent letter and this

leads to significant delay in responding the letter. Sometimes, lecturers don‟t even check their assignment box.

The main weakness of the current system is that staffs need to check their respective pigeonholes every day. This

pigeon hole can be used by everyone, but based on FYP theme; we have specified the use of this Smart Pigeon

hole to lecturer for them to receive important document without worrying it will be lost or stolen. Thus, this

system is proposed to solve this problem. Using this system, any incoming letter or mail will be sensed by

infrared sensor. Then the notification will be sent to staff‟s mobile phones. Upon receiving the notifications,

immediate action can be taken to collect the letter.

METHODOLOGY

This project consists of two parts which is hardware and software. Hardware refers to the development

of the device including the circuit design, printed circuit board (PCB), soldering process. As for the software, it

is focused on the program development of simulation, compilation, and programming. The implementation of

project starts with installation of the hardware according to the schematic diagram. Second is the connection

between LCD and Arduino. Third is the interfacing PIR sensor and Arduino. Fourth is the connection between

Arduino and GSM module. Fifth is the connection of all hardware. The system is ready when the programme is

uploaded in Arduino Uno.


When LCD display and GSM module have a suitable coding to interface with Arduino, the

system will work well. For GSM module, we have found the most suitable one, which is easy to find

the signal. This is because signal is important to send the SMS. If the GSM module blinking signal is

not normal, then it cannot be used. This system starts when students insert their assignments, then the

IR sensor will detect the paper and interface with Arduino. Then, Arduino will function as

programmed to send the information to GSM module. Then, GSM module will send message to

lecturer or staff phone using the SIM card that have been inserted in it. This process will repeat when

paper is inserted in it.

CONCLUSION

As conclusion, it can be said that this project has meet the objectives stated earlier. Even

though this project has a lot of flaws, but still it is able to develop and implement the smart receiving

box or Smart Pigeon Hole which uses GSM module to send the notification through SMS to the

lecturer. This Smart Pigeon hole has been tested and it functions as expected.

Abstract – Common problem in the library is the users making noise. Some students do not have awareness in

library even though they know one of the main rules in library is to keep silent and quiet. There are several sign

boards that are hanged in the library but no one cares about that sign board even though they know how to read.

We all know it is not easy to advice the person who causes the noise in the library, because of that we came up

with a project called automatic sound sensor. Our prototype project could detect the sound that comes in the

library. The LCD will display the intensity of the noise level such as low or medium and then when the noise is

high the LCD will display ‟KEEP QUIET” and the LED blinks respectively.

INTRODUCTION

University students always have a lot of assignments either in group or individual. They actually prefer

doing all the assignments at library because the library is more comfortable and the space is also big so they can

make group discussion. When there are too many students in the library it will become crowded and difficult to

control all of them so it will cause some problem in the library. Students raise their voice without knowing that

they disturb other students while doing their assignments. There are not enough librarians to control all the

students that caused problem in the library because there are many students to handle and sometimes the

librarians just ignore the students that cause the problem. Many previous researches have been done to

investigate the best approach in controlling the noise level in specific area such as classroom and library [1-3].

Some of the researches use an alarm as an indicator when the sound intensity level reaches the set limit. All these

researches lead to getting a comfortable sound intensity level for better surrounding.

METHODOLOGY

This project requires the sound sensor module which is the most important thing for the circuit. The

main function is to detect the noise that crosses the limit that had been set. The normal noise for students when at

the library is about 40 until 45db so when it states the limit above the setting it will detect the noise until the

LCD displays “KEEP QUIET”. This sensor will give the data to both LCD and LED so it is really necessary in

this project to ensure the effectiveness of this project. The sound sensor module is a simple microphone on op-

amp LM393 that amplifies the sound on the environment. The program will generate the sensor value as output

in the serial monitor. It can detect sound made at the microphone. While making sound, the sensor value goes

high in the serial monitor which indicates the presence of noise or sound detected by the sound sensor. An

experiment has been done to measure the sound sensor effectiveness. A different shape of table used in this

experiment is to investigate either the sound sensor will give the similar reading value or not. Square and

rectangle table shape has a different length side by side. Also a circle table may give a different detection reading

value.


Table 1: Experımental result of Automatic Sound Sensor

Level Noise LCD LED

Normal On(display the intensity

normal) Off

Medium On(display the intensity

medium) Off

High On(display “keep quiet”) LED blink

There are 3 noise intensity levels labels: normal, medium and high. LCD will display “Intensity=

Low” when the sound sensor detects sound intensity level from 45dB to 49dB as shown in Figure 1. Medium

range ranging from 50dB to56dB while for high intensity is from 57dB and above. Based on the experimental

result from Table 1, LCD will display the intensity value for normal and medium level. But for high value, it will

display a warning sign “KEEP QUIET” and the LED blinked at once.

Figure 1: LCD display detected normal value

CONCLUSION

The automatic sound sensor will be able to help students or also the librarian in order to experience a

peace and comfortable place for students to study and do their homework without having any disturbance. This

is also will fulfill the rule of library to keep quiet and silent when at the library. It will be easier for the librarians

to do their job as the sound sensor will help them to warn the students to keep silent. With this technology, all

the libraries in this country can have this sound sensor in order to help them handle the library especially at

universities that have a lot of students and they always use the library as their usual place to do assignments or

study groups.

INTRODUCTION

Fire is dangerous to any living things and firefighting is the act of putting fire away. A fire-fighter must

be able to stop fire quickly and safely extinguish the fire, preventing heavy damage and rescue victims to safer

place from the danger. There are sometimes that firemen cannot handle high risk situation. Technology

nowadays has finally bridged the gap between firefighting and machines allowing for a more highly efficient and

effective method of firefighting [1-3]. Robot was designed to sense a fire and quickly extinguish the fire before it

rages out of control. The robots could one day work with firefighters in lessening the risk of injury to victims.

This task is alluding to the structure of robot that is competent to move and smother fire consequently. Usage of

this robot is tried with high fire temperature to assess the affectability of identifying, after that cancels the fire by

utilizing water instrument. The development and conduct of this robot is completely controlled by the

programmable Arduino UNO. All types of flag gotten by the Arduino UNO will be handled and executed to

achieve the mission of the robot. Robot will screen the work region by performing arbitrary developments; it as

an elective medium utilized by people, particularly the fire fighter to battle fire.

METHODOLOGY

The main purpose of this project is to study on how does the robot work by itself and extinguish the fire

by the command of the Arduino Uno. So, when the flame sensor detects any sign of fire, it will send the data to

the Arduino Uno and it will command the robot to move towards the target and extinguish the fire using the

water pump that has been installed. This operation is summarized in Figure 1. The robot can move in 3

directions, front, left and right depending on the location of fire. The flame sensor is used to detect the location

of fire and the motor rotates left or right based on the detection.

Figure 1: Flowchart of operation Figure 2: Circuit diagram

The expected result from our project is the firefighting robot managed to extinguish the fire using the

water pump that has been installed. It proves that the robot can help humans; especially firemen in extinguishing

fire situations. It also allows the robot o replace firemen in highly dangerous fire situations. For L293D motor

driver IC, the connection is complicated. It can‟t be looping ground pin to other ground pin for example from

ground at pin 5 to pin 12. So, each ground pin needs to directly connect to the ground on breadboard. From the

circuit diagram, voltage of 5V was set on Arduino software to run the robot. Other than that, the water pump was

replaced with LED in the circuit in Figure 2, so when we run the circuit, LED will light up and it means that the

water pump is run.

CONCLUSION

Overall, this robot will detect the fire by the IR flame sensor which will send the data to Arduino Uno

and give the command to the robot to move towards the fire and extinguish the fire by water pump that has been

installed. Through this, we can conclude that a robot can be used in place of humans reducing the risk of life of

the fire fighters. We can use them in our home, offices and more. They provide us greater efficiency to detect the

fire and it can be extinguished before becoming uncontrollable and threaten life. Hence, this robot can play a

crucial role.

Abstract - This project presents an e-key system by using IoT locking door which can be used to enhance door

security. An Arduino UNO is utilized to scan GSM modem at the door knob for automatic door lock purposes.

By using mobile phone, GSM will get message to lock or unlock the door. The proposed system controls the

door lock by using microcontroller that will read and verify the signal whether it is the right message or not to

open the door. There are high rate possibilities for their room to be involved in theft case. Hence, we came out

with an idea to create a safety lock door using internet of thing (IoT). IoT locking door is a safe way to avoid

something bad from happening frequently and also reduce time too to open the door if user forgets to lock the

door. In this project, the hardware implementation of a system is capable of controlling electronic appliances on

reception of short messaging service (SMS). The user can command the project either to lock or unlock the door

by SMS.

Recently, the telecommunication technologies become wider and more new features exist to make

human life better. A home automation system has become a trend, which gives a convenient way for users to

personalize artifacts in home using sensors, Bluetooth and android system. [1-3]. In this new era, people are

using the wireless technology system to communicate with each other. Wireless technology is known as a

communication system that is not using wire. Besides, lock is a mechanical or electronic fastening device that is

released by a physical object such as key, RFID card or others. Locks are highly important for safety and

security purposes. There are many types of door locks that have been used which are passage lock set, privacy

lock set, dummy knob, entry lock set, deadbolt, night latch, keyless lock and mortise lock [4-7]. Each of the

locks has their benefits and features. However, burglars can break normal or typical locks with ease.

METHODOLOGY

Arduino UNO R3 acts as the main program of the whole function that can receive input and trigger

output function. This programmable integrated circuit design is used to set a desired points and levels thus,

triggering the output to be processed. In the use of Arduino IDE program, the code data can be transmitted to the

circuitry through USB connector UNO R3 to the computer. The components used in this project research are

Arduino UNO R3 Board, LED (red, green), breadboard, Jumper Wires, USB Cable, GSM module, servo motor,

handphone, power bank. In the software development, two software are used which are Proteus 8.0 and Arduino

IDE. Proteus is a software simulation tool to ensure the circuit is working properly and also can be used as a

platform to design PCB Layout and research especially for microcontroller purposes.


When mobile phone sends SMS “U”, the door will get the signal and turn it open. The green LED lights

up; showing that the door is unlocked. To lock the door, user just need to type “L” and the door will

automatically be closed and LED will change to red color as summarized in Table 1. This project will help user

who always forget to lock doors when going out. It is quite risky for someone who forgets to lock door. For

example, if this project is applied at student room door, when student forgets to lock the door after leaving the

room, stealing case can occur. Hence, this project helps to create safety for students who forget to lock door.

Furthermore, they can solve this problem in less than a minute just by using their mobile phone

Table 1. Lock and unlock condition

L Lock the door Red Door closed

CONCLUSION

As the conclusion, this project IoT Locking Door system based on GSM integrates the college security

with automation. College security system for every room door provides a general security of nowadays standard

for every college. Since our proposed system is built over wireless network, it will make a big improvement in

safety and making these students to have an easy way in locking their door if they forget to lock after leaving

their room. This project is also flexible with modern life and it is easy to be installed. This is because this system

does not need a careful planning, cabling, and construction work. This project can be assured as a very helpful

way in helping users in solving the current issue when they forget to lock the door.

Abstract- For generations the conventional method used for taking attendance by teachers was always the same,

it is by tediously going through the name list one by one or by asking the student to jot down their signatures.

The method sometimes can be inefficient and time wasting. The issue of forging signature almost unavoidable

and teachers losing their attendance sheets can surprisingly be a problem too. Paper used for printing out

attendance sheet is not a long term solution for this age-old method. This project proposed a system named

Institute Online Taking Attendance (IOT-A) that uses current technology to try to solve this problem mainly

using Arduino, RFID and Internet of things (IOT). The project operates by using RFID to scan the student ID

card and using IOT to send the collected data to a website.

Keywords - RFID, Attendance, IOT, Arduino

INTRODUCTION





13

Throughout the year, several methods of attendance gathering were introduced with difference outcome. A

project from Delhi Technology aims at implementing a Bluetooth low energy based attendance management

system that emphasizes on the Bluetooth that acts as beacons that communicate with an Android application.

This application collects and stores the data from the sensors which then can be accessed by an admin for

analysis process [1]. Different organizations have started taking attendance using biometric fingerprint

authentication. This will keep track of employee's attendance but the question arises if the employee is fully

present at his/her workplace after giving attendance [2]. The project introduced an attendance system that can be

used to record the attendance of employees who are on duty outside the building [3]. The system is also

integrated with payroll system that helps accounting department to easily calculate and report the salary included

the overtime cost. The proposed attendance system used smartphone to verify the employee. The system offers

two options for doing verification which are fingerprint and voice recognition.

METHODOLOGY

Figure 1 shows the flowchart of the project respectively. Firstly, all cards have to be scanned and registered by

referring to the students‟ information. The source supplied will turn on the Arduino, IOT and RFID card scanner.

The scanner will send information detected to the main system which is the Arduino. The information of the

student and time of the card being scanned will be sent and checked. If the information received does not match

with any of registered information, the data on the scanned card will not be saved. Next, the Arduino will send

the information to the IOT to be sent to the particular website. The website will store student information, time,

date and location.

Figure 1: Flow Chart of IOT-A




14

Firstly, all cards have to be scanned and registered by referring to the students‟ information. The source supplied

will turn on the Arduino, IOT and RFID card scanner. The scanner will send any information detected to the

main system which is the Arduino. For the first swipe of the RFID card, the number of student identification and

time will be saved and marked as Time In. If the information received does not match with any of registered

information, the data on the scanned card will not be saved. The second swipe of the RFID card will save the

time it is scanned as Time Out. Another swipe of the card will have resulted in a message “Already Left” being

displayed as shown in Figure 3, informing that the student has already swiped more than twice. Simultaneously,

the Arduino will send the information to the IOT to be sent to the Thinkspeak website where it will store each

student information, time, date and location.

CONCLUSION

The project aims to provide good services to any educational organization that still cling onto the conventional

method in managing attendance. Introducing new and fresh ways to students and teachers is not a bad idea as

everyone will discover and learn something new. The approach is by far one of the easiest if not the cheapest

among any other developed system. By integrating the attendance system in the classroom or lecture hall, any

distraction and time wasting would be minimal. It is definitely a small step moving toward integrating IR 4.0 in

education but a step nonetheless.

Nowadays, there are many kinds of technology that has been created day by day. If there‟s technology,

of course there are also the users who use it in their daily life. As the technology make us to live the life easier in

the world because of the innovation that always been improvised. One of the technologies that are famous and

very common in our community and all over the world is the use of the mobile phones. In current generation, the

users of the mobile phones are at all ages including the kids around 3 years old and above.

Furthermore, even though the mobile phones can be used in all places, there are places that restrict it.

Mobile phone is prohibited among students to use in the examination hall during the examination or tests. To

prevent the student from using the mobile phones in the examination hall, the mobile phone detection might be

useful to detect the signal from the mobile phones. This can also make the students afraid to use the mobile

phones during the examination. Then, the function of this detector is to detect the signal in the range of 0.9 to 4

GHz from the active mobile phones like if there are incoming calls, text messages and maybe video calls. The

detector can detect the signal even the mobile phones are in the silent mode. Besides, it can detect the signal at

the entrance of the examination hall with the wavelength of 3.3 to 1m so, the student with the active mobile

phone can be caught or recognized [1].

METHODOLOGY

This project is designated based on block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The input is used to detect the

RF transmission at 0.9 – 4 GHz with a wavelength of 3.3 cm to 1 m of the phone signal. The main components

used in this project are CA 3130, NE 555 and the Arduino UNO. NE 555 is used to produce the buzzing sound

and the CA 3130 is used to send the signal to produce the LED light [7]. Arduino UNO is used as the power

supply for the circuit and to display the LCD. The outputs are buzzer, LED and LCD.

Figure 1: Block diagram of phone detection

RESULT AND DICUSSION

Figure 2 shows the complete circuit for this project. There are three main items which are the PCB

board, the Arduino UNO and the LCD. The PCB board contains flow of the project. This project starts with

antenna detecting the signal of mobile phones. The frequency detected is from 0.9 to 4 GHz and the wavelength

of the detector to the signal in the mobile phone is not fixed. The detector detects the frequency randomly. Then,

the buzzer beeps and the LED light up. The LCD also displayed „phone detected‟ at the same time.

In conclusion, by the existence of this mobile phone detector, the students will not be able to use the

mobile phones during the examinations. The students feel afraid to use the mobile phones because if any mobile

phones are detected, the students will get caught. In addition, this detector can detect the signal from the mobile

phones at the entrance of the examination hall. So, the signal can be detected in detail to know who brings in the

active mobile phone.

Abstract - This paper presents an inventive prototype design of attendance system which can be used by lecturers

in class. This project is designed to develop a smart attendance system by using Radio-frequency identification

(RFID). Nowadays, most of students tend to come to the class late. Besides, they also usually like to cheat their

lecturer by signing the attendance on behalf of their friends. The conventional attendance system has poor

system which might be taken for granted by students. In order to resolve these problems, the design of smart

attendance system will help to reduce all the problems occurred by conventional attendance system. This system

would help the students and also lecturer to take attendance easily by improving the function of the student card.

The students will scan their Radio-frequency identification Card (RFID) on the MIFARE RC522 RFID Kit

which will be the reader for the card. The data will be kept in the data base in the Arduino (Uno) which is a

micro-controller board based on the ATmega328. The system will set the critical time for the student who

attends the class late that will be displayed on the LCD display. After the scan is completed, there are two output

options. Record with good attendances will be taken or otherwise the record will list in red colour which means

that the students come late more than fifteen minutes. Thus, it will reduce the problems in conventional

attendance system.

INTRODUCTION

Nowadays, there are many ways of attendance system including fingerprint attendance system, scan QR codes

with the mobile app, card swiping with phone, signature attendance system and RFID based attendance system.

For the fingerprint attendance system, biometric authentication is considered the automatic identification, or

identity verification, of an individual using either a biological feature they possess or the physiological

characteristic. In practice, the process of identification and authentication is the ability to verify and confirm an

identity.

An alternative use of QR code could be for logging students in and out of class, whether it is outside of the class

students or in class students. All you would need to do is create a “Check-In” QR code and a separate “Check-

Out” QR code using the desired process, and have your students scan one entering class and the other one when

finishing class. Attendance Tracking data type QR codes does exactly that by allowing you to link your QR code

to a Google spreadsheet that records the name of the person scanning the QR code and the date and time of the

scan. For our project, smart attendance system using RFID, the first objective to be achieved is to improve the

function of the students‟ card. Secondly it could save the time of the students and lecturers and it can be

guaranteed to make the process of taking the attendance of the student more efficient [1-3].

Another problem is that lecturers may forget to bring the attendance sheet to class. While some students often

come late to class. The students can also cheat the lecturers by signing the attendance sheet for his friends. We

could solve all the problems by improving the function of the students‟ card, the time management of the

students and also to make the process of taking the attendance of the student more efficient [4-5].

METHODOLOGY

The program starts by scanning the RFID Student Card to the reader. The reader will decrypt the messages and

send to the attendance application. The attendance system will check the data and also will compare with its

database, whether the data is valid or not. When the cards have the data of the students, Arduino will send the

data to the laptop and keep the time in the database and will display them on the LCD display. The programs of

the components are all controlled by Arduino (UNO).


The conventional attendance system works by signing the attendance sheet and passing it around which

somehow will result to many possibilities in cheating among the students. However this smart system works by

scanning the RFID card to the reader for attendance. The student attendance is highly guaranteed. Technical

risks could also occur but not as much as human error in the conventional attendance system.

CONCLUSIONS

The system automatically generates the data so lecturer will know the exact time of student‟s coming to

class. This will also reduce the procedure of lecturer to give marks to student for their attendance. They only

have to check the time that the student comes to the class. Lecturer can save time by eliminating a great deal of

manual processes involved in attendance record. Lecturer can track student‟s time on the classroom more

accurately and quickly.

Abstract - Improving hand hygiene by keeping hands clean is one of the most important steps people can take to

avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others. Hands are the main pathways of germ transmission during

health care. Hand hygiene is therefore the most important measure to avoid the transmission of harmful germs

and prevent health care-associated infections. Hence, we came up with sensor dustbin project where the dustbin

could provide good service to community. The user just needs to wave their hand and the sensor will detect the

movement and the lid will automatically open up for them. This helps to prevent them from touching the lid of

the dustbin that is dirty and has germs. If the dustbin is already full of trash, the dustbin lid will automatically be

closed because there is a sensor in the dustbin that detects the level of the trash. This project will definitely give

a lot of benefit in terms of enhancing health and hygiene lifestyle. Besides, it also can improve waste

management process because the dustbin can give notification to waste collection service when the trash is full.

Keywords - Hand Hygiene, Dustbin Automation, Monitoring System, Mobile Application.

INTRODUCTION

The importance of hand antisepsis education is asserted by the World Health Organization (WHO) to reduce the

risks of global epidemics of influenza, norovirus, etc [1]. In order to prevent healthcare-associated infections,

hand hygiene is an important factor for consideration. However, healthcare provider adherence to hand hygiene

remains low [2]. In the existing systems there is no proper planning regarding collecting the garbage which

makes the city unhygienic [3]. Hence, this project introduces the concept of automatic dustbin that detects

motion to open the dustbin and automatically close after a setting time. Apart of that function, this project also

gives notification to restaurant owner or waste collection service via mobile application or web when the trash is

full.

METHODOLOGY





19

This project consists of three main parts which are Arduino Uno, servo motor and ultrasonic sensor. The

function of Arduino is the microcontroller that segments code and allows a programmer to create modular pieces

of code that perform a defined task and then return to the area of code from which the function was "called" [4].

The typical case for creating a function is when one needs to perform the same action multiple times in a

program. So, in this project Arduino will be coded based on the function of the servo motor that will move in

AC. The servo motor will move in alternate direction based on the degree that has been set. Then, the servo

motor will move the lid of the dustbin after the ultrasonic sensor scans a waved hand [5-7]. The lid of the dustbin

will mechanically move with a slide movement from left to the right to open and from right to left to close it

back.


Figure 1 shows the prototype of Waving Sensor Dustbin. The operation is started by ultrasonic sensor that will

detect any motion (like waving) towards the dustbin lid as shown in Figure 2. Arduino will process the command

and move the servo motor to ensure the lid of the dustbin is open. After 8 seconds, the lid is set to automatically

close. While the dustbin is in close state, another sensor will detect the level of the trash. If the trash is full, the

dustbin lid will automatically lock and cannot be opened. Then, a notification status will be sent via mobile

phone to the person who is responsible to clean the trash or waste collection service.

Figure 1. Prototype of Waving Sensor Dustbin

CONCLUSION

As the conclusion, this proposed dustbin can be used to prevent infections by germs while opening

dustbin lid. The system will provide notification alert to waste collection service or cafeterias owner to clean up

the trash immediately. This project can be assured as a very helpful way in keeping hands clean through

improved hand hygiene process that people can take to avoid spreading germs to others.

Abstract - This paper describes an electronics innovation which proposes a system for automation of equipment

to be operated using sensors and microcontrollers, namely room automation. In this study, during the day time,

when someone enters the room, the system will detect the body and the fan will automatically turn ON and when

nobody is in the room, the fan will be turned OFF. At night or cloudy weather, the lights will turn ON

automatically and it is set to automatically turn OFF at 12.30am and turn ON at 5.30am every day. This project

has been constructed by using IR sensor, Arduino, relay, light dependent resistor (LDR), timer and liquid crystal

display (LCD). Generally, this project involves connection of components to the microcontroller (Arduino),

programming of the Arduino and downloading the working programming to the Arduino. Once the

microcontroller has been downloaded with the programming, the constructed circuit can be tested to check the

functionality. This project has been proven working as designed. The objectives of the project are achieved

which can help to save electricity and makes daily life routine easier.

INTRODUCTION





21

Automation is a creation of technology to control the production and delivery of a service. Automation is used in

many kinds of areas such as manufacturing, transportation, utilities, defense, facilities, operations and

information technology. Room automation system is a system that maintains room daily routines such as

controlling room temperature, lighting and more. Many researches have been done to make people life easier

with a home automated system using Arduino controller [1-3]. It will be useful to elderly and also people with

disability. These project objectives are to implement a system that can save electricity, help people who is in

need and forget to turn off switches, and also provide an easier life for everyone as well as reducing human effort

in doing things.

Nowadays, daily life becomes hectic with rapid growth in communication and information technology.

Therefore, there is an urgent need for this system that will help the public to save energy and simplify human

tasks with this automated system. Based on the field of research that has been found, sometimes people forget to

turn off the switches as they are rushing everywhere. When they forget to turn off the lights or fans in the room,

this will cause electricity wastage and pose a danger to the room. So we resolved this issue by creating it based

on visitor counters.

Visitor counting tools are usually viewed in clinics or hospitals to display the turn numbers; it also commonly

used to calculate visitors in the parks and recreation areas for management purposes [4]. But in this project it is

used to calculate the number of people in the room. It will turn ON the fan whenever there are people in the

room and it will be off when the counter counts the number of person going out equal to the person entering the

room. Additional function is added as light will be turned ON during gloomy or dark surrounding.

METHODOLOGY

Figure 1 shows the flowchart of a working room automation system. Generally, development of this project can

be divided into two main parts which are hardware architecture and software development. For hardware

architecture, Arduino UNO, IR sensor, LDR sensor, real time clock (RTC), relay and LCD display has been

used. Each component has its own function in order to make the project works as designed. For software

development, this project use Proteus and Arduino software. Arduino software has been used for coding purpose

in order to program the Arduino microcontroller that will act as the brain of the whole system. While Proteus

software is used for circuit simulation purpose before the printed circuit board is printed.


Based on the analysis results from the conducted

experiments, the lamps and fans will be turned ON / OFF

due to the detection of the IR sensor and LDR sensor with

the time that has been set. Experiments have been

implemented and the results have been recorded. Table 1

tabulated the results obtained from the experiments. Based

on Table 1, light and fan will turn ON when there is person

in the room, gloomy day or dark. If there is a person in the

room and the day was bright, only fan will turn ON. Then,

if the day was bright or dark but there is no person in the

room, the fan and light will not turn ON.

As a conclusion, an automatic turning ON/OFF electrical appliance (light and fan) by replacing manual

switching method with sensors which is integrated with microcontroller is successfully designed and

constructed. This project will help in making life easier due to hectic schedule and suitable for people with

disability. Also, it can help in improving energy efficiency since it can help in saving electricity.

INTRODUCTION




23

Nowadays, technology has transformed to more advance technology with the help of Internet of things (IoT). In

this age, the amount of energy consumption and the security issue has become main problem. IoT can be a smart

solution to counter this problem. IoT is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other

items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and connectivity which enable these things to

connect, collect and exchange data [1]. To manage and control physical objects in a more intelligent and

meaningful manner and also enhance quality of life by providing cost effective living including safety, security

and entertainment is the main objective of IoT [2]. Nowadays, people can control basic electrical appliances or

door security system intelligently and automatically via the internet by using their personal mobile phones

anywhere and anytime [3-4]. The main aim of this paper is to design an automation system by applying IoT,

which is for controlling and accessing devices and appliances remotely by using mobile apps namely Blynk on

the smart phone. The system also contributes an optional approach in order to unlock the door locker that is by

entering the predefined password on the keypad provided [6].

METHODOLOGY

This project is divided into two parts which are software part and hardware part. Proteus 8.0 Professional

software has been used to create the schematic diagram, PCB layout and simulation for this project. For

hardware part system operation for locker security system that is controlled by using keypad to unlock the locker

by entering the predefined password which will be displayed on Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The

microcontroller will send the signal to the relay [5] to open the door locker. If the user keys in the correct

password, the locker will be opened. While the system operation is controlled by using mobile apps which is

Blynk. This programmable integrated circuit design is used to set a desired points and levels thus, triggering the

output to be processed. In the use of Arduino IDE program, the code data can be transmitted to the circuitry

through USB connector UNO R3 to the computer. The components used in this project research include IoT,

WiFi technology, Arduino Uno, Mobile Applications Development and Relay Switching Principle. If the output

is low, the light will turn off. It is the same for fan operation.


IoT Based Security and Access Control System is a system that can control the light, fan and locker lock easier

that shown in Figure 1. This project can also develop a system that is able to control electrical appliances by

using Internet of Things (IOT). Keypad is used to control lock and unlock locker. The correct password can

unlock the locker or open the locker automatically. The result will display on LCD statement “Correct”, if the

correct password is entered by the user. Blynk application can control locker and ON and OFF electrical

appliance such as lamp and fan.

Abstract: Landscape is an important thing to create an accent to the enviroment. Most landscapes in the world

used a real tree in the landscape to make certain place more attractive. Unfortunately, when the the real tree are

used it needs more cost and extra care. For that reason, Stand Alone PV Tree was invented. Stand Alone PV Tree

is an artificial tree that has an ability to produce electricity. This system takes benefit from the sunlight and

converts into electricity [1]. This artificial tree is similar to a small tree where the solar panels will act as leaves

and at the vase will have USB port to channel the output to the user. Stand Alone PV Tree used a stand-alone or

off grid photovoltaic system that makes this project totally isolated from the grid connected. The main objectives

are to create a functional park that not only beautiful but also a green technology of charging device at outdoor

areas. This concludes that in modern eras nowadays even electrical source can be combined with nature therefore

the pollution of nature can be avoid. Keywords: Solar Tree, stand alone, photovoltaic, battery, Off grid

INTRODUCTION Renewable energy is defined as one category energy source that comes from resources which are continually

replenished on a human timescale such as sunlight, wind, geothermal heat and etc. Then there is rise in the

renewable energy projects whether it in large-scale or in small scale. Renewable technologies are built to be

suited in human development life as nowadays human lives with sophisticated technology. Solar energy, that

comes from sunlight ray and heat from the sun, is harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as

solar photovoltaic, artificial photosynthesis etc. It is considered as one of the main sources of renewable energy

[1]. This solar technology is broadly characterized as either passive solar or active solar depending on the way

they capture, convert and distribute solar energy. Active solar techniques include the use of photovoltaic panels

and solar thermal collectors to harness the energy. Passive solar techniques include orienting a building to the

Sun, selecting materials with favourable thermal mass or light dispersing properties, and designing spaces that

naturally circulate air. “Solar power” is the common name of sunlight converted into electricity, either directly

using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) [2].

SAPVT project actually consist of two parts and that is hardware and software. For the hardware part it refers to

the development of the device or the prototype itself including the circuit construction, printed circuit board

(PCB) etching, soldering process and prototype development. As for the software part it is more focused on the

program development specifically during the circuit simulation and compilation, because the project system is

fully based on circuit. The main source of electricity is the sunlight where solar panels will collect the source and

convert it into electricity. Next, it will enter the charging process where it will first go through lithium battery

12V to store charge and from the lithium battery it will connect to USB port as its output.


This project has done two types of test. Firstly, the time taken to charge the battery 12V/1.2A and the time taken

for the battery to last long. For the time taken to charge the battery it takes mostly 8 to 9 hours to become full,

the battery will charge faster when the input power is 15V but if it is below it will charge slower. The LED in

circuit will light up as sign of the charging battery is in progress. Next, time taken for battery to last long:-

Table 1: Testing

Testing object Lasting time (hour)

I. Mobile phone 4-5

II. Mini fan 9

The source from sunlight hits the solar panel where the solar panel connection totally consists of 16.5V/0.3A.

The source to charge the battery is enough to light up the LED as signal of charging battery. As the result the

output is 4.08V/1A and the test objects are mobile phone and mini fan. Both of the objects functionally operate.

For the test involving time taken by battery to last long when there is no sunlight, it proves that any gadgets can

function when the USB cable is inserted into output port.

CONCLUSIONS Stand Alone PV Tree is a green technology with the theme of smart campus where it helps people in surrounding

campus find electricity at outdoor areas. This project proves that technology can develop into nature smoothly as

it blends with the nature and modern building where it will be placed near park or landscape campus surrounding

[4]. Therefore main objectives of this project automatically will be achieved where it encourages students to

enjoy outdoor without separating with their gadgets while able to find the electricity source in outdoor area and it

will help to raise the awareness of renewable energy and green technologies [5].

Abstract - This report described the fault detection and monitoring for street lighting system. This project is

made to automatically detect any fault that occurs in street lighting system. This project consists of LDR Sensor

Module, Relay Module, AC power supply, bulbs, an Espresso Lite V2 and a mobile application. LDR is used to

detect if any fault occurs and the AC power supply is to imitate the use of AC power supply in lighting system.

Espresso Lite V2 is used to process input and output and data sending via internet. The application is used to

receive data about the fault. By utilizing the internet, we can easily be informed if any fault occurs at any part of

lighting system anytime and anywhere. By doing this, the management can quickly and effectively fix any fault

that occurs. Citizens will be safe, and the crime rate can be decreased. This research paper showed that fault

detection and monitoring project can increase the efficiency of the management system, made citizens feel safer

and even decrease the crime rate especially involving abducting, purse snatch and raping.

INTRODUCTION The street lighting system is the one of the largest energy expenses for a city. A smart street lighting system can

reduce the corporation street lighting costs. [3] Recently, the conservation of electricity consumption and proper

maintenance lead to improvements in the latest techniques and technologies that allowed the environment and

management to be more organized. This system gives the solution to those problems that can make it detect fault

faster [2]. The fault detection for the street lighting system uses sensors and espresso. The lamp is used to

simulate street lighting. Then, the application was created to send the information to the managements. When

fault is detected, lamp will go out and the system will send the information to the management. Then, the

technician will fix the problem.

PROJECT METHODOLOGY







27

The development of this project consists of two important parts which were hardware development and software

development. Figure 1 shows the process flow chart of Fault Detection and Monitoring the Street Lighting

System. The process starts from AC power supply. The LDR will send input signal. If the LDR does not detect

light, thus the street lighting gets tripped and the signal will be sent to espresso lite v2. After the espresso lite v2

has received the signal, the application will display the output. Figure 1 shows that the system starts from AC

power supply. AC current sensor will send the signal to the Espresso Lite V2. Thus, it will go to application and

display the output stating the street lighting was tripped.

RESULT AND DISCUSSION Based on the analysis results from the experiments conducted, we can derive that LDR sensor is very accurate

and precise as detection devices for street lighting. The experiments have been executed and the results have

been recorded. Figure below shows the result which was recorded based on the experiments.

CONCLUSIONS

In conclusion, this project is to detect fault system for street lighting to increase control and management system

in street lighting. This is because, the advancement of technologies eases our work, reduce problem and

increases efficiency. So, the management can easily, swiftly and accurately detect fault. Besides that, the

management can solve the problems in street light faster.
