To create a Smart Device (IOT Device) using Arduino UNO R3 Microcontroller
- Arduino UNO R3 Microcontroller
- Ultrasonic sensor
- Mini Gear Servo Motor
- 9V Battery
- 9V Battery connector
- Connecting Jumper Wires
Arduino UNO is a microcontroller board, it is low cost and easily programmable microcontroller board that can be integrated in alot of Iot and electronic projects such as
- Light on/off when TV is turned on
- Temperature Monitoring
- Obstacle detection
- Autoamted Plant watering system
- Simple Incubator
and many more.....
I have created a Smart IOT device which is based on object detection using an Ultrasonic module
The dustbin will detect objects usin the ultrasonic module and triggee the servo motor which will then cause the lid of the dustbin to open
This is a small representation of how IOT devices work
Vcc -> 5V (for Power supply)
Trig -> Pin 9
Echo -> Pin 8
Gnd -> Gnd
Red Wire -> 3.3V (for power supply)
Yellow wire -> Pin 7
Gnd -> Gnd
