Internet of Things

The term internet of things was coined only in 2008, but within the next 10 years (in 2018) there were already more than 7 billion IoT devices connected to the internet, and the number is set to increase exponentially. IoT has enabled multiple inter-connected devices to sense and transfer data wirelessly over the internet to provide vital data and control in areas like Home automation, Location tracking, Asset monitoring etc..

This section provides a wide variety of IoT Projects with complete resources including circuit diagram and code, allowing you to build and test your own IoT applications. It also discusses the recent IoT Technology Trends and keeps you updated with the latest IoT News.

Home Automation has always been inspiring projects for most of us. Toggling an AC load from the comfort of our chairs or bed of any room without reaching for the switch in another room sounds cool doesn’t it!!, Thanks to the ESP8266 modules this idea can be easily implemented with subtle knowledge on electronics.

In this project let us learn…

In this DIY session we are building a web controlled surveillance robotic car using raspberry pi and a webcam. This could be a useful and inexpensive security and spy tool, which have many configurable options and can be built in few hours. In this IoT Project, we are mainly using Raspberry Pi, USB web camera and two DC motor with Robot chassis to build this Robotic car…

You might have heard about Smart Refrigerator which can automatically order the food items which are running low in refrigerator, so inspiring from that we are here building a Raspberry Pi Smart Container using Load Cell and HX711 Weight Sensor. This Smart Container can tell you about its status like whether it is full or empty, by sending a mail to your Email ID. We…

Today, we are going to build an Arduino weight machine by interfacing a Load Cell and an HX711 Weight Sensor with Arduino. We have seen weight machines at many shops, where the machine displays the weight just by placing an item on the weighing platform. So here we are building the same weighing machine by using Arduino and Load cells, having a capacity of measuring up to…

Security is major concern now days and there are lot of technologies present today to keep your place secure and monitored. CCTV cameras are very useful to keep an eye on your house or office.  Although prices of these types of cameras have been reduced significantly since their beginning but still IP cameras, which have ability to send and receive the date over the…

In this post we are going to control a Servo Motor using a web browser with the help of Arduino and Wi-Fi module ESP8266. The ESP8266 will establish a connection between the servo and the web browser through the IP address and then by moving the Slider on the web page, the servo will move accordingly. Even by setting Port Forwarding in your router, you can control the Servo…

In this project we are going to make a Heart Beat Detection and Monitoring System using Arduino that will detect the heart beat using the Pulse Sensor and will show the readings in BPM (Beats Per Minute) on the LCD connected to it. It will also send the readings to ThingSpeak server using the Wi-Fi module ESP8266, so that Heart Beats can be monitored from anywhere in the…

In this project, we are going to make an IoT Based Air Pollution Monitoring System in which we will monitor the Air Quality over a webserver using internet and will trigger a alarm when the air quality goes down beyond a certain level, meaning when there are sufficient amount of harmful gases are present in the air like CO2, smoke, alcohol, benzene and NH3. It will display…

In the world of Internet of Things (IoT) when we have all the technologies to revolutionize our life, it's a great idea to develop a system which can be controlled and monitored from anywhere.  There are many types of good security systems and cameras out there for home security but they are much expensive so today we will build a low cost simple Raspberry Pi based…

In this DIY, we are going to make an IOT based smart garbage alert system using Arduino uno that will tell us that whether the trash can is empty or full through the web server, and you can know the status of your ‘Trash Can’ or 'Garbage' from anywhere in the world over the Internet. It will be very useful and can be installed in the Trash Cans at public places as well as at…

We all are familiar with the Wireless Notice Board as we have already built Wireless Notice Board using GSM and Arduino. But today we are going one step ahead and instead of using GSM as wireless medium, this time we are using Internet to wirelessly send the message from Web Browser to the LCD which is connected to Raspberry Pi. As message is sent through the web browser, so…

Microwave is a great invention and now it’s become the part of our everyday life. Nathan Broadbent have taken the Microwave to a completely new level and made it a high end IoT based device. Now you can operate the Microwave with your voice, or with your iPad or even from the Internet. Nathan hacked the Microwave very intelligently, replaced its touch pad circuitry and added…
