Proximity-Activated Door Opener

Aim

The aim of this project is to Design a door opener that responds to approaching users by automatically opening the door, enhancing convenience and accessibility.

Problem statement

The system should use sensors or technology such as RFID, Bluetooth, or infrared to identify and authenticate users, automatically unlocking the door when they are within a specified range. Address challenges such as secure authentication, responsiveness, and adaptability to different door types. Develop a proximity-activated door opener solution that enhances convenience, security, and hygiene by minimizing physical contact with doors in various environments, such as offices, homes, or public spaces.

Material used

Input: 2 IR Proximity Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board

Battery: 5V Lithium-ion rechargeable battery

Component description
IR Proximity sensor

The function ofI R Proximity Sensor is to detect 

 

Servo Motor

Servo motor is used to Open and close the door.

TinkerSpace Brain Board

TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor Ultrasonic Sensors and Servo Motor.

Battery

5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project

Working description

Case 1:When the object is detected in one IR Proximity Sensor, IR Proximity sensor 1 turns ON, IR Proximity sensor 2 turns OFF and sends the signal to Servo motor to oscilate 90Degree(Opens Door).

Case 2:When the object is detected in another IR Proximity Sensor, IR Proximity sensor 1 turns ON, IR Proximity sensor 2 turns OFF and sends the signal to Servo motor to oscilate 0Degree(close Door).

Circuit Design (DesignSpace)

Step 1: Connect  IR PROXIMITY SENSOR to input 1

Step 2: Connect Servo Motor to output 1

Step 3: Connect supply and test project.
