Aim
To design windows that close when it starts raining.
Problem statement
The system should incorporate sensors to detect adverse weather conditions, such as rain or strong winds, and automatically close windows to prevent damage and maintain a comfortable indoor environment. Additionally, implement a user-friendly interface for manual control and integrate smart features, such as connectivity to weather forecasts or mobile apps, allowing users to remotely monitor and control their windows. Focus on creating a reliable and adaptable solution that promotes convenience, safety, and energy conservation in residential and commercial settings.
Material used
Input: Rain Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board
Output: Servo Motor
Battery: 5V Lithium-ion rechargeable battery
Component description
Rain sensor
The function of Rain Sensor is to detect rain
Servo Motor
Servo motor is used to open and close the window when it is raining.
TinkerSpace Brain Board
TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is tis to monitor Rain Sensor and Servo motor.
Battery
5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project
Working description
Case 1: When the rain is detected, Rain sensor turns ON and sends the signal to the Tinkerspace Brain Board. The brain board oscilates the servo motor to 0 Degree.
Case 2: When the rain is not detected, Rain sensor turns OFF and sends the signal to the Tinkerspace Brain Board. The brain board oscilates the servo motor to 90 Degree.
Circuit Design (DesignSpace)
Step 1: Connect RAIN SENSOR to input 1
Step 2: Connect SERVO MOTOR to output 1
Step 3: Connect supply and test project.
