Designing a Solar-Powered, Cost-Effective Plastic Bottle Collection Device with Integrated Sensors using Arduino
Designing a Solar-Powered, Cost-Effective Plastic Bottle Collection Device with Integrated Sensors and Vending Machine Functionality using Arduino
This project combines sustainable innovation with the power of Arduino technology to create a solar-powered, cost-effective plastic bottle collection device. Equipped with integrated sensors, the device efficiently detects and collects plastic bottles while also functioning as a vending machine. By integrating recycling and vending capabilities, this project offers a practical solution for promoting environmental sustainability and encouraging recycling habits.

Here are some pictures of the project I developed. For security reasons, detailed project information is not available on my website. If you're interested in learning more, I'd be happy to discuss and showcase the project in detail during an interview.
Project 2
Experiment by : Nafis
A Smart water Bottle
This project is a smart water bottle designed to assist elderly individuals, particularly those with dementia, who may forget to drink water regularly. The system helps ensure hydration by:
Timed Reminders: If the user doesn’t drink water within a set interval, the bottle sounds an alarm to remind them.
SMS Alerts: Additionally, an SMS reminder is sent to their mobile phone, which can be more effective than an audible alarm alone.
Intake Detection: If the person drinks water, the system resets the reminder, avoiding unnecessary alerts.
This project aims to support caregivers and encourage healthier routines for those who may struggle to remember essential daily tasks like drinking water.
Project 3
Trial for a smart house: by Nafis
Smart Home and IoT System with Raspberry Pi and OpenHABian
This project explores smart home automation using the OpenHABian platform on Raspberry Pi, aimed at creating a fully connected, remote-controllable home environment. Key aspects include:
Device Integration: Utilized relays, temperature sensors, and indicator lights to automate and monitor home systems.
OpenHABian Platform: Focused on learning and implementing channel-item binding to link physical devices with virtual control items, enabling seamless communication between them.
Remote Access: The system can be controlled over the internet, allowing users to manage home functions from anywhere, enhancing convenience and security.
This experimental project demonstrates the potential of IoT and smart home integration, offering insights into OpenHABian's complex but versatile capabilities in automation.
