Tentative Project Title: Internet of Things Home Automation
Project Description/Abstract:
Smart phones are the gateway to home automation. Having a control center at your fingertips creates easier control over devices that create comfort and security in our everyday life. We live in a society where people spend more time away from their homes. Home automation can make people more at ease when they can monitor motion in their home and have the ability to control lighting and temperature.
My plan is create a wireless home automation system using a Wifi board. With the use of the Wifi board I will be able to attach various sensors throughout a home environment. To access sensor data I plan on using MQTT protocol via MyMQTT application. I will develop an application that will send notifications from the sensors to my android phone via Nodemcu board.
Project Topics to be Studied:
- IOT devices
- Core architecture
- Kits & Boards
- API reference
- MyMQTT
- Nodemcu
- Arduino Programming
Project Objectives:
Learn about home automation devices that can be controlled over the internet using a wifi board.
Deploy several sensors to include: light sensor, temperature sensor, motion sensor, doorbell.
Use MyMQTT application to use a protocol to send sensor data to my Android phone, to include:
- Get a warning when movement is detected in a room.
- Measure the environmental light.
- Get notified when the doorbell is ringing.
- Measure the temperature in a room.
Project Description -
This project was to use several software development tools (Eclipse, Git, GitHub, GitHub Desktop, Javadoc, Eclipse Refactoring, JUnit, and JDeodorant) and gain experience in software quality assurance through using tools to enable refactoring, documentation, configuration management, etc. In doing so, develop a better understanding software quality assurance tasks that can be undertaken throughout the software development lifecycle. Software refactoring takes small steps to improve code structure and maintainability by removing bad design smells
Improve the quality of an open-source Software Project.
Requirements Engineering - The objective of the group project was to experience collecting, understanding and specifying requirements for a proposed Information System (IS) Project. Our team submitted a project proposal, to design a drone. We discussed the proposed goals of the system with our stake holders. We had a first requirement gathering meeting which we got our clients understanding and a clear understanding of the system.
