The problem Smart Home (Home Automation) solves

Problem it is Solving ->

  1. Automating all the boring things which we have to do in daily life
  2. Automating the light bulbs, fan and other things save the electrical energy.
    Now I mention what something unique or new features which we have done ->
  3. Smart charging in mobile phones (automatic switch wiil be off when your phone chagrged to a point which you set).
  4. Opening door by face recognition
  5. Controlling appliances using voice

Challenges I ran into

Since It comprised hardware part also so our team face a lot issue in hardware part, my role is mainly of little bit Arduino coding and major role is in making android app which control all the things.
Challenges in Arduino coding ->
1. Merging code of all appliances (this took a lot time to solve)
Challenges in app development ->
1. Very few resources are available to know how to make app for automation after very long time got to know about
firebase.
2 Solving the bugs and errors coming during development (because we made this project in first year in Prosang).
3. Sending clickable notification to the user
