Raspberry pi is commonly known as a general purpose full fledged computer and can perform tasks like your desktop pc.
Automatic door opening and closing system using raspberry pi.
System detects human presence and then opens door automatically depending on the human sensing input detected.
This instructable explains how i setup a raspberry pi to open my garage door using a smarthphone.
You can learn more about the programming using flask here also check our previous projects where we have used flask to control robot through webserver send the message from webpage to raspberry pi and send weight value to raspberry pi in smart container.
Automatic door opening systems can be implemented using different sensors like infrared pressure ultrasonic laser etc.
While this has been done before i thought i d post my solution.
Proposed system allows for automated door opening using human detection with lighting control using raspberry pi.
However i had a raspberry pi lying around with no use so i wanted to put it to work.
Also the system keeps track of lighting conditions in the room and depending on the lighting needed system switches.
Now we will write a python script for our garage door web server.
The operation of the motor works as follows.
You can create an internet connected smart door lock using your raspberry pi 3 single board computer.
Designing a robot which performs multiple tasks.
Raspberry pi is used to perform higher level processes and it can be assigned multiple numbers of tasks at a time.
Automatic door opening systems are used in many places like shopping malls bur or railway stations airports etc.
In practice a simpler and cheaper device such as an ardunio microcontroller would work.
Raspberry pi garage door opener.
Iot communication capabilities can be integrated into the project to enable the remote controlling and monitoring of the electrical devices.
A lack of drivers for the esp 12e however resulted in noisycarlos switching to a raspberry pi zero w and with the use of some python code the project finally came to life using a mobile app to finally control the lock over tcp with some home protecting encryption added into the mix to prevent anyone hacking the house.
The automated door control with lighting control using the raspberry pi project implements a home automation system in an efficient and cost effective way.
Creating the python script for smart garage door opener.
It can be unlocked over a wifi connection using a smartphone and a custom app.
This was my first hardware project and instructable ever and i m sure.
