Product Development of a Smart and Multifunctional Plug
Session
Mechatronics, System Engineering and Robotics
Description
The trend of constructing and converting an ordinary home into a smart home has been on a steady rise in recent years, all thanks to new technologies now being implemented such as Internet Of Things (IoT) and smart devices that have the ability to collect important data in order to optimize consumption and reduce the cost of electricity. Smart homes are considered expensive, but there is a possibility for a homeowner to implement some of the smart technologies without making huge expenses and investments. One way to do this is to use smart sockets, which make it possible for an ordinary home to function as a smart one. The purpose of this topic is to explain the impact of applying smart outlets to ordinary homes as well as the steps that are needed to be taken to develop such a product. Starting from understanding hardware product development strategies to applying them in our case in important processes like the electronic part development, programming, development of a simple mobile application for user interaction and finally a description of the mechanical parts designed in 3D.
