The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. This document describes a project that uses an ESP8266 WiFi module and NodeMCU to control an LED using an Android app developed with MIT App Inventor. The hardware and software components required are listed, along with descriptions and diagrams of how they connect and interact through a Firebase database to allow remote control of the LED status.

The Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices,


mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with
unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring
human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction.

DESCRIPTION

➢ In this project the LED was operated using Node Mcu and Moblie, through
an App (Application) developed with the help of MIT App Inventor.

➢ By installing this App in your Android Phone you can able to control the
LED.

Overview
➢ ESP8266 WiFi Module has been a main figure in the IoT market.

➢ There are several flavours of ESP8266 like ESP-01 by AiThinker,


NodeMCU and so forth but the intention and the job are the same.

➢ There are several IoT Projects based on ESP8266 WiFi Module but Home
Automation i.e. controlling different electrical appliances through WiFi (or
Internet) has always been a trending and in demand project.

➢ So, in this project, We’ll show you how to interface a LED to the ESP8266
WiFi Module and also how control a LED on&off state’s using ESP8266.

➢ For this project, We’ll also create an Android App using which you can use
for controlling purpose.

Hardware Component Description

• NodeMCU

▪ NodeMCU is an open source LUA based firmware developed for


ESP8266 wifi chip. By exploring functionality with ESP8266 chip,
NodeMCU firmware comes with ESP8266 Development board/kit
i.e. NodeMCU Development board.
▪ Since NodeMCU is open source platform, their hardware design is
open for edit/modify/build.
▪ NodeMCU Dev Kit/board consist of ESP8266 wifi enabled chip.
The ESP8266 is a low-cost Wi-Fi chip developed by Espressif
Systems with TCP/IP protocol.
▪ NodeMCU Dev Kit has Arduino like Analog (i.e. A0) and Digital
(D0- D8) pins on its board.
▪ It supports serial communication protocols i.e. UART, SPI, I2C
etc.
▪ Using such serial protocols we can connect it with serial devices
like I2C enabled LCD display, Magnetometer HMC5883, MPU-
6050 Gyro meter +Accelerometer, RTC chips, GPS modules, touch
screen displays, SD cards etc.
• LED
▪ A light-emitting diode (LED) is a two-lead semiconductor light
source.
▪ It is a p–n junction diode that emits light when activated.
▪ When a suitable current is applied to the leads, electrons are able to
recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in
the form of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence.
• Resistor
▪ A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that
implements electrical resistance as a circuit element.
▪ In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust
signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate
transmission lines, among other uses.
Software Component Description

• Arduino IDE
▪ The Arduino integrated development environment (IDE) is a cross-
platform application (for Windows, macOS, Linux) that is written in
the programming language Java. ... The Arduino IDE supplies a
software library from the Wiring project, which provides many
common input and output procedures.

• Firebase
▪ Firebase is a mobile and web application development platform
developed by Firebase, Inc. in 2011, then acquired by Google in 2014.
As of October 2018, the Firebase platform has 18 products which are
used by 1.5 million apps.

• MIT App Inventor


▪ App Inventor for Android is an open-source web application originally
provided by Google, and now maintained by the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology.
▪ It allows newcomers to computer programming to create software
applications for the Android operating system.

TEMPERATURE SENSOR INTERFACE
DESCRIPTION

➢ In this project the we monitor the temperature using temperature sensor &
ESP8266 and mobile through an App (Application) developed by the help of
MIT App Inventor.
➢ By installing this App in your Android Phone, you can able to monitor the
temperature of atmosphere .

Hardware Components Required


➢ NodeMCU
➢ LM35
➢ Breadboard
➢ Connecting wires

Software Components Required


➢ Arduino IDE
➢ Firebase
➢ Android application(MIT APP INVENTOR)

Hardware Component Description

• Lm35
▪ LM35 is a 3 pin temperature sensor which requires a VCC and GND
and in return the remaining third pin gives us an analog output.
▪ This output is then provided to the ADCs present in AtMega 16 IC
which according to a formula calculate the temperature in °C format.
▪ The LM35 series are precision integrated-circuit temperature sensors,
whose output voltage is linearly proportional to the Celsius
(Centigrade) temperature.
▪ The LM35 thus has an advantage over linear temperature sensors
calibrated in ° Kelvin.

❖ Other components are we already discussed in above project.
