Dr. Santhosh Kumar Allemki | Dr. Vishal Walia

Abstract: College students often sleep at odd times is it in the evening or in early mornings due to being night owls. Often than not, most would depend on artificial lights such as the room lamps and computer lights. The issue here is that natural lighting are not used since students depends on artificial lights, so curtains usually remain closed for long hours which is not a healthy lifestyle. Our objective is to prevent and to alert the students on the time it was at that time. Our second objective is to in still healthy lifestyle habits in student?s life. Our third objective is to make an automatic curtain which opens and closes following the surrounding brightness. This project is based on the theme of 3R (Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle). This work allows easy maneuver for opening curtains using light sensors. In this prototype, the system will start when the sensor detects illumination of light depending on the time of the day. Using combination of software and hardware designing, a prototype was created and tested.
