Global goals
A resourceful home stores energy in batteries generated by rainwater and sunlight while water filter purifies harvested rainwater for household use.
The IoT sensors simplify daily life by enhancing safety monitoring, and alerting the homeowner to danger or risks, as well as streamlining routine activities.
The bluetooth remote control manages the home alarm, and windows close automatically at preset times.
The AI-powered face recognition detects intruders, triggering alarms. Flame and raindrop sensors also activate alarms and close windows when necessary.
All sensor alerts are sent via Telegram through a WiFi module, enabling the homeowner to take immediate emergency action.
