Abstract

The Technology is transforming human life into a smart world due to its rapid expansion. To make people's lives easier, smart sensors connected to physical items give data. We show a case study of a smart water dispenser that uses weight sensors, temperature sensors, and Arduino to track how much water customers and water bottle suppliers use on a daily basis. When the water in the dispenser is ready to run out, the smart water dispenser weighs the water that is still within and sends out a warning. It takes the temperature and sends the user notifications regarding water use. Here, we propose an Arduino and Relay-based completely automated RFID-based water dispenser system. Using solenoid tap and sensors, the device may fully automate the water distribution process. In order to prevent water deterioration if no glass is placed at the counter panel, the system also detects the presence of glass there. Infrared (IR) sensors are used by the system to identify glass, after which the sensors provide a signal to the microcontroller. Now that the sensors have provided information, the microcontroller is processing it to see if glass is present. The system features an RFID Reader that may be used to read specific tags and provide information about valid tags to the microcontroller. When a valid tag is found, the system now sends a signal to the controller, which then determines whether glass is there before starting the motor to pour water into the glass while the glass is still there. If glass is removed while the process is running, the mechanism shuts off the water flow until glass is found. So, in this article, we propose a smart water dispenser system with a water-saving feature.
