Abstract

Clotheslines have been used for centuries as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to clothes dryers. They are particularly popular in sunny and open areas where natural elements aid in the drying process. The rapid advancement of technology has revolutionized various aspects of our daily lives, including household chores. In this context, the smart automated foldable clothes hanger has emerged as an innovative solution, streamlining laundry management and enhancing convenience for users. The primary objective of this project is to achieve automatic control of the foldable clothes hanger through the Internet of Things (IoT), connecting hardware to smartphones via the Blynk application. The water sensor and light-dependent resistor (LDR) sensor are utilized to provide input or signals to the servo motor, responsible for controlling the hanger's rotation. The collected sensor data is then processed by the Arduino Uno R3 microcontroller and transmitted to a cloud server via Wi-Fi. By integrating the system with an IoT platform, users can remotely monitor and control the foldable hanger through a user interface accessible on mobile electronic devices, such as smartphones, by connecting to specific Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. The foldable clothes hanger autonomously folded when it detected the presence of water or the absence of light, offering notable benefits for individuals leading busy lifestyles.
