Abstract

The sun-dry method is commonly used in many households in Malaysia. The sun-dried clothes method is much cheaper than buying a clothes dryer and dryer sheets. It is technically free and saves money. However, it will rain at any time without realising it in Malaysia. If residents failed to notice the rain and were slow to lift it, an almost-dry shirt on a clothes hanger outside the house might become wet again. So, the main objective is to develop a smart clothesline system to produce an alarm to help users be aware of the presence of rain from wet shirts hanging outside. This project uses an IoT-based microcontroller to detect the presence of rain. When rain drops fall on the sensor, it will create a conducting path and activate the water detector sensor. Once the water detector sensor is triggered at 30%, the motor will move. The system also controls the Firebase to store the data sensors and send them to the application that was designed. Since the system was able to detect a raindrop, it will help the housewife and the users by removing the clothes to dry places.
