Description
The device was created as a project during my master's studies at AGH in Krakow. The designed and manufactured controller was based on the following assumptions:
- Remote control of AC 230V power socket and 5V USB socket with adjustable PWM signal
- Creating a website whose main function will be to manipulate two sockets by communicating with a physical control unit. Communication using WiFi.
- Creating a database that stores information about users
- The ability to control sockets only for registered and activated users
- Intuitive user interface
- Device status indication by means of LEDs
- Low production price and reliability
