Home Automation System with FreeRTOS

Project Overview

This project is a home automation system designed to enhance security, monitor environmental conditions, and provide a event logging mechanism. The system integrates an ESP32 microcontroller with various peripherals and utilizes FreeRTOS for efficient multitasking.

Technologies and Tools

• Microcontroller: ESP32
• Software: FreeRTOS, Arduino IDE, Visual Studio Code, PlatformIO
• Peripherals: Push Button, Switch, Light Sensor, Servo, 2 White LEDs, RGB LED, Magnetic Sensor, IR SENSORS, SHT31-D, LCD, OLED, SD module
• Protocols: I2C, SPI, Wi-Fi

Features

• Alarm System: A controlled alarm activates when an intruder is detected, emitting beeps every second for 2 minutes unless manually deactivated.
• Environmental Monitoring: Displays temperature and humidity data using an SHT31-D sensor.
• User Interface:
  • LCD for temperature and humidity readings.
  • OLED screen to show the status of sensors and alarms.
• Data Logging: Records significant events on an SD card, with filenames based on the current date.
• Time Synchronization: Accesses an NTP server via Wi-Fi to retrieve the current date and time.
• Email Reports: Emails every time an intruder is detected.
• Automation:
  • Activates a servo garage door when needed.
  • Turns on lights automatically when no sunlight is detected.

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/alejoarte/Automated-House.git
   

2. Set up the hardware:

• Connect ESP32 with LCD, OLED, SHT31-D, and SD module.
• Ensure Wi-Fi connectivity for NTP synchronization.

3. Install dependencies:

   • FreeRTOS library
   • LCD, OLED and SD card libraries
   • ezButton
   • ESP32Servo
   • ESP Mail Client
   • SHT31 Library

4. Upload the code to the ESP32 using the Arduino IDE.
