IoT based Comprehensive Approach Towards Shaping Smart Classrooms

Smart phones have been integral in replacing the need to store information on pieces of paper and carry hefty materials thereby providing an interactive digital repository to record the same. Educational institutions often restrict the usage of smartphones with regard to their misuse by students. However, efficient use can bring revolutionary enhancements to the education centers. Keeping in view the recent advancements brought about by the integration of IoT devices and smartphones, this research work proposes a methodology to automate institutions by providing an efficient, scalable and low-cost solution to aid the process of teaching and learning for teachers and students respectively.

We developed a prototype for this research at a state-level hackathon with 200+ teams, my team developed a cost effective IoT solution powered by an AI based mobile application to digitize any classroom. Fortunately we went on to win the hackathon!

The aim of the application developed is to provide students the facility to create personalized digital records of notes, record audio lectures and generate portable documents for the same, mark attendance which operates using computer vision. In addition to this, excessive power consumption in institutions can be minimized drastically by using cameras to detect human presence and operate appliances accordingly. The integration of the IoT module via Bluetooth enables users to remotely control the appliances using the proposed application. Moreover, a smart door mechanism designed especially with regard to the current pandemic and also to support physically challenged people.

This mobile application achieves classroom automation offering various modules to enhance user experience during lectures is developed using Java, a general-purpose objectoriented programming language for IoT, client-server applications, enterprise architecture, and cloud-based systems.
