Smart Heating

Inspiration

I needed to control a heating and a boiler manually, or automatically using a smartphone.

What it does

You can turn heating on and off manually, by a timer, by a time, or by a temperature in your flat.

How we built it

I wrote a code for the ESP8266 board, developed an application in Android Studio and modeled a case for 3D printing.

Challenges we ran into

It was necessary to create and configure a project on the Firebase platform, using which you can send commands to control heating. I also needed to make an additional device to measure the temperature in the room.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I added a time control mode to my application, using which you can configure algorithm for turning heating on and off.

What we learned

I improved my skills in application development, working with the Firebase platform and code development for the ESP8266 board.

What's next for Smart Heating

I will add the ability to control the temperature in a room through the measurement of the temperature outside.
