Would have four wheels
-
Controlled using DC motor or PWM
-
-
Controlled using MCU
-
Arduino
-
-
Be able to perform all the following functions
-
Hold seeds
-
Plant seeds
-
Drill hole for seeds in soil
-
Ability to keep inventory of seeds
-
Refillable water tank
-
Measure ph
-

​

2. Automated Lawnmower
-
Would have four wheels
-
Be able to perform the following function
-
Mow lawn
-
Measure perimeter of lawn
-
Variable cut length
-
Clean Energy
-
Solar Power
-
Battery (?)

3. Smart Fridge
-
Be able to hold inventory
-
Be able to scan barcodes
-
Look up database for standard barcoded products
-
-
Possible RFID tags in or on product so when the product leaves
-
Could incorporate Scales to keep track of inventory automatically
-
Would recognize the difference in weight and be able to update data upon this
-
-
Working tablet to display inventory
-
Tablet could either be done using RPI
-

4. GPS Dog / Cat collar
-
Would work for either Cat or dog
-
Would have three different levels or stages to tracking
-
If close enough to general Wi-Fi that is connected, then you know your pet would be safe inside your house
-
So it would go into low power mode
-
-
If your Wi-Fi signal is weaker than a certain DB level, then you would know that it is possibly in the yard or not right near your house
-
Start to turn on GPS or Wi-Fi tracking or Bluetooth energy
-
-
Finally, if your pet would go outside of a designated “fence” or yard area, then your app would notify you of this
-
-
Heat map of where your pet is in, when given map or plot of land
-
Graphical representation of activity of pet throughout the day
-
Bar Graph
-
-
Since you don’t want to constantly buy a new collar you would make it be rechargeable battery
-
Thinking something along the lines of having a station where you plug it into a station and would have a led to show status of said batter
-
App would also relay this information
-
-
-
Would have to be waterproof
-
Reasons:
-
Would jump in pool? Wouldn’t want to harm pet
-
-
-
Push notifications if cat gets up and walks around after long nap?
-
Possibly warn you if your cat/dog have been sitting around for extended amount of time
-

5. Baby Car seat monitor
-
Help parents from forgetting child in vehicle
-
Would incorporate sensors to be able to tell difference between human and objects
-
Ability to determine if car is on by use of vibration sensor
-
Determine if car is moving
-
Adjustable Vibration Sensor
-
Variable temperature sensor
-
So parents could adjust the temperature threshold
-
