Home Automation

Overview

Have you ever left the house and, hours later, fretted over whether you locked your door? It's a familiar feeling--and one that can be avoided. Our project can be used to solve this all-too-common problem. Through our website interface, a user can remotely lock their door and eliminate the worry associated with common forgetfulness. The physical aspects of our design include a servo and Raspberry Pi system which can attach to a door and be used for home security purposes.
