SUBJECT :
The internet of things (IoT) is the internetworking of physical devices, vehicles,
buildings and other items which are embedded with electronics, software, sensors,
actuators, and network connectivity that enable these objects to collect and
exchange data. Nowadays, IoT is a great phenomenon, internetworking devices are
used everwhere and number of IoT is increasing day by day. In this project our
subject is to have control on a portable fridge via wireless connection and web
application.

AIM:
Our goals are to make the desired adjustment on temperature and to set up a data
communication by wireless connection.

SCOPE:
Organ transplantation and other medical uses where any contamination is not
desired. Protection of food and beverage. Preventing of disrupting in pharmacy and
chemical industry.

METHODS:
Dynamic equations of the system will be obtained transfer function models will be
derived. Output signals will be analyzed and measured by sensor.
For adjustment of temperature, power controller will be implemented.
To communicate with the fridge and web server, wifi module will generate wifi signals
which will be caught by a specific modem thus communicating with server. For
establishing server, web application will be written in PHP programming language.

BENEFITS:
Facilitation of organ transplantation and other medical uses where any contamination
is not desired. In order to expand the project, more portable fridges can be controlled
remotely. This will lead to use of the fridge at bigger storages.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
Aydn and Kbra will be responsible of the hardware assembling of the project and
Hasan and Alper will be responsible of the software part of the project.
Aydn zcan will be responsible of the course of the project and the project phases.
Kbra Tunca will be focusing more on arduino board, Aydn zcan will be focusing
more on sensor dynamics and implementation of LM35 sensor and ESP8266 WiFi
module, Hasan alkan will be focusing more on arduino and php coding and the
last but not the least Alper Dal will be more focusing on php server coding and web
design.

PROJECT SCHEDULE:
October 3-10
methods.

: Research of hardware components and software

October 10-17

: Purchase and analysis of the hardware.

October 17-November 7 : Integration of Arduino UNO board, LM35 temperature

sensor, ESP8266 WiFi module on the portable fridge.
November 7-28

: Establishing web server with PHP and Arduino coding.

November 28-December 12: Testing and debugging.

SUCCESS CRITERIA:
The project is successful if:
1) Communication between web server and fridge is established fast and durable.
2) Temperature adjusting is accomplished within at most 5% error.
3) The project is mostly applicable and provides a basis for similar aiming projects.

BUDGET:
Arduino UNO board, LM35 sensor, ESP8266 WiFi module and a portable fridge will
be cost less than $200, and web server will be accesible anywhere.
