Coolinator3000

Inspiration

I started brainstorming about what to make. And after a lot of research, and browsing the web for inspiration, I came up with the idea of making something from a Hat using Arduino and other stuff. So I thought that we could add more things to it and make it better and interesting so people can have fun and can even chill out with my project. I learned about electronic circuits, components, and Arduino. I understood PCB designing might be a tedious job, and at the development level, Arduino's would be the best fit for the prototype.

What it does

In my project, The Coolinter3000 allows people to chill around in the hot summers. It has many functions to do. You don't just switch on and off the fan, but can play with temperature, direction, or even set it on Auto pilot!

How I built it

The project's top hat that consists of a servo mounted fan and LEDs. I came up with the project idea organically while brainstorming and the idea of making the most wacky hat possible.

Tech used

*HTML/CSS *Javascript *Arduino *Microcontrollers *Robotics *Other Hardware

Challenges I ran into

The challenges I faced were, that I didn't have all the components needed but still we made a project using components I had.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I completed the project on time. and the project is working the way it is supposed to. I am proud of the outcome as I made it with really few components, I was new to hardware and IOT but made it to work! :)

What I learned

I learned how to face problems and do not give up at any cost. I also learned about new technologies like AWS, EchoAR, tinkerCAD, Polling, and other stuff. It was a really good experience to attend those workshops as they were really well controlled and maintained

What's next for Coolinator3000

So as per now I don't have any idea. But yes After wards I will be adding some more components to it so that it looks fancy, light weighted, more LED lights, some new functionalities and good to use.

Build with

Parts used: ELEGOO kit (mostly for sensors: IR remote and receiver, temperature sensor, and also the fan itself and power supply), Arduino Nano as the microcontroller, a MOSFET to control the motor, a microphone and two 2n2222 BJTs for the noise sensor, solderless breadboard, jumper wires, LEDs.
