CaelumSense: Your Personalized SMART Room Monitoring System

CaelumSense is a state-of-the-art room monitoring system designed to provide real-time insights into your room's humidity, temperature, and light levels. Powered by an Arduino-based hardware platform and a user-friendly web interface, CaelumSense makes it easy to monitor and analyze your room's environment. The system also features an AI-driven chatbot, CaelumAI, leveraging the text-davinci-003 model from OpenAI API to provide personalized assistance and support.

Hardware Overview

CaelumSense employs two Arduino boards, an ESP8266 WEMOS D1 mini and an Arduino MEGA ATmega2560, to collect sensor data and transmit it to a remote server using HTTPS POST requests. The front-end dashboard provides users with real-time access to this data through visually engaging graphs and tables.

CaelumSense Chatbot

The CaelumSense Chatbot is a conversational agent that provides real-time temperature and humidity sensor data from the CaelumSense system. The chatbot is powered by OpenAI's GPT-3.5 architecture and can be accessed through a web-based user interface.

Chatbot Features

  • Provides real-time temperature and humidity sensor data from the CaelumSense system
  • Allows users to ask questions in natural language
  • Responds to user queries with relevant and accurate information
  • Can handle multiple users simultaneously
  • Uses OpenAI's GPT-3.5 architecture to generate responses

Chatbot Technologies Used

The CaelumSense Chatbot is built using the following technologies:

  • Frontend: HTML/CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap
  • Backend: Node.js, Express.js
  • API: OpenAI's GPT-3.5

Chatbot Usage

To use the CaelumSense Chatbot, follow these steps:

  1. Open a web browser and navigate to the CaelumSense dashboard.
  2. Click on the chat icon to open the chatbot interface.
  3. Type your question in the input field and press Enter or click the Send button.
  4. The chatbot will generate a response based on your query.

Chatbot Limitations

  • The chatbot can only provide sensor data from the last 100 readings.
  • The chatbot is currently only able to respond to queries related to temperature and humidity data.
