P.S. Above bracketed numbers were not our age but our roll no, and yes, we betrayed 29.😜
- The best part about our project, it was very pocket friendly. It did not even cost us 1200 rupees including documentations.
- Unlike any other teams who used
, we used 
technology as wireless network. We even tested our control range from almost 20 meters apart (did not measure). - Scaling feature was one of the key factor for us. Spend just a little money to purchase a SIPO register and support eight more AC appliances.
Please do not fine me for using copyrighted images. I am not earning anything from this. 🤑
- NodeMCU with ESP8266 microcontroller (Yep, we were supposed to write codes in lua but who cared? 😒 We flashed our own firmware.)
- IC 74HC595 (16 PINs SIPO shift register)
- 5V/9V DC OUT adapter (Did not have time to make our own because we slacked off. 😐)
- AC relay switches (Some type of automatic electrical switch though don't know how it works but it worked and nobody cared again. 😶)
- PCB board (I do not have to explain anything. 🙃)
- IC holders (Some smarta** decisions 😎 or nerd like 🤓)
- Resistors (Resistor, not register 😑)
- Connecting and soldering wires (Did we buy these or did we borrow from someone? 🤔)
- Bulbs with a switchless socket board (Indeed for test, we used AC relays! 💡💡💡💡)
Do you expect a license for this? Well, there is none but you can check this.
No, thank you! You can fork, clone or do whatever you want. Again nobody cares. 😶
Seeing this codebase now, I realise how far I have come and yet I feel proud as it was the time when I started my web development journey. It could have been much better if we would get some better guidance.
