Idea: I would like to upcycle my 2002 made godrej refrigerator with intel edison So It can order consumable from Amazon using Amazon Dash Replenishment Service and I will add a RGB Light with Intel Edison in refrigerator which is connected to my IoT based Smart Health monitor so by realtime data of my heart rate and body temperature, Color of this Light changes and when I open fridge just by looking at light color I will get to know what will be a good food to eat based on my health parameters..
Implementation :
There are two main innovative features i will add to my fridge to upcycle it..
1. Auto reordering Consumables using Intel Edison and Amazon Dash Replenishment APIs
2. Enchanted Light in Fridge using Intel Edison and my own IoT based Smart Health Monitor..
Here is a block diagram showing how my upcycled fridge works...
1. Auto reordering Consumables using Intel Edison and Amazon Dash Replenishment APIs
With Intel Edison I will interface several Sensors (i.e Weight sensor, Liquid level sensor etc) which measures amount of consumables available in various compartment of my fridge and place order of the same on Amazon by Amazon Dash Replenishment Service APIs running on Intel Edison when amount of these consumables is running low. My recent project "DRS for Sanitization Needs of Baby" will be a foundation for working with Amazon DRS. Here is a link of this Project Documentation.
And here is Video Demo of the same..
Here is Hardware demo of this Project..
2. Enchanted Light in Fridge using Intel Edison and my own IoT based Smart Health Monitor..
Here I will interface Neopixel RGB LED Strip with Intel Edison which is in my fridge. Intel Edison continuously receives my Health related data (Heart Rate, Body Temperature) from MQTT Broker by Subscribing to my Smart Health Monitor Chest Strap. Intel Edison changes Color and Patterns of RGB LED according to my Heart Rate and Body Temperature. So by looking at color of light every time I open my refrigerator this light intuitively suggest/encourage the me that what will be good food to eat based on health condition of user (ultimately color of light)... Here my Recent Project "Enchanted Light" Project is source of inspiration and I will use my own designed IoT based health monitor chest Strap to show usability of this feature.
Here is video of my Smart health monitor chest strap, I will be using as Prop to demonstrate functionality of Enchanted light proposed in this project..
And here is a video showing my earlier designed enchanted light..
Thanks a lot to element14 team and Intel for selecting my proposal for this challenge...By applying to this design contest I am not only upcycling my old refrigerator but Also upcycling my recent projects with Intel Edison Board and providing End to end Solution from user perspective..
Hope you likes my proposal...
