I will not be going through setting up windows IoT on your Raspberry Pi and all since we have a lot of ground to cover here. I presume, since you are reading this blog you must be aware of what Raspberry Pi and windows IoT are. A relay module (5V 10A 2 Channel Relay Module Shield).I hope I excited you enough now, to read how did I achieve this. Awesome use of technology for an airhead like me! Please shut it down.” I can then go on the web module and turn it OFF remotely. So if at all forget to turn the device OFF and go to work I would get an email saying “The device has been ON for too long. All other connections and implementation would remain the same)Īpart from turning the device ON and OFF I also added a functionality to send an email when the device stays ON for too long. (For devices running on AC, the DC supply would be replaced by AC mains. To control a 9 volt LED powered by external DC supply, using Raspberry Pi and a Relay module. I wanted to experiment with an electric bulb which runs on AC supply but this being my first project of handling electrical devices and after reading several warnings on the internet, I decided to stick to high voltage LED (9-12 Volts).

That would be awesome! So I made this prototype project. That’s when I thought if I could hook up my Raspberry pi to my electric boiler or Microwave oven and be able to shut it down remotely. It’s not ignorance per say but I just forget many times. I am lousy at remembering to turn off electrical devices after I have used them. So, I asked my self what would I love to automate in my home? It was a fun ride! When I started exploring Raspberry Pi projects, Home Automation seemed the best use of the power of Raspberry Pi. Let me begin by saying that this is my first ever experiment with Raspberry Pi, rather IOT.
