IoT Enabled Smart Television Control System for Children

Abstract

Now a days, television has become an integral part of daily life. Substantially Children are obsessed with cartoons, rhymes, and 3D pictures. Therefore, the use of long periods of TV viewing has a negative impact on their health, including optic nerve damage. Jitters that impair their vision and heighten their stress level without their knowledge causes headaches, etc. This proposed system will produce a smart app that covers and controls both biases and allows you to shoot parents and guardians can disable SMS announcements if they find them inconvenient. The bias automatically from anywhere at any time. The main ideal of this design is to give an IoT-enabled security system control over and long-time usage of TV. If the children use the TV for a long time automatically TV will be shut down by the parents with the help of blynk app. This design avoids the causes of health problems such as increased stress, neck pain and vision loss as well as the effects of optic jitters on the brain. This system aims to develop a prototype that's independent and capable of controlling television automatically via an Android smartphone using the Arduino UNO Microcontroller. If the children are sitting in front of the television within the distance limit from 20cm to 100 cm, the wi-fi module tracks the distance from the ultrasonic sensor. The tracked signal from ultrasonic sensor is send to the Arduino microcontroller and microcontroller will turn off the screen of the television.
