Minimal Cost Notice Board Using IoT

Abstract

As we know the purpose of noticeboards in schools and colleges had become unappealing among students. Also, the traditional way of sticking up the charts and paperwork was found to be dreary which is also why students are not actively involving in doing that. In this paper, we are proposing a model of online digital noticeboard using IOT which plays a vital role in reducing paper work, time and man power. Here we use Node Miro-Controller Unit ESP8266 which has an in-built Wi-Fi module capable of sending/receiving data to/from internet. This micro-controller is connected with a LED dot matrix display which displays the data sent by the micro-controller. We have also introduced some new concepts like collecting and displaying current time, date and day along with displaying the notice sent to the micro-controller through internet.
