SIMPLE OVERFLOW STOPPER For Water Tanks
Even though water covers two-thirds of the Earth's surface, less than 1% of it is fresh and easily accessible for human use. Preventing unnecessary wastage of this limited resource is therefore essential. Several methods are currently employed to address this concern, and one effective approach is to use an electronic or electrical system to prevent storage water tanks from overflowing. This also helps conserve electrical energy by ensuring the pump motor runs only long enough to fill the tank with the correct volume of water.

INFINITY ENERGY: The Future Of Self-Powered IoT
Power remains the quiet obstacle slowing the global expansion of wearable and IoT devices. Despite rapid technological progress, these devices continue to depend on batteries that fail, leak, or require replacement, ultimately adding to e-waste within a few years. Thankfully, the idea of everyday devices such as TV remotes, fitness bands, smart switches, sensors, or even medical patches operating indefinitely without a battery is becoming increasingly feasible.

Multifunction Human Detection And WEATHER MONITORING SYSTEM
A human detection system was designed earlier to utilise the microwave Doppler effect to detect human movement and trigger AC appliances such as light bulbs and other electrical loads up to 1A. The design incorporated a solder jumper pad for mode selection, enabling the same PCB to be configured for IoT compatibility by integrating IoT functionality into the radar switch. This configuration supports real-time radar data monitoring, alert reception, and wireless control of lights over a WiFi network.

Miniature IoT WATER TDS And LEVEL MONITOR Cum CONTROLLER
For setups that rely on stored water, clear awareness of tank level and water quality is essential. Traditional level monitors are often bulky offline devices with only simple LED indicators, while many newer smart models can be expensive and still ignore key quality parameters such as total dissolved solids (TDS) and turbidity. As environmental contamination increases, continuous monitoring of both water level and purity has become necessary.
