Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) conceptualizes the idea of remotely connecting and monitoring real world objects (things) through the Internet [1]. When it comes to our house, this concept can be aptly incorporated to make it smarter, safer and automated. This IoT paper focuses on smart refrigerator system which sends alerts to the user when the milk packets count to be decreased because the user refilling he packet purpose. The advantage of smart system is to maintaining the performance and avoids unavailability of milk. Besides, the same can also be utilized for smart fridge by making use of the sensors. The leverage obtained by preferring this system over the similar kinds of existing systems is that the alerts and the status sent by the wifi connected microcontroller managed system can be received by the user on his phone from any distance irrespective of whether his mobile phone . The microcontroller used in the current prototype which comes with an embedded micro-controller and an onboard Wi-Fi shield making use of which all the electrical appliances inside the home can be controlled and managed.
