Protection of dress from rain

19 February, 2026 Anil 0 Comments 1 category

Introduction:

In this project emphasis has given to protect our dress from rain by using modern engineering and technology. This system is simple, effective, economic and reliable. It automatically takes our dress to a dry place when rain starts. The status of dress can be observed in a mobile phone with the help of internet.

Materials required:

Resistor

Transistor

Microcontroller

L.E.D

Servo Motor

Adaptor

Conducting wire

Working:

By using an adaptor we get 5 volt dc. When a rain drop touches the sensor, it sends an analog signal to microcontroller. Then the microcontroller rotates the servo motor for a specific angle. Here it is 90 degree. This makes the bar attached to the motor shaft to turn immediately towards roof shade. So, the dress do not get wet and kept dry under the shading. With the help of internet, on a web browser we can see whether the clothes are under the sun or under the shade even staying far away from home.

Advantages:

This protects the dress materials from rain without making those wet.
This also reduces human effort.
This system is simple, effective, economic and reliable.
