IOT based smart gadget for eyes protection

Gadget has become a part of our daily lives. Excessive usage of gadgets for a long time along with unhealthy habits will lead to health problems such as Myopia. Using gadget at a close distance is one of the most common unhealthy habits among gadget users especially children. This project called “Eyes protection” is made to fix the unhealthy habit of using gadget at a close distance with the aim of reducing the risk of eyesight problems amongst children nowadays. This device operates by measuring the distance between the user and the gadget screen using an ultrasonic sensor which will trigger the buzzer, vibration motor and notify the parents if their children use the gadget at a distance less than 30cm. This device has the potential to significantly decrease eyesight problems among children. Other than that, an additional feature of monitoring the distance data over a period of time via the Blynk application can assist the parents to monitor their children’s behaviour and habits when using electronic gadgets such as laptops.
