An IoT-Related Prototype: Making a Smart Bookshelf With Arduino

Making a smart bookshelf with Arduino

1. Overview: as we run the project, before planning, designing, and developing a concrete product, 

for IoT-related concepts and implementation directions that can feel unfamiliar or ambiguous,

the intent is to create a working example to help the team mutually understand things.

2. Resources

- Feature: if you haven't taken a book off the shelf for a certain period, it sends a tweet saying "Let's read a book~" 

- Duration: 10 days (about 2 hours per day)

- Location: Fab Lab Korea (Sewoon Sangga, Jongno-gu)

- Materials cost: about 70,000 KRW (Arduino Uno, PIR sensor, Wi-Fi shield, LED, etc.) 

- Tools used: Rhino

- Technologies used: laser cutter, Arduino 

3. Process

1) Idea sketch 

2) Ordered and rented related components

3) Circuit and sensor assembly

4) Coding and testing

5) Visit to the mockup workshop and basic training

6) Mockup fabrication

7) Mockup fabrication and assembly

8) Completion and testing
