Preface
Main motto of any laboratory/practical/field work is for enhancing required skills as well as
creating ability amongst students to solve real time problem by developing relevant
competencies in psychomotor domain.By keeping in view, GTU has designed competency
focused outcome-based curriculum for engineering degree programs where sufficient weightage
is given to practical work. It shows importance of enhancement of skills amongst the students
and it pays attention to utilize every second of time allotted for practical amongst students,
instructors and faculty members to achieve relevant outcomes by performing the experiments
rather than having merely study type experiments. It is must for effective implementation of
competency focused outcome-basedcurriculum that every practical is keenly designed to serve
as a tool to develop and enhance relevant competency required by the various industry among
every student. These psychomotor skills are very difficult to develop through traditional chalk
and board content delivery method in the classroom. Accordingly, this lab manual is designed to
focus on the industry defined relevant outcomes, rather than old practice of conducting practical
to prove concept and theory.
By using this lab manual students can go through the relevant theory and procedure in advance
before the actual performance which createsan interest and students can have basic idea prior to
performance.This in turn enhances pre-determined outcomes amongst students.Each experiment
in this manual begins with competency, industry relevant skills, course outcomes as well as
practical outcomes (objectives). The students will also achieve safety and necessary precautions
to be taken while performing practical.
This manual also provides guidelines to faculty members to facilitate studentcentric lab
activities through each experiment by arranging and managing necessary resources in order that
the students follow the procedures with required safety and necessary precautions to achieve the
outcomes. It also gives an idea that how students will be assessed by providing rubrics.
This manual is designed to accompany your practical exploration of the exciting and rapidly
evolving field of Internet of Things (IoT) and its practical applications. IoT is revolutionizing
the way we interact with and utilize technology, and this manual will guide you through
hands-on exercises to deepen your understanding of the subject.
Utmost care has been taken while preparing this lab manual however always there is chances of
improvement. Therefore, we welcome constructive suggestions for improvement and removal
of errors if any.

Arduino UNO:

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and
software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a
Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED,
publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of
instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming
language (based on Wiring), and the Arduino Software (IDE), based on Processing.
Arduino was born at the Ivrea Interaction Design Institute as an easy tool for fast
prototyping, aimed at students without a background in electronics and programming. As
soon as it reached a wider community, the Arduino board started changing to adapt to new
needs and challenges, differentiating its offer from simple 8-bit boards to products
for IoT applications, wearable, 3D printing, and embedded environments. All Arduino
boards are completely open-source, empowering users to build them independently and
eventually adapt them to their particular needs. The software, too, is open-source, and it is
growing through the contributions of users worldwide.

⮚ Simple, clear programming environment - The Arduino Software (IDE) is
easy-to-use for beginners, yet flexible enough for advanced users to take advantage
of as well. For teachers, it's conveniently based on the Processing programming
environment, so students learning to program in that environment will be familiar
with how the Arduino IDE works.
The key features are −
⮚ Arduino boards are able to read analog or digital input signals from different sensors
and turn it into an output such as activating a motor, turning LED on/off, connect to
the cloud and many other actions.
⮚ You can control your board functions by sending a set of instructions to the
microcontroller on the board via Arduino IDE (referred to as uploading software).
⮚ Unlike most previous programmable circuit boards, Arduino does not need an extra
piece of hardware (called a programmer) in order to load a new code onto the board.
You can simply use a USB cable.
⮚ Additionally, the Arduino IDE uses a simplified version of C++, making it easier to
learn to program.
⮚ Finally, Arduino provides a standard form factor that breaks the functions of the
micro-controller into a more accessible package.
NodeMCU :
NodeMCU is an open-source Lua based firmware and development board specially targeted
for IoT based Applications. It includes firmware that runs on the ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC from
Espressif Systems, and hardware which is based on the ESP-12 module.
10
projects: for example, you might build a robot where the Raspberry Pi handles intensive
processing tasks and provides you with a friendly environment for developing your code,
while the Arduino handles precise real-time control of the motors.
Fig 3:Raspberry Pi
Arduino IDE:
The Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is a cross-platform application
(for Windows, macOS, Linux) that is written in functions from C and C++.It is used to write
and upload programs to Arduino compatible boards, but also, with the help of third-party
cores, other vendor development boards.
11
The source code for the IDE is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2.
The Arduino IDE supports the languages C and C++ using special rules of code
structuring. The Arduino IDE supplies a software library from the Wiring project, which
provides many common input and output procedures. User-written code only requires two
basic functions, for starting the sketch and the main program loop, that are compiled and
linked with a program stub main() into an executable cyclic executive program with
the GNU toolchain, also included with the IDE distribution.The Arduino IDE employs the
program avrdude to convert the executable code into a text file in hexadecimal encoding that
is loaded into the Arduino board by a loader program in the board's firmware. By default,
avrdude is used as the uploading tool to flash the user code onto official Arduino boards.
Arduino IDE is a derivative of the Processing IDE, however as of version 2.0, the Processing
IDE will be replaced with the Visual Studio Code-based Eclipse Theia IDE framework.
With the rising popularity of Arduino as a software platform, other vendors started to
implement custom open source compilers and tools (cores) that can build and upload
sketches to other microcontrollers that are not supported by Arduino's official line of
microcontrollers.

Experiment No: 6
Objectives:
1. Identify the key components of a PIR sensor and the necessary connections.
2. Build a circuit to connect a PIR sensor to an Arduino Uno.
3. Write Arduino code to detect and respond to moving objects using the PIR sensor.
4. Interpret the motion data and trigger appropriate actions (e.g., turning on an LED or
sending a notification).
5. Understand the practical applications of motion detection in security systems and
automation.
Components:
1. PIR Sensor (HC-SR501 or similar): A sensor designed to detect motion by
measuring changes in infrared radiation.
2. Arduino Uno: The central control unit used to process sensor data and trigger actions.
3. Breadboard: Used for easy prototyping and making temporary connections.
4. Jumper Wires: These wires are used to make connections between the components
on the breadboard.
5. Output Device (e.g., LED or buzzer): An optional component for demonstrating
motion detection.
6. Power Source (if required): Depending on the components used, an external power
source may be needed to operate the circuit.
Configuration:
The design of the PIR Motion Sensor using Arduino is very simple. The PIR Sensor Module
has three pins: VCC, Digital Out and GND. Connect VCC and GND to +5V and GND
29
respectively. Then connect the Digital Out Pin of the PIR sensor to the digital I/O pin 8 of
Arduino.
As we need to indicate the detection of motion by the sensor, connect a buzzer to Pin 11 of
the Arduino.
Procedure:
1. When the system is powered on, the Arduino enters a calibration phase for the PIR
sensor. During this 10-second calibration period, the PIR sensor should not detect
any motion.
2. After the calibration period, the PIR sensor is ready to detect any movement in front
of it.
3. If the PIR sensor detects motion, its digital output pin (connected to Arduino Pin 8)
becomes HIGH.
4. Arduino detects the HIGH signal from the PIR sensor and activates the buzzer.
5. The buzzer remains active for 3 seconds (3000 milliseconds).
6. After the buzzer has been activated, it turns off when motion is no longer detected by
the PIR sensor.
Code:
int buzzer = 11;
int sensor = 8;
int led = 13;
void setup()
{
pinMode(buzzer, OUTPUT);
pinMode(sensor, INPUT);
pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(buzzer,LOW);
digitalWrite(sensor,LOW);
digitalWrite(led,LOW);
while(millis()<13000)
{
digitalWrite(led,HIGH);
delay(50);
30
digitalWrite(led,LOW);
delay(50);
}
digitalWrite(led,HIGH);
}
void loop()
{
if(digitalRead(sensor)==HIGH)
{
digitalWrite(buzzer,HIGH);
delay(3000);
digitalWrite(buzzer,LOW);
while(digitalRead(sensor)==HIGH);
}
}
Code Explanation:
● The code initializes three variables: buzzer (connected to pin 11), sensor
(connected to pin 8), and led (connected to pin 13).
● In the setup() function, the code sets the pinMode for the buzzer as OUTPUT, the
sensor as INPUT, and the LED as OUTPUT. It also initializes these components
with LOW states.
● During the calibration period, the LED blinks every 100 milliseconds for 13
seconds.
● In the loop() function, the code continuously checks the state of the PIR sensor. If
the PIR sensor detects motion (HIGH signal), it activates the buzzer for 3 seconds
and then turns it off when motion is no longer detected.

Code Explanation:
● The code includes libraries for the DHT sensor and ESP8266 WiFi.
● It defines the API key, WiFi credentials, and the ThingSpeak server.
● The DHT sensor is set up to read from pin D0 (NodeMCU's pin 0).
● The program establishes a connection to the Wi-Fi network using the provided
credentials.
● In the loop, it reads temperature and humidity data from the DHT sensor.
35
● If the data is valid (not NaN), it connects to ThingSpeak and sends the data using an
HTTP POST request.
● The program prints the temperature and humidity data to the serial monitor.
● A delay of 15 seconds (or more) is added between updates, as ThingSpeak requires a
minimum delay.
