A Novel Website Development for Weather Notification System using Smart Umbrella Based on Internet of Things

Internet of Things (IoT) is a popular technology that changes everyday life and contributes in changing the way of using other technologies. IoT connects the things with the internet. By means of IoT, one can be notified about the weather status beforehand using sensors. Weather conditions can be observed and collected for further use. Weather status data can be stored in a website and Raspberry Pi can read this stored information to send a set of instructions to the objects. Then, objects can respond according to the information on the website. In this work, a weather notification system is proposed where the system collects the weather status from the website and sends instruction to the things. It is a common problem of many people to forget about taking the umbrella everyday while going outside. Our system can notify the weather status by turning ON an LED attached with the umbrella and sending SMS to the user equipment at user specified time. Therefore, this smart umbrella can make everyday life more comfortable.
