Description:Field of the Invention
This invention relates to IoT Based Smart Benches System for Smart Classrooms
Background of the Invention
Here we want to introduce a new idea on smart benches because now a days distance classes are becoming popular for students as well as for teachers also like for taking guest lectures etc.
KR101764189B1 This invention is for the advertisement this system has a display unit which is fixed with the bench and a speaker system which will produce sound of the advertisement shown on the screen. in this system there is sitting sensor when anyone sits on the bench the advertisement will be started regarding nearby markets.
Research Gap:Our invention is for the students those who are in colleges and schools for distance learning which will be very beneficial.
KR102332266B1A solar smart bench (terminal) is connected to the central control centre through a LoRa network or wired/wireless network, the solar smart bench (terminal part) is made up of a master module and a predetermined number of slave modules, and the present invention relates to an intelligent IC system capable of building a social safety net using an intelligent sensor-based solar smart bench. To enable monitoring and control as one system across a large area, each of the several smart benches is connected to the central control hub through a number of APs. The solar panel on the smart bench regulates the solar panel on the control board. It is outfitted with a controller, a battery, a USB charging connector, motion and ultrasonic sensors, an SOS call button, a self-siren alerting feature, and an emergency call device. If the battery that stores the power is at risk of flooding, the risk is decreased to the central control centre. It is distinguished by having a flood sensor to alert the administration and prompt them to take action in advance.
Research Gap: But in our invention the smart benches having display unit and works with the help of internet connectivity and external power source so there will no risk of any. And our invention also has mic and speaker system but for raising queries and doubts to the faculty and in our invention the display units are also fitted for presenting & receiving presentation given by faculty at the individual student level for better understanding.
None of the prior art indicate above either alone or in combination with one another disclose what the present invention has disclosed. Present invention is IoT Based Smart Benches for Smart Classrooms
