Summary:Throughout this modernization world, the demands on Internet of Thing keep increasing. Most mailbox or pigeon hole are designed with poor efficiency system and commonly suffer from some possible flaws such as manually checking the letter by the user. The main problem of this project is to improve the existing pigeonhole system. In the case of staff at School of Computer and Communication System, Universiti Malaysia Perlis, each academic staff has been allocated a pigeon hole for any letters or memos from within or inter faculty. Unfortunately, the current conventional pigeon hole system is unable to inform and notify the staff on any urgent letter and this lead to significant delay in responding the letter. The main weakness of the current system is that staffs need to check their respective pigeon hole every day. However, due to the routine commitment or unforeseen circumstances the pigeon hole cannot be possibly checked every day. Hence, to fulfil this requirement, this project named as Smart Electronic Pigeon Hole System is introduced in order to make the pigeon hole more efficient. The purpose of this project is to design a smart electronic pigeon hole system with some detecting sensors such as infrared and ultrasonic sensors. Wi-Fi module acts as a tool to communicate via email between pigeonhole's system and its owner. Arduino board is used to be programmed in such a way to process the sensors when detecting the upcoming document or letters and to continuously check the status of capacity of the pigeon hole. This project work with the administrative staff, who collected the documents from the post center, will entered and select the designated number of the pigeon hole users. Infrared sensors, located at the front, will detect the upcoming documents or letters. Ultrasonic sensor will detect the fullness of the letter in the pigeon hole. When there is arriving of document or letters, the user will get the notification email. The user will also get the warning notification email when their pigeon hole is full with documents. Red LED will light on when the capacity of the pigeon hole is full. The sensor will continually sense the condition of the pigeon hole as long as the system is activated. This project is suitable for the staff or the apartment residents as it has the capability to alert the user when there is a letter to prevent the urgent letter's being ignored.
