IoT based Smart Village

The idea of Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the future prospects of technology. The rationale behind its working is the amalgamation of web, mobile and Information and Communications technology. It enables various devices in a system to communicate and interact with each other to perform their job in a harmonious way. The rising population of the world makes it necessary to facilitate the cities and villages to function in a smart way. In a country like India, where majority of population lives in villages, huge efforts have been made to automate cumbersome and mundane tasks in city homes and offices. However, very little has been done in villages where IoT could play a vital role in bringing ’smartness’ to the typical village activities. This project mainly focuses on making three aspects in a typical village smart viz irrigation, cattle feeding, and the public distribution system (Ration).
