Abstract

Meteorological conditions like temperature, wind, clouds, and precipitation (rainfall) influence the condition of comfort inside a house, especially through wind doors and windows; hence the need for proper control activator (either to is close aimed or at open) having of window control made convenient to home owners by the use of a switch to open windows in a an improved automatic window with rain or close the window. The design was conceived after observing the stress mechanical windows give us in our control of it to let air and light come into the house; therefore, advancement in electronics technology was used to design this automatic window. However, unlike existing automatic windows, a rain sensor has been included in this work to help shut the window automatically when rain is falling. To achieve this, a moisture sensor is incorporated in the design to sense rainfall, a forward and reversing DC Motor to move the window pane back and forth, a bistable circuit to control the movement of the DC Motor and a power supply to power the system.The design of ble circult to control work effectively in convenient control of windows for the comfort of the homes and in protecting the homes from rainfall.
