INTELLIGENT LETTER BOX USING ARDUINO AND GSM

ABSTRACT

In the days of technology postman still comes to our house for delivering the letters, couriers and
parcels. Because some things like courier, parcels can’t sends via email and by using any other
electronic media. So for getting notification of our letter delivery in our Letter box here we
design an intelligent letter box, which provides notification of delivery of letters in our mail box
via message to our mobile phones.

In this system an IR pair is used for sensing incoming letter in Letter box and a GSM module for
sending message to our phone. When post man or any other person insert any letter in Letter box
IR sensor sense the letter (obstacle) and then Arduino sends commands to GSM module for
sending notification message to specified phone number. Now we can collect our letter at that
time if possible.
