Explanation:

This project involves the design and implementation of an automatic door lock system
using IoT technology. The key components of the system include an ESP32 microcontroller,
a 5V relay, a 12V electromagnetic lock, and a 12V adapter. The system is designed to
provide enhanced security and convenience by allowing users to control the door lock
remotely via an IP address.
Components and Their Roles:

 ESP32 Microcontroller: The ESP32 is a powerful microcontroller with built-in Wi-

Fi and Bluetooth capabilities. It serves as the brain of the system, handling all the
control logic and communication. When the system is powered on, the ESP32
connects to a Wi-Fi network and generates an IP address. This IP address is used to
access the control interface from a smartphone or web browser.
 5V Relay: The relay acts as a switch that can be controlled by the ESP32. It is used to
control the power supply to the 12V electromagnetic lock. When the relay is
activated, it allows current to flow to the lock, either locking or unlocking the door.
 12V Electromagnetic Lock: This lock is an electrically operated locking mechanism
that requires a 12V power supply to function. When powered, the lock engages,
securing the door. When the power is cut off, the lock disengages, allowing the door
to be opened.
 12V Adapter: The adapter provides the necessary power to the electromagnetic lock.
It converts the standard AC voltage from a wall outlet to the 12V DC required by the
lock.

Operation:
 System Initialization: When the system is powered on, the ESP32 connects to the
configured Wi-Fi network and generates an IP address. This IP address is displayed to
the user, who can then use it to access the control interface.
 Remote Control: The user can access the control interface through a web browser or
a dedicated smartphone app by entering the IP address. The interface allows the user
to send commands to the ESP32 to lock or unlock the door.
 Relay Activation: When the user sends a command to lock or unlock the door, the
ESP32 activates or deactivates the 5V relay accordingly. This controls the power
supply to the electromagnetic lock.
 Lock Operation: Depending on the relay’s state, the electromagnetic lock either
engages or disengages, locking or unlocking the door. The user can monitor the status
of the lock in real-time through the control interface.
Benefits:

 Enhanced Security: The system provides robust security by allowing remote control
and monitoring of the door lock.
 Convenience: Users can lock or unlock their doors from anywhere using a
smartphone or web browser.
 Real-Time Monitoring: The system offers real-time status updates, ensuring users
are always aware of the lock’s state.
 Automation: The system can be programmed to lock or unlock the door based on
predefined conditions, such as time schedules or proximity detection.
