INTRODUCTION
The smart refrigerator is a refrigerator where a lot more can be done with it than just food cooling.

The smart refrigerator can record the products send messages to the cloud and include:

• The status of a certain product so you can keep informed about the products that are in your
refrigerator and the products you need to order soon.

• The Device idea is based on a camera put inside the fridge and with raspberry pi so it can detect the
food present

It will also have an accompanying android application to check the status of the vegetables or fruits
before they run out.

It can also describe the products available in the fridge using cloud service known as AWS Rekognition
and AWS Polly.

The smart fridge concept is already available but require the user input to manually specify the
products. But the challenge here is to build a refrigerator which provides the status of the quantity of
vegetables or fruits present in the fridge based on the weights calculated by the sensors.
TECHNOLOGIES
The technologies used in this project are:
Internet of things (IoT).

The cloud services used in the project are:

Amazon Web Services (AWS) - Rekognition and Polly.

IoT will help to make things easier such as:

• Camera module will capture images and processing will be done by the cloud service provided
by Amazon called AWS Rekognition.
• The processed images will be described using AWS Polly which is a text-to-speech service is
provided by Amazon.
• The Force Sensitive Resistor (FSR) sensor will measure the weights of the vegetables or fruits
present in the fridge and send the data collected to the cloud with the help of Arduino and
raspberry pi.
• The android application will fetch the data collected in the cloud and will give us the status of
the quantity of vegetables and fruits present in the fridge.

APPLICATION

Home Automation:
-Detect Food Shortage.
-Describe the Fridge Contents.
Conclusion:

The main aim of this project is to monitor certain parameters in a

refrigerator and display it to the user. The Smart Refrigerator
module can remotely provide status of the contents/products to
the user present inside it.
It has the capability to provide the status of the fridge items with
a single click of button in an android application and also provide
humidity and temperature values.
It can also describe what food items or products are present in the
fridge.
