THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING

Introduction

In today’s world, where convenience and efficient, and comfort, have

become essential aspects of everyday living. With the rapid of advancement

of technology, people increasingly rely on smart devices that can

automatically adapt to their needs and [Link] device offers a more

intelligent, energy efficient, and used friendly solution compared to traditional

electric fans that depend solely on manual switches or constant adjustment.

Instead of relying on the users to turn it on change its setting, the sensorized

electric fan with humidity sensors operates by responding to environment

within its location.

Sensorized Electric Fan was conducted to develop an automated

electic Fan system that can respond to changes in humidity levels in a specific

environment. Traditional Electric Fans require manual operation, which lead to

inconvenience and unnecessary power consumption. This is not only

improves convenience but also reduces energy wastes. What makes this

device even more advanced is the inclusion of humidity [Link] sensors

allow fan to monitor changes in humidity levels detecting when the air

becomes too moist, warm or uncomfortable when the humidity increase the

fan will automatic adjust its speed to maintain the proper airflow and improve

the quality of the indoor environment.

Especially here in the Philippines because of the tropical climates.

Humidity can rise quickly during rainy seasons or in enclosed spaces whit

poor ventilation. A Sensorized electric is far more than just a simple cooling

device. It represent modern technology, environmental awareness and

practical functionality. It enhance comfort and promotes energy conservation,

reduces manual efforts making it especially useful for household, office,

classrooms and other indoor spaces. The Sensorized electric fan is an ideal

option for users who desire a hassle free , responsive and effective means by

cooling their environment reflecting the shift towards intelligent home systems.

Sensorized Electric Fan also develop an automated electric fan system that

can respond humidity levels while also cleaning itself through the use of

sensor technology and automation. Traditional Electric Fan requires manual

operations and regular cleaning which may inconvenient and time consuming

for users.

Objective of the study

The objective if this of the project sensors is to provide a convenient,

energy efficient, and comfortable cooling solution not only in home but also

classrooms, bedrooms, office.

1. To Design the Sensorized Electric Fan

2. To fabricate the Sensorized Electric Fan

3. To test and Evaluate in terms;

3.1 EFFECTIVENESS

3.2 DURABILITY

3.3 POWER CONSUMPTION

Significance of the study

The significant of this study importance across various domain

particular for the businessman, consumer

BUSINESSMAN – The Sensorized electric fan has significant because

it introduce a cost- efficient and energy saving solution for workplace,

office, and business establishment, by using this businessman can

produce more product because it’s convenient and less cost electrical

consumption. It improves workplace comport, and leading to a healthier

and more productive environment for employees and consumer. And

also, both are beneficial to overall business operations, by adapting

this technology businessman can also promote an modern and

ecofriendly image. This can contribute to improve brand reputation and

may attract environmentally customers or co-business.

CONSUMER - The automatic electric fan offers and benefits that

enhance comfort and convenience. This removes the need of a manual

control to ensures the consumer experience the right amount

ventilation at all times. Consumers benefits by proving a smarter and

more efficient alternative compare to the traditional electric fan,

FUTURE RESEARCHERS - The output of the study may serve as the

guide and reference for them to conduct similar studies and can

improves the production.

Time and place of the study

The research proposal entitled Automatic electric fan and motion with

humidity sensor is being presented by the student of BSIT

ELECTRICAL. This study will take place in Northwest Samar State

University College of Agriculture, and it set to be carried out during

school year 2025 – 2026.

SCOPE AND LIMITATION

This study focuses on creating an Sensorized electric fan that can

operate on its own by self cleaning mechanism using Arduino Uno,

sensor technology and can create an Automated Electric fan system

that can respond to changes in humidity levels. The study includes

assembling the hardware, writing the for the microcontroller, and

testing the system in small indoor area. The prototype is designed for

small indoors area only and may not work as effectively in large areas

or open space. The performance of the systems relies heavily on the

sensitivity and place of the sensors, which means incorrect installation

can may affect readings, humidity sensors has only basic function and

does not include advanced features such as wireless, smart technology

or mobile application. This study is also limited short term testing

durability, maintenance requirements.

Definitions of terms

Material cost analysis- A cost benefit analysis is a systematic process that

business use to analyse which the decision make to forgo. The cost analysis

sum the potential reward expected from the situation or action and then

subtracts the total costs associated with the taking action.

Prototype- An original model on which something patterned

Fabricate- Construct or manufacture especially from the prepared

components.

Evaluation- Estimation of something worth, especially on one carried out by a

professional appraise.

Functionality- The measures of functional a device or invention.
