ProgX-Programmable Extension Board

With the rapid increase in the users of internet over the past decade has made internet a part and parcel of life, and IoT is the latest and emerging internet technology. IoT (Internet of things) waves us to the world where we can connect, interact and command any device using the internet. As the technology is developing everything becomes automated. ProgX Programmable extension board using IoT is a prototype that can be controlled by a NodeMCU Esp8266 microcontroller and transform an ordinary home into an automated home without secondary construction. This prototype is designed to be lowcost and expandable allowing a variety of devices to be controlled. It will acquire the signal through Wi-Fi and then Esp8266(µc) will respond according to the signal. ProgX also allows the user to schedule and automate his/her devices by setting a clock-based interrupt using IFTTT. Additionally, a user can check the status of connected devices by a physical LEDs present on the device and storing the data in the cloud service.
