Hi guys,

Today I'm going to tell you how make a smart tap. This smart tap is very use full to us in these day, because we live with the Corona or Covid 19 virus. So it is a very important health advice to wash your hands. When we wash the hands we have to touch the tap so this virus spread from the tap. This tap is a solution for that problem.

when we go near to the tap it detect somebody is here and it opens the solenoid valve so water is come out. When we go from there it detect nobody is there and it close the valve so water can't come out. Also we didn't want touch the tap. In this tap no danger to spread any virus.

EXPANDED TECHNICAL DETAILS

Touchless Sanitary Automation

This project provides a retrofittable, hygienic solution for home faucets, reducing water waste and preventing the spread of germs.

  • Infrared Proximity Mapping: Uses an IR proximity sensor (TCRT5000 or similar) mounted near the tap. When the Arduino detects a hand within the 5cm "Action Zone," it initiates the water flow.
  • Solenoid Flow Control: Manages a 12V electronic water solenoid valve via a high-current MOSFET. The water flows only as long as the hand is detected, providing instant on/off response.

Efficiency

  • Timed Safety Shutoff: Includes a "Maximum Flow" timer (e.g., 30 seconds). If the sensor is blocked or triggered accidentally, the Arduino automatically shuts off the water to prevent flooding.
