Abstract

The smart window management system uses the Arduino controller to automate the device working on
renewable energy sources. Possibility of using the obtained solutions for the design of wall-mounted power
plants using solar energy is presented. Solar panels can be used not only for their direct purpose (generation
of electricity), but also as a household appliance with a set of various consumer functions. Mounting of such
device on the facade of residential and office buildings modernizes the architectural view and contributes
to the improvement of the cities environment. Using the Arduino controller and its accompanying circuit
boards will help to solve the problem of digitalization of the building windows and connect solar cell based
devices to the Internet via a standard Wi-Fi router. Such actions will ensure the broad demand for such
devices among residents of cities, which will result in a high degree of commercialization of the resulted
work.
