Wifi Autogate Controller 2 Channels – Smartlife

I installed Wifi Autogate controller at my autogate because I want to be able to open my autogate before I reach my home. So when I reach home the gate already open so I just need to park my car.

Besides that, normal autogate remote control hard to open as I need to be near to the autogate box and press few times the button before I can open.

I choose Wifi autogate controller that supports SmartLife application because I use SmartLife to control my ceiling fan, TV and airconds. So want to use same application.

Wifi Autogate Controller – 2 Channels

I bought 2 channels so the controller can control both gates means I can open either left or right gate individually.

Arduino Beginner Starter Kits Arrived!

I bought Arduino Starter Kits from Lazada. I bought it to teach my kids on programming from young age. Furthermore it is school holiday soon. So I want to expose them to new activities instead of just playing iPad, read books, play drums or gyms.

I did compare between Rasberry Pi & Arduino. From my findings Arduino is the easiest one especially for kids.

I bought 3 items.
1) Arduino UNO R3 Advance Beginner Learning Sensor Starter Kit v5
2) Arduino 4WD 2 Layer Smart Car Robot Chassis Kit Base Set
3) Arduino Range Finder Ultrasound Ultrasonic Sensor HC-SR04 HC SR 04

The Arduino Starter Kits comes with lots of electronics components such as LED, resistors, breadboard, light and temperature sensors, stepper motor, USB cable, LCD display and many more.

In total, I bought all the items for RM158++ and it arrived on time and in good conditions.

Before I can teach my kids, I need to learn first how to use Arduino. Surprisingly there is a lot of tutorial for beginners on the internet and lots of cool projects.
