The advent of Internet of Things (IoT) technology has paved the way for innovative solutions in various domains, including aquarium maintenance. An IoT-based automated water changing system emerges as a promising solution to ensure a clean and healthy environment for aquarium inhabitants, thereby alleviating basic chores, particularly for aquarium hobbyists. Conventional solutions often fall short in reliability and affordability, merely focusing on water replacement without addressing other crucial factors. In contrast, this novel system integrates cutting-edge features, leveraging wireless monitoring facilitated by Home Assistant and incorporating water seasoning capabilities. Unlike existing systems, which lack comprehensive monitoring, this solution monitors a plethora of water parameters including water height, pH levels, salinity, temperature, and dissolved solids. This holistic approach enables the system to make informed decisions based on real-time data. Utilizing the gathered data, the system employs advanced algorithms to determine requisite actions. For instance, upon detecting a lower water level, it triggers the water vault to replenish water, ensuring optimal water volume for aquatic life. Additionally, it regulates temperature through heating and cooling mechanisms, ensuring the maintenance of ideal conditions for aquatic organisms. Moreover, the system proactively addresses anomalies by generating indicator requests for parameters beyond its operational scope, thereby facilitating timely intervention by the user. By amalgamating state-of-the-art IoT technology with comprehensive water monitoring and proactive decision making capabilities, this automated water changing system represents a significant advancement in aquarium maintenance, promising enhanced efficiency, reliability, and ultimately, a healthier aquatic ecosystem.

Intravenous therapy is the standard medical procedure that is used for administering medications directly into the vein. The automated drug infusion devices are designed in such a way that they provide exact medication doses with safety measures included. On the other hand, this is why they must be regularly watched by healthcare providers. This paper introduces a cloud-based IoT drug infusion system that was developed to address remote patient care needs. This system enables remote, accurate, and secure management of medication delivery. Its key contributions include allowing healthcare providers to control and monitor IV infusions remotely while maintaining safety features. The system consists of a microcontroller that is responsible for data processing, a control system that oversees infusion rate regulation, and an IoT-based framework that allows for remote monitoring and alerts via a user-friendly web interface. This new approach to care will therefore improve patient care by providing remote management of medications.
