Hello & welcome to High Voltages,
I got excellent results on my last video coronavirus
- prevention using Arduino.
I have mentioned a few DIY projects that can
help us prevent this virus.
If you haven't watch that, you can watch that
by clicking the link in the description.
With the lockdown in different countries,
people are staying at homes and making exciting
and creative projects to avoid this coronavirus.
Social distance and washing your hands are
the bits of advice that we should follow to
stop the spread of this COVID-19 virus.
In this situation, Arduino and Raspberry pi,
with the help of different commonly used sensors,
are acting as saviors.
These boards are helping us to build practical
projects that can help us to detect the viral
disease, assisting in the social distance
with the effected ones, reminding us to wash
our hands without actually touching anything
and forbidding us to touch our face.
In this video, I am going to show a few more
projects that help prevent corona or COVID-19.
The first project is the coronavirus doorbell
by Nick Bandini, which is an excellent project
for keeping yourself away from the virus affected
people.
He used the airport method by scanning his
visitor's body temperature as soon as he rings
the bell.
If body temperature is average, the bell will
ring; otherwise, an alarm will be triggered.
He made this using Arduino Nano, IR temperature
sensor MLX90614, buzzer, and Mp3 player.
According to him, it is a beginner level project,
and instructions are available at hackster.

Moving on to our next project, Don't touch
your face by Mike Rigsby, Which is a wearable
device using a tilt switch and a buzzer.
Whenever you take your hand near your face,
it will start buzzing, reminding you of not
touching your face.
It is also a beginners level project and will
take around 60 minutes to complete.
The project instructions are available at
hackster.

There is another project which can update
you with the number of cases of COVID-19 by
Alan Wang.
He uses LED modules and ESP8266.
By using the COVID-19 API, he made this live
updater, and like other projects, it is easy
to make.
Instructions are given on hackster.
YOu can find the link in the description.
Also, in the end, I will advise you to stay
at home and spend your time reading, enhancing
your skills, and do creative projects.
It is a Chinese proverb that crisis comes
with opportunities, and it is the best time
to come up with ideas and by using your skills
and educations to implement it and hit the
bull's eye.
