Parcel Delivery Detection – IOT ( Telegram Notification )

Hardware Requirements:

1. NodeMCU ESP8266
2. Infrared sensor module (like IR proximity sensor)
3. Breadboard and jumper wires
4. 5V power supply (from NodeMCU or external source)

Hardware Connections:

1. Infrared Sensor Connections:


o VCC: Connect to 3.3V pin of the NodeMCU.
o GND: Connect to the GND pin of the NodeMCU.
o OUT (Digital Output): Connect to D1 (GPIO5) pin of the NodeMCU.
2. NodeMCU to Power Source:
o Connect the NodeMCU to a USB power adapter or to your computer via a
USB cable.

Telegram Bot Setup:

1. Create a Telegram Bot:


o Open Telegram, and search for "BotFather".
o Start a chat with BotFather and use /newbot to create a new bot.
o Follow the prompts, and you’ll receive a Telegram Bot Token. Save it for
later use.
2. Get the Chat ID:
o Start a chat with your bot and send a message.
o Visit https://api.telegram.org/bot<YOUR_BOT_TOKEN>/getUpdates,
replacing <YOUR_BOT_TOKEN> with your actual bot token.
o You will receive a JSON response containing your Chat ID. Note this for use
in the code.
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <WiFiClientSecure.h>
#include <ESP8266HTTPClient.h>

const char* ssid = "YOUR_SSID"; // Your WiFi SSID


const char* password = "YOUR_PASSWORD"; // Your WiFi password

const char* telegramBotToken = "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN"; // Replace with your Telegram Bot


Token
const char* chatID = "YOUR_CHAT_ID"; // Replace with your Chat ID

const int irSensorPin = D1; // GPIO5 (D1 pin)

void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
pinMode(irSensorPin, INPUT);

WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
Serial.print("Connecting to WiFi...");
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(1000);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("\nWiFi connected!");
}

void loop() {
if (digitalRead(irSensorPin) == LOW) { // Assuming LOW is when an object is detected
sendTelegramMessage("Parcel detected in your post box!");
delay(5000); // Wait for 5 seconds to avoid multiple notifications for the same detection
}
}

void sendTelegramMessage(String message) {


if (WiFi.status() == WL_CONNECTED) {
WiFiClientSecure client;
client.setInsecure(); // Disable certificate verification for simplicity

HTTPClient https;
String url = "https://api.telegram.org/bot" + String(telegramBotToken) + "/sendMessage?
chat_id=" + String(chatID) + "&text=" + message;

if (https.begin(client, url)) {
int httpCode = https.GET();
if (httpCode > 0) {
Serial.printf("Telegram message sent, response code: %d\n", httpCode);
} else {
Serial.printf("Error sending message: %s\n", https.errorToString(httpCode).c_str());
}
https.end();
}
} else {
Serial.println("WiFi Disconnected");
}
}
Explanation:

1. WiFi Setup:
o Replace "YOUR_SSID" and "YOUR_PASSWORD" with your WiFi credentials.
2. Telegram Setup:
o Replace "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN" and "YOUR_CHAT_ID" with your bot token and
chat ID from Telegram.
3. IR Sensor Logic:
o The code checks the status of the IR sensor. If a parcel is detected (LOW
signal), it sends a notification through Telegram.
o delay(5000) is used to prevent multiple messages from being sent for the
same parcel.

Testing and Running:

1. Power the NodeMCU and ensure it connects to WiFi.


2. Place the IR sensor inside your post box. When the sensor detects a parcel (meaning
an obstruction in its range), it will trigger the notification.
3. Telegram Notification: Check your Telegram for messages from the bot.
