Password based circuit breaker using gsm module

A password-based circuit breaker using a GSM module is a security device that can be controlled remotely using a password sent via SMS. Here's a basic overview of how it works:

Components:

GSM module (e.g. SIM900A or SIM800L)
Microcontroller (e.g. Arduino or ESP32)
Relay module
Power supply
Breadboard and jumper wires

Circuit Diagram:

The circuit consists of a GSM module, a microcontroller, and a relay module. The GSM module is connected to the microcontroller, which is programmed to receive SMS commands and control the relay module.

How it works:

The user sends an SMS message to the GSM module with a specific password (e.g. "1234").
The microcontroller receives the SMS message and checks if the password is correct.
If the password is correct, the microcontroller sends a signal to the relay module to turn on or off the circuit.
The relay module receives the signal and switches the circuit on or off accordingly.

Code:

Here's an example code for an Arduino-based implementation:

#include <GSM.h>

const char* password = "1234"; // set the password here
const int relayPin = 2; // set the relay pin here

GSM gsm;
Relay relay(relayPin);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  gsm.begin();
  relay.begin();
}

void loop() {
  if (gsm.available()) {
    char incoming[100];
    gsm.read(incoming, 100);
    if (strcmp(incoming, password) == 0) {
      relay.toggle();
      Serial.println("Password correct, circuit switched");
    } else {
      Serial.println("Invalid password");
    }
  }
}

Note:

This is a basic example and you may need to modify the code to suit your specific requirements.
Make sure to set the password correctly and keep it secure.
You can also add additional features such as timer-based circuit switching or multiple passwords for different users.

Advantages:

Remote control of the circuit using SMS
Secure password-based access control
Can be used for various applications such as home automation, industrial control, or security systems

Disadvantages:

Requires a GSM network connection and a SIM card
May have limited range and coverage depending on the GSM network
Can be vulnerable to hacking or unauthorized access if the password is compromised.
