RestroBot

RestroBot is a facebook messenger bot which let's you search for restaurants at any location. Click the get started button to kickstart your restaurant search. Currently, there are 2 ways available to make your searches:
  1. First one is by selecting categories and then sharing the location.
  2. While the other one is simple where you simply need to ask a simple query e.g. "show me the dinner restaurant in chandini chowk".
Whenever you feel you are not able to search, simple type "help me" in the chat and RestroBot will show you the detailed examples of queries to try.

Example searches for way 1:

You: show me the categories of restaurants
RestrBot: Here is the list of categories:
You: Tap on any category you like
Restrobot: Please share the location or pin the location you want to search the restaurants in:
You: Share the location
Restrobot: Shows you the list of restaurants in that location.

Example searches for way 2:

  • simple search asking for dinner restaurants at any location.
Type: "show me the dinner restaurants in Chandini chowk"
  • search for cafes at any location but sort results by rating
Type: "show me the best rated cafes in Connaught place"
  • search for any category of restaurants at any location sorted by price
Type: "show me the cheaper dineouts in Santa Clara"

Privacy

The RestroBot was a weekend project and is just fun. And we are not storing any user data/information/location. This only allows you to search for restaurants at any location. Our applications is hosted on heroku. We use a secure connection between facebook and heroku. We may anonymously keep track of sender id in future. None of the data will ever be shared, except for maybe some anonymous statistics in the future.

Time scheduled electric switch controlled with Blynk app

Most of the times when we go out of home for some days, we think of having some device that could switch ON/OFF (let's say)  Refrigerator  (or any other important appliance)   for some hours during the day. Today, we are going to make such time scheduled electric switch which switches ON/OFF at times which we set the in our Blynk app. Woah! Let's begin! Things we need: Hardware: 5V relay NodeMCU Jumper wires Breadboard 3V3 and 5V power source Electrical Wires Software: Arduino IDE BLYNK app It's circuit is same as we have created for our Smart Switch . So, if you already have that circuit set up, go ahead with Blynk app set up and Start playing. Circuit: Connections: D5 pin of NodeMCU connects to IN1 pin of 5V relay. 3V3 of NodeMCU connects to 3V3 powers source and GND to GND. Vcc of relay connects to 5V source and GND to GND. Live wire is connected directly to appliance. Neutral wire from source comes to relay NC pin and another w...

Karna - The hapless Mahabharata Warrior

“Karma is a bitch.”  These must be the truest words ever spoken. Karna was so unfortunate because of his Karma. In his previous birth, Karna was a demon by name “Dambhodbhava”. He was an Asura, who like every other asura, wanted to be powerful and had a ridiculous desire to become Immortal. So, one fine day, he started to pray for Sun God “Surya Deva”. Lord Surya was impressed by his devotion and intensity of his “ Tapas  (Deep meditation)” and asked him what his desire was. Dambhodbhava who was greedy for power asked Surya to grant him the one boon no one could grant i.e. Immortality. “Everything that takes birth must die” . This was the First Law Of the Universe and Surya told the asura, he can ask for anything except Immortality. Dambodhbhava was crestfallen as he thought that all the Tapas was a waste of time. Dambodhbhava unwilling to give up, was lost in thought for a long time. He was determined to go home immortal one way or the other. So, he ...

Automate irrigation system over internet

Hello Sailors! We are back with one more awesome IOT project where we are going to automate irrigation system. The system  can be used in homes to water the plants any time and can also be scheduled so even if you forget to water plants (lazy like me), just schedule the device and your plants get water regularly. That's another great use of IOT, aah! Overview We are going to control an AC water pump using NodeMCU/ESP8266 and blynk application. The Blynk app will have a switch controlling the pump to switch ON/OFF and an Eventor widget to schedule our pump switching with time. This way plants can be irrigated by manual switching or by scheduling with time. Things we need Hardware NodeMCU/ESP8266 5V relay Water Pump Water pipes (0.5 inch) Water flow splitter Water container Pipe clamps Jumper Wires 5V and 3.3V power supply Software Arduino IDE Blynk app If you have already setup the  Time Scheduled electric switch   go ahead to setup the water...
