Introduction: DIY Door Sensor for Security Using ESP8266

Secure your home using a Smart door sensor completely design using open source technologies.

In this video, we will make a device that will detect whether the door is open or close and sens the information to your smartphone using the BLYNK server, with this system you can provide security to your home from burglary.
