Wine Cellar Climate Monitor Pro Kit with ESP32 + Relay
Wine Cellar Climate Monitor Pro Kit with ESP32 + Relay – Automate Lighting and Fan Based on Room Activity
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Turn your wine cellar into an intelligent space that reads the room’s activity and responds automatically. Using a camera and machine learning on the ESP32-CAM, this project classifies whether the cellar is being used for working, relaxing, or sleeping—then dynamically controls lighting and a fan through a relay for the ideal microclimate. It’s advanced home automation that brings computer vision and IoT directly to your bottle storage.
What You'll Build
You’ll assemble a compact unit that mounts inside the cellar. The ESP32-CAM continuously captures images and runs an activity classifier. Based on the detected mode, it triggers the appropriate relay channels to set dimmed or bright lighting and toggles a ventilation fan. The DHT22 and OLED display keep real-time temperature and humidity data visible, and the whole system operates autonomously once deployed.
What You'll Learn
- Configure the ESP32-CAM for secure image capture and local inference using a pre-trained activity model
- Program relay control logic to switch AC loads like lights and fans in response to AI-driven decisions
- Interface temperature/humidity sensor data via DHT22 and display it on a 0.96-inch OLED
- Manage power with buck converters and suppress inductive spikes using flyback diodes for safe relay operation

Who This Kit Is For
Designed for final-year B.Tech ECE and EEE students taking on smart home capstone projects or Smart India Hackathon prototypes. Also ideal for advanced ATL Tinkering Lab mentors looking to demonstrate real-world computer vision and automation to senior secondary students. If you’re from IIT, NIT, VIT, or BITS Pilani and need a ready-to-build IoT solution with edge-AI, this kit eliminates component guesswork.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
The AI companion walks you through every connection and code upload. You can also message via WhatsApp for a human backup response during working hours.
Do I need prior experience with ESP32 or image classification?
Familiarity with Arduino IDE and basic C++ is recommended. The AI companion includes a dedicated module to fast-track your understanding of TensorFlow Lite Micro on the ESP32-CAM.
Can the trained model be adapted for other rooms?
Yes, the project covers how to capture custom scenes and re-train the activity classifier using free cloud tools, so you can tailor it to a study, bedroom, or laboratory.
What WiFi router specifications are required?
The ESP32-CAM works with any 2.4 GHz b/g/n router. A stable signal near the wine cellar is essential, and the AI companion includes a network diagnostic script for quick validation.
Wine Storage — ESP32-CAM classifies room activity (working, relaxing, sleeping) and adjusts lighting and fan.
