Automatic Clothesline

Chapter 3
Discussion of findings This chapter discusses the answers to the objectives raised in this study.
Remotely-Controlled Automatic Clothesline The current system is a clothesline presented in mechanically controlled by magnets. It uses X-10 module interfaced with the stamp to provide power to the clothesline from a remote location. It uses a phototransistor that acts as a motion sensor for clothes moving the line. In figure 1, it shows the software flow chart of the existing system.
