Abstract
This work is used to bridge the gap between consumer and oil supplier by building a smart monitoring system with the help of ESP8266 (Wi-Fi module) and Alexa (Intelligent AI based Virtual Assistant). In the existing system, many oil tanks are inaccessible or buried under the ground. We came up with the solution of having a smart monitoring system where there is no longer need to read the oil level in the heating oil tank manually. It can be done with the help of an ultrasonic sensor. When the consumer requests to check the oil level, ESP8266 retrieves the oil level from the ultrasonic sensor and sends it to Alexa.
