AI Smart Mirror with Health Recommendation System

Absolutely . I can structure this as a complete final-year/major IoT + AI project document covering the ESP32 hardware, Smart Mirror, AI health recommendation layer, n8n agentic automation, Telegram voice alerts, Google Sheets logging, ThingSpeak dashboard, webpage, circuit schematic, data-flow diagrams, and source code.

Proposed project title

AI Smart Mirror with Health Recommendation System

Agentic IoT using ESP32 + AI Agent + n8n Automation + Telegram Voice Alerts + Google Sheets + ThingSpeak


1. Project overview

The proposed system is an AI-powered IoT smart mirror built around an ESP32. The mirror collects environmental and user-related measurements from sensors, displays useful information on a web interface/mirror display, sends sensor data to the cloud, and uses an AI agent to generate contextual recommendations.

The automation layer is implemented using n8n.

The overall system can:

  • Read temperature and humidity.

  • Monitor air-quality-related parameters.

  • Measure ambient light.

  • Optionally measure heart rate/SpO₂ using a suitable sensor.

  • Detect the user's presence.

  • Display sensor information on the Smart Mirror.

  • Send sensor data from ESP32 to an IoT/web server.

  • Store historical measurements in Google Sheets.

  • Publish measurements to ThingSpeak.

  • Trigger n8n workflows.

  • Pass relevant data to an AI agent.

  • Generate health/wellness-oriented recommendations.

  • Send notifications through Telegram.

  • Convert notification text into a voice message where a TTS service is used.

  • Provide an AI-assisted webpage/dashboard.

  • Maintain an event/history log.

Important: The health component should be presented as a wellness/recommendation system, not a medical diagnostic device. Sensor readings can be inaccurate and recommendations should not be represented as medical diagnoses.

5. How the complete system works

Step 1 — Sensor measurement

The ESP32 periodically reads the connected sensors.

Example:

{
  "device_id": "SMART_MIRROR_01",
  "temperature": 29.4,
  "humidity": 62,
  "air_quality": 245,
  "heart_rate": 78,
  "spo2": 97,
  "light": 430,
  "presence": true
}

Step 2 — ESP32 preprocessing

The ESP 32 checks whether the sensor readings are valid.

For example:

Temperature = 29.4 °C
Humidity    = 62 %
Heart Rate  = 78 BPM
SpO2        = 97 %

The ESP32 then creates a JSON packet.

Step 3 — Internet transmission

ESP32 connects to Wi-Fi and sends the packet using HTTP.

ESP32
  │
  │ HTTP POST
  ▼
n8n Webhook

Step 4 — n8n receives the data

The n8n Webhook node receives the JSON.

Webhook
   ↓
Validate Data
   ↓
Normalize Data
   ↓
Store Data

Step 5 — Google Sheets

The workflow records historical data.

Example:

Timestamp Temp Humidity HR SpO₂ Air Quality
20:01 29.4 62 78 97 245
20:02 29.5 63 80 97 251
20:03 29.6 63 81 96 263

This gives the project a simple historical database.


6. ThingSpeak integration

ThingSpeak can be used as the IoT visualization layer.

For example:

Field 1 → Temperature
Field 2 → Humidity
Field 3 → Heart Rate
Field 4 → SpO2
Field 5 → Air Quality
Field 6 → Light

Conceptually:

7. n8n automation workflow

A practical workflow can be designed as follows:

                 │ ESP32 Device │
                 └──────┬───────┘

                             ▼
                         Voice Alert

8. AI agent

The AI agent should not simply receive raw sensor values.

Instead, n8n should provide structured context.

Example:

{
  "temperature": 31.2,
  "humidity": 72,
  "air_quality": 390,
  "heart_rate": 92,
  "spo2": 97,
  "presence": true,
  "time": "20:10"
}

The AI agent can then generate a response such as:

Current environment:
Temperature: 31.2°C
Humidity: 72%
Air-quality indicator: elevated

Recommendation:
Consider improving ventilation and reducing indoor heat.
Stay hydrated according to your normal needs.

Physiological readings are informational only and are not a medical diagnosis.

The important design principle is:

Sensor data
     ↓
Rules / validation
     ↓
AI contextualization
     ↓
Human-readable recommendation

rather than:

Sensor data → AI → medical diagnosis

9. Agentic behavior

The "agentic IoT" component can be implemented as a controlled decision loop.

              ┌───────────────┐
              │ Sensor Event  │
              └───────┬───────┘
                      ▼
              ┌───────────────┐
              │ Analyze State │
              └───────┬───────┘

              ┌───────────────┐
              │ Select Action │
              └───────┬───────┘
                      ▼
        ┌─────────────┼─────────────┐
        ▼             ▼             ▼
   Log Data       Notify User    Control Device
        │             │             │
        └─────────────┼─────────────┘
                      ▼
                 Observe Again

For example:

IF air-quality value is elevated
        ↓
Create recommendation
        ↓
Send Telegram notification
        ↓
Log event
        ↓
Wait
        ↓
Read sensor again

10. Telegram notification

Example workflow:

n8n
 │
 ▼
AI Agent
 │
 ▼
Generate message
 │
 ▼
Telegram Bot
 │
 ▼
User's phone

Example:

Smart Mirror Alert
Indoor air-quality indicator has increased.
Consider improving ventilation.

For voice alerts:

AI Agent
   ↓
Text recommendation
   ↓
TTS service
   ↓
Audio file
   ↓
Telegram Bot
   ↓
User

Telegram therefore becomes both a notification channel and a remote interaction interface.


11. Telegram conversational control

The system can also be made bidirectional.

                 AI Agent
                     │
            ┌────────┴────────┐
            ▼                 ▼
       Google Sheets      ThingSpeak
            │                 │
            └────────┬────────┘
                     ▼
                AI response
                     │
                     ▼
                 Telegram

Example commands:

/status
/today
/temperature
/humidity
/health
/airquality
/recommendation

You can also implement natural-language questions:

User:
"How was the temperature today?"

        ↓

Telegram → n8n → Google Sheets → AI Agent

        ↓

Telegram:
"The recorded temperature ranged from
28.4°C to 32.1°C during the available
measurements."

12. Smart Mirror webpage

The web interface can contain:

Power considerations

Do not connect arbitrary 5 V sensor outputs directly to ESP32 GPIO pins.

ESP32 GPIO is generally a 3.3 V logic environment, so the voltage levels and power requirements of each sensor/module must be checked before wiring.


16. ESP32 firmware structure

The firmware should be divided into functions:

setup()
│
├── initializeSerial()
├── initializeSensors()
├── connectWiFi()
└── initializeWebServer()

loop()
│
├── readSensors()
├── validateReadings()
├── updateDisplay()
├── sendData()
├── handleWebRequests()
└── delay()

17. Example ESP32 code

Below is a starting firmware architecture using an ESP32 and DHT sensor.

#include <WiFi.h>
#include <HTTPClient.h>
#include <ArduinoJson.h>
#include <DHT.h>

#define DHT_PIN 4
#define DHT_TYPE DHT22

DHT dht(DHT_PIN, DHT_TYPE);

const char* WIFI_SSID = "YOUR_WIFI";
const char* WIFI_PASSWORD = "YOUR_PASSWORD";

const char* N8N_WEBHOOK =
    "https://YOUR_N8N_SERVER/webhook/smart-mirror";

unsigned long lastSend = 0;
const unsigned long SEND_INTERVAL = 30000;

void connectWiFi()
{
    WiFi.begin(WIFI_SSID, WIFI_PASSWORD);

    Serial.print("Connecting");

    while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED)
    {
        delay(500);
        Serial.print(".");
    }

    Serial.println();
    Serial.println("WiFi connected");
    Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
}

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(115200);

    dht.begin();

    connectWiFi();
}

void sendSensorData(float temperature,
                    float humidity)
{
    if (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED)
        return;

    HTTPClient http;

    http.begin(N8N_WEBHOOK);
    http.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");

    StaticJsonDocument<512> doc;

    doc["device_id"] = "SMART_MIRROR_01";
    doc["temperature"] = temperature;
    doc["humidity"] = humidity;
    doc["timestamp"] = millis();

    String json;

    serializeJson(doc, json);

    int responseCode = http.POST(json);

    Serial.print("HTTP response: ");
    Serial.println(responseCode);

    http.end();
}

void loop()
{
    if (millis() - lastSend >= SEND_INTERVAL)
    {
        lastSend = millis();

        float temperature = dht.readTemperature();
        float humidity = dht.readHumidity();

        if (isnan(temperature) || isnan(humidity))
        {
            Serial.println("Sensor read failed");
            return;
        }

        Serial.print("Temperature: ");
        Serial.println(temperature);

        Serial.print("Humidity: ");
        Serial.println(humidity);

        sendSensorData(temperature, humidity);
    }
}

This is intentionally a foundation, rather than pretending one sketch can cover every hardware configuration. MAX30102, MQ-series sensors, displays, secure authentication, OTA updates, and production error handling should be added according to the actual hardware selected.


18. n8n workflow design

A practical n8n workflow:

[Webhook]
    │
    ▼
[Code: Validate]
    │
    ▼
[Set: Normalize Data]
    │
    ├───────────────┐
    │               │
    ▼               ▼
[Google Sheets] [ThingSpeak]
    │
    ▼
[AI Agent]
    │
    ▼
[IF]
 ┌──┴──┐
YES    NO
 │      │
 ▼      ▼
[Telegram] [End]
 │
 ▼
[TTS]
 │
 ▼
[Telegram Audio]

19. Example n8n validation code

A Code node could perform basic validation:

const data = $json;

const required = [
  "device_id",
  "temperature",
  "humidity"
];

for (const field of required) {
  if (data[field] === undefined) {
    throw new Error(`Missing field: ${field}`);
  }
}

return [{
  json: {
    device_id: String(data.device_id),

    temperature: Number(data.temperature),
    humidity: Number(data.humidity),

    heart_rate:
      data.heart_rate !== undefined
        ? Number(data.heart_rate)
        : null,

    spo2:
      data.spo2 !== undefined
        ? Number(data.spo2)
        : null,

    air_quality:
      data.air_quality !== undefined
        ? Number(data.air_quality)
        : null,

    received_at: new Date().toISOString()
  }
}];

20. Rule engine before AI

A strong project design is to combine deterministic rules + AI.

Example:

const d = $json;

let alerts = [];

if (d.temperature > 35) {
    alerts.push("High environmental temperature");
}

if (d.humidity > 80) {
    alerts.push("High humidity");
}

if (d.air_quality > 400) {
    alerts.push("Elevated air-quality sensor reading");
}

return [{
    json: {
        ...d,
        alerts,
        alert_required: alerts.length > 0
    }
}];

The AI then converts the structured event into understandable language.

This is more controllable than allowing the AI to make unrestricted decisions directly from raw sensor values.


21. AI Agent prompt

A suitable system prompt can be structured like this:

You are the AI assistant for an IoT smart mirror.

Your job is to interpret sensor information and provide
short, understandable wellness/environment recommendations.

Rules:

1. Never claim to diagnose a disease.
2. Never claim that a sensor reading is medically definitive.
3. Treat physiological measurements as informational.
4. Clearly distinguish environmental information from
   physiological information.
5. If a reading appears unusual, recommend appropriate
   caution and, where appropriate, professional advice.
6. Do not invent sensor values.
7. Do not modify the numerical readings.
8. Use only the data provided to you.
9. Keep Telegram alerts concise.
10. Mention when sensor reliability or measurement context
    may affect interpretation.

Input:

Temperature: {{$json.temperature}}
Humidity: {{$json.humidity}}
Air Quality: {{$json.air_quality}}
Heart Rate: {{$json.heart_rate}}
SpO2: {{$json.spo2}}

Generate:

- Current status
- Relevant observation
- Practical recommendation
- Safety note when appropriate

22. Google Sheets database design

Create columns such as:

timestamp
device_id
temperature
humidity
air_quality
heart_rate
spo2
light
presence
alert
ai_recommendation

Example:

2026-09-29 20:40:12
SMART_MIRROR_01
29.4
62
245
78
97
430
true
false
"Environment is warm..."

This provides a simple historical record for demonstrations and analysis.


23. ThingSpeak channel

A possible channel structure:

ThingSpeak Channel

Field 1 → Temperature
Field 2 → Humidity
Field 3 → Heart Rate
Field 4 → SpO2
Field 5 → Air Quality
Field 6 → Light Level
Field 7 → Presence

Dashboard:

29. Security architecture

This part is important for a good project report.

Do not hard-code sensitive production credentials into publicly shared source code.

Use:

ESP32
 │
 │ HTTPS
 ▼
n8n
 │
 ├── Credentials
 ├── API keys
 ├── Telegram token
 └── AI provider credentials

Recommended protections:

  • HTTPS where supported.

  • Authentication on webhook endpoints.

  • Secret/API-key validation.

  • Separate development and production credentials.

  • No Telegram bot token in GitHub.

  • No Wi-Fi password in published source.

  • Restrict n8n access.

  • Validate all incoming sensor data.

  • Rate-limit public endpoints.

  • Avoid sending unnecessary personal information to external AI services.


30. Fault handling

The project should explicitly handle:

Wi-Fi failure

Wi-Fi lost
   ↓
Reconnect
   ↓
If unavailable
   ↓
Continue local operation

Sensor failure

Sensor read
    ↓
Invalid?
  /   \
YES   NO
 |     |
Error   Continue

n8n unavailable

ESP32 → n8n
       ↓
Connection failure
       ↓
Store/retry locally
       ↓
Send when connection returns

AI unavailable

The system should still be capable of:

Sensor → Rule Engine → Basic Alert

without depending completely on the AI service.


31. Project modules

For your documentation, divide the project into these modules:

Module 1 — Smart Mirror

Responsible for:

  • Display

  • Clock

Build it in this order rather than trying to construct everything simultaneously:

1. ESP32
   ↓
2. Temperature/humidity sensor
   ↓
3. Wi-Fi
   ↓
4. JSON data
   ↓
5. n8n Webhook
   ↓
6. Google Sheets

11. Web dashboard
   ↓
12. Smart Mirror display
   ↓
13. Additional health/environment sensors
   ↓
14. Complete integration
