    Abstract

    The rise in remote work has created a demand for innovative tools to assist telecommuters in managing their workflow and communications. This paper introduces the Smart Notification Bar, a device affixed atop computer monitors that employs IoT technology, facilitated by Raspberry Pi, to provide real-time visual and sound notifications from various platforms, including Gmail, Twitter, and Zoom. The system is designed to be reliable, easy-to-use, secure, and available 24/7. Utilizing LEDs and a buzzer, the device offers immediate visual and auditory cues for unread Gmail messages, pre-programmed Twitter notifications, and Zoom meeting statuses.Beyond enhancing personal productivity by consolidating notifications and reducing distractions, the Smart Notification Bar serves as a non-intrusive indicator for household members to know when the user is engaged in a video conference and should not be disturbed. This is particularly useful for remote workers with hearing challenges or sound phobias.
