Senior Switchman is a Python-based application designed to simulate a 16-switch control system. The system allows users to send structured commands for turning switches ON/OFF, schedule actions based on time, and receive real-time feedback through both visual and auditory interfaces. It includes a smart GUI using Tkinter and sound notifications via winsound and pygame.
- Command Execution Window: Users can enter commands (e.g.,
ON 1,OFF 2,? 1,? ALL) to control switches. - Switch Visualization: Real-time visualization of switch states in a separate graphical window.
- Start Window: Launches the system with a welcome message using text-to-speech.
