Abstract

The Home automation plays an important role in modern lifestyle because of its access in
using at different places with high quality which will intern save time by decreasing human work
automatically. The home automation is electric devices stand alone and do not communicate; it is
programmable, such as sensors remote controller and communication system. Home automation
is use for electronic control devices remotely and automatically. This technology is focused on
control household appliances like light, fan, AC, etc. automatically.

This System presents a low cost and flexible home control and environmental monitoring
system. It employs an embedded micro – web server in Arduino Mega 2560 microcontroller, with
IP connectivity for accessing and controlling devices and appliances remotely. These devices can
be controlled through a web application or via Bluetooth Android based Smart phone app. The
proposed system does not require a dedicated server PC with respect to similar systems and offers
a novel communication protocol to monitor and control the home environment with more than just
the switching functionality. To demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of this system, devices
such as light switches, power plug, temperature sensor, gas sensor and motion sensors have been
integrated with the proposed home control system. So the ON/OFF process of home appliances
can be done remotely.

Home automation provides security, energy efficiency and ease of use hence, it is adopted
more. It also provides remote interface to home appliances to provide control and monitoring on
a web browser.
