THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A PROTOTYPE INTERNET-BASED WIRELESS HOME AUTOMATION SYSTEM
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2022, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to develop and implement a prototype home automation system that uses the Internet-of-Things technology. It is focused on the need to deal with the existing challenges of high cost of ownership, inflexible architecture, and lack of security of those smart systems that are commercially available nowadays. The implement system consists of a microcontroller which uses a web server application to connect some home appliances to the Internet through a relay module and a mobile application. The microcontroller is for receiving and processing the commands from homeowners to monitor or control the required appliances at home and for transmitting the necessary signals to the relay module for the automatic operation of the appliances. The microcontroller maintains the database of all the appliances as well as all the authorized users of the home automation system. The web server app is also used for communication between the Internet and the mobile phone. The mobile application was developed using the Android platform. The Android app acts as the software dashboard that presents the users with a list of devices to interact with in the smart home. The materials used in this paper are inexpensive and readily available. The result of this work was tested in real life to prove its effectiveness and usefulness. And the findings have not only validated the relevance of this work but also highlighted its significance in the digital world of today.
