 ABSTRACT

Today, the use of home automation has increased by leaps and bounds. Home automation is one
of the most interesting field information technology. Home automation in simple terms is
dominating several activities of our home through advance technologies. In this project we will
develop a prototype demonstrating various aspects of Home Automation, like controlling
electronic devices, using the devices only when needed thus saving energy, switch on/off
electrical appliances with mobile phone from distinct places. It permits the person to carry out
different acts of home from a distant place. By using various type of sensors we can automate
our homes.

The unique feature of home automation is that all the devise in the home are controlled
automatically by the help of remote sensor that is connected to the central host PC.

The Wi-Fi which is a wireless technology is used to have a connection between the webserver
and the NODEMCU.

The hardware and software components comprise of Arduino IDE, Breadboard, Jumper cables,
Arduino Uno, NodeMCU ESP8266, HCSR04, LED Display, and Potentiometer.

 1 INTRODUCTION

Human beings are very lazy creatures, we want to do all of our work by just sitting at a one place
and not bothering to go out and socialize. Emerging technology has on the other hand is trying its
best to fulfil our demand by everyday introducing something new. One of the emerging and
interesting field is Internet of Things.

Under Internet of Things we have a small domain called Home automation in which focus is on
automating almost every device of our homes. We can make our own security system just by
using sensors and doing some code. We can control the devices wirelessly by using Bluetooth or
Wi-Fi module. It is all about connecting out devices with the network so that we can control
almost anything from anywhere. Unlimited amount of sensors are available in the market and our
task is only to deeply understand their functioning and implement them in various areas of
concern. One of the examples is of water level sensor, we can use it in our water tanks to
measure the level of water and automatically the motor will be turned off when the level exceeds
some threshold value.

Need to automate the device can come to any of us but we do not have enough of the knowledge
of how to do the things. So the need to study the basic concepts of Internet of Things are
important. We can get various ideas related to the innovation by constantly surveying the people
by emails or sms etc.

Today Internet of Things is an important part of innovation where constant researches are going
on and in Home automation everyday something new is being generated. In our project we will
be testing some of the basic sensors and then try to control some of the devices using Bluetooth
and Wi-Fi module.

Major issue now a days is the issue of privacy. With recent events like Facebook Cambridge
analytica case, privacy of users is becoming of great concern to the state authorities in position.

1
Data from several websites and the data stored on various clouds also has an issue of privacy

2
due to increasing number of cyber-attacks and increasing cases of data being stolen without
the consent of the user. Data from several servers is being stolen and sold to big corporate so
that they could easily target their audience and make money out of it.

Recently the Supreme Court of India in Justice K S Puttaswamy vs Union of India & Others
stated that privacy is one of the fundamental duties of the citizen of India thus protecting
privacy is also a major issue in Internet of Things and in the internet world.
Major economies of the world like Europe, United States Of America, China and many other
countries have very strict data protection laws like Europe has General Data Protection
Regulation(GDPR) under which user has the choice with whom he/she wants to share its
information and also has the right to be forgotten.

There are several types of devices controlled through home automation which are:

Individual Control devices: In this method, each device is controlled individually thus it is
very user friendly and handy. It was used in early days of evolution of Internet of Things.

Distributed Control Systems: In this method, the best part is emergency shut down which
becomes very useful when it comes to fire detection or any other such danger event.

Centrally Controlled Systems: In these systems, the devices are programmed via computer so
that it could handle all kinds of functionality required by the user such as Air Conditioners,
heaters, doors, windows, security systems, car parking etc.

 1.1 Smart Homes

“Home Automation”, “Connected Devices” and “Internet of Things” are often interchangeable,
but they are discrete parts of the Smart Home concept:

• Automated home: As earlier discussed this refers to automating most of the devices of you
home for example switching off the lights when nobody needs to use it or turning on and off
other appliances in the home. Or controlling the lights with your own voice or by mobile.

• Internet of Things: Smart homes are made by using Internet of Things. We use various
sensors at different places and make them connected to the network so they can communicate
with each other and there is no need of asking for the inputs and other details from the user.

• Connected devices: These are the intelligent devices which have the ability to connect to
the internet and start communicating with the user by use of programming. For example we can
use it in our water tanks to measure the level of water and automatically the motor will be
turned off when the level exceeds some threshold value.

Why automated homes?

Savings: Internet of Things promoted devices such as learning thermostats, smart sprinklers,
Wi- Fi enabled lights, and electricity monitoring outlets as well as water heater modules reduces
the energy and water use.

4
 Figure 1: Smart home[5]

Control: We can easily control all the network connected devices almost everywhere around
the world, for example we did not turn off the lights but our light system is connected to the
network via some sensors and constantly monitoring the status of the lights and giving us the
report via sms or any other means. By seeing the status of the lights we can turn it off by sending
some command.

Security: This can be achieved by using Wi-Fi enabled cameras, motion sensor which will
sense the motion or any activity of any object and by using this in collaboration of alarm we can
easily monitor what is going on in the house.

5
Safety: It can be achieved by using sensors like water sensor which can detect any leakage in
the water tank, smoke sensors which can detect fire etc. Using these sensors and connecting
them to the network can prevent many tragedies from encountering.

Convenience: This is the most desirable feature or advantage of smart homes. We do not have
to do any kind of hard work rather everything happens automatically just by sitting at a corner
and giving commands to the devices. Example in voice controlled homes we just need to say that
turn off lights and the lights will switch off, or led display on fridge which will display that milk
is in the fridge or we need to buy it or if we are out of it can order itself online.

1.2 Internet of Things

IoT is the network of devices (that are mainly various types of sensors attached to many devices)
which permits these sensors to collect and communicate with user and transmit over the network.
Due to this we can remotely access or control any of our devices and in interaction between the
computer world and the physical world is merging as the new innovation which is helping in
increasing efficiency economic benefits and accuracy. We can see how it is efficient,
economically beneficial by taking this simple example of turning off the lights automatically or
automated taps from which water comes only when hands or any other object is beneath the tap,
this way our electricity and water which are very crucial resources are not wasted at all. IoT can
be used in the following fields:

• Tracking the surrounding or the environment

• Managing the infrastructure
• Home automation
• Business automation
• Hospitals and other medical stores
• Security systems
• For preserving and conserving resources

 Figure 2: Uses of Internet of Things [7]

1.3 Objective

• To develop an automated home controlled using Arduino.

• The objective is to conserve energy resources.
• To implement services such as switching on/off lights via mobile, smart car parking etc
• To use Bluetooth to make it wireless.
• To use Wi-Fi module esp8266 to wirelessly control the devices.

1.4 Methodology

In this smart home automation we would have a system which can identify the owner of the house.
When someone is at the door it sends the picture of the person to the owner and door
automatically opens or closes on the command of the owner. When you enter the room the
lightning of the room goes as specified by the user according to his mood.

7
Figure 3: Methodology

To achieve all of the above we will build an html page accessible from every device which will
all the functionalities needed to automate the home. Using esp8266 module we will create a web
server and http requests will be send to perform a particular task. It will look like this:

8
We will use relay here to connect to the appliances working on high voltage. Relay is kind of
switch which will switch from 5v to the high voltage.

 2 LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1Home Automation through IOT: Vinay Sagar, KN. Kusuma, SM. (2013)

Today the automated home systems face four primarily four challenges; challenges include: elevated
possession worth, inflexibility, poor flexibility, what is more as issue in achieving security. The foremost
aim of this project is to vogue and make an automated home system mistreatment IoT technology that is
apt of dominating and automating the appliances or devices inside the home through a straight forward
and controllable web interface. The kind of the system talked about throughout this paper, encompasses a
pleasant flexibility of mistreatment Wi-Fi technology to interconnect the distributed sensors to home
automation system server.
Another major issue nowadays is the issue of privacy. With recent events like Facebooks Cambridge
analytica case, privacy of users is becoming of great concern to the state authorities in position. Data
from several websites and the data stored on various clouds also have an issue of privacy due to
increasing number of cyber-attacks and increasing cases of data being stolen without the consent of
the user. Data from several servers is being stolen and sold to big corporate so that they could easily
target their audience and make money out of it.

• Ramani, R. Olatunbosun, A. (2010) Internet of Things (IoT)

One of the truism within the info Technology is web of Things (IoT). It is the future of
technology which will transform the simple objects into the smart ones. The technology want to
unify everything and not only want us to control the things but also remain informed about the
state of the device. This particular paper tells about the overview of this new technology that is
IoT, architecture and how it is vital in our daily life.
“The most profound technologies area unit those who disappear. They weave themselves into the
material of daily life till they are indistinguishable from it” was Mark Weiser’s central statement
in his seminal paper in scientific Yankee in 1991. After the arrival of this new technology many
new changes are seen in day today’s life. This concept is becoming popular with times as there
are several applications of this. Internet of Things need is increasing everyday due to the large
10
automation demands by the large firms, as everything becomes super easy if the concept of
Internet of things is implemented in industries. The ability to do every task that can be automated
with great precision, high speed and minimum errors has allowed various industries to be more
productive and efficient. So it can be seen that Internet of Things is the technological revolution
which has made everyday life very easy with knowledge of sensors, programming etc.
There are several examples of how an automated machine has made our lives much easier and
comfortable. Some examples of home automation includes:
Switching off the lights or fans even if a person is away from his/her house
Switching on AC so that when a person reaches he/she has the required room
temperature Improving the security of the home by providing real time feed of the house
Helping especially abled people as well as old people since a machine can do a task as many
times as asked since it is programmed to do so while on other hand a person may get frustrated
by same demands

Science and Software Engineering

The paper pacts with the automated home systems based on visual authentication. It allows the
owner to grant entry to any of the visitors to his home after viewing his or her image. Arduino
Uno has been used as a system processor. The whole system was the wireless. A webcam would
constantly monitor whose entering the house and would capture the picture of the visitor and
would send to the owner. As the traveller arrives and desires to enter the house, the digital
camera unceasingly keeps on looking for any changes in its read and it takes the image of the
traveller. There will a message sent to the user’s phone asking regarding he needs to look at the
image or not, once the owner gives the confirmation, it will receive the image from IP address of
the digital camera via Bluetooth pairing. After about five millisecond of delay a message is going
to be presented to the owner to ask to open the door or not. If owner desires to open the door a
sign are going to be sent to electronic lock via Arduino. If owner answers negatively the
complete program are going to be terminated there itself. Like this manner our system can work.

 Light Sensor(LDR)
16
A Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) is a light dependent resistor whose resistivity depends on
the amount of photons or we can say the light intensity falls on it. The relation between the light
intensity and the resistance is inverse relation, with increase in light the resistance decreases and
vice-versa. LDR is in various applications, example in street lights to automate on and off of the
lights.

 Temperature Sensor (LM35)

LM35 is a basic temperature sensor that can be used for many important purposes. It gives
the readings in centigrade (degree Celsius) and its output is directly proportional to the
temperature. We will not go into the details of how it works but where we can use it in our
project. We can note down the temperature of our room and send the data to the esp8266
web server through which one can see what the temperature in the room is and can direct to
on or off the AC accordingly.

environment. AN IR sensing element will live the warmth of AN object additionally as detects
the motion. These sorts of sensors live solely infrared emission.

IR sensors are important tool in many of the Internet of Things projects. In Home automation this
sensor can be used to provide home security. By placing the sensor at a place with high privacy
like the safes, and setting threshold value after which the user will informed that someone has
crossed the threshold and a check need to be made.

The various factors found responsible for affecting the overall performance of the ESP8266
NODEMCU chip are as follows:

Loss for a given system is given by:

PL (dB) =10LOG10 (Pt/Pr)

This formula tells us the amount of variation in signal to noise ratio (SNR).

We have used IFTTT for connecting between our Wi-Fi module and our android application

It gives us the facility of measuring different sensors which are used in our project.

34
Composition of various sensors, actuators, chips, automation devices, identifying devices and
other electronic components collectively make up a perfect IOT model or prototype.

Important characteristics of a system are:

1. Coding must be approachable: In Node MCU the coding part is more

convenient so that we can test our module from around the globe
which gives us the performance analysis of our system.
2. Security: It is one of the most crucial function of any system which should
be kept in mind while optimizing the working of the model or prototype.
We should also preserve the privacy of the data while using the data in
our system
3. Intelligence: IoT is the combination of various algorithms and data which
is being put to compute a specific output which the help of hardware so
as to make the system more and more intelligent.
4. Connectivity: IoT is all about connecting one devise with another so as
to give us the desired output. With this connectivity many new markets
in Asia and around the world are being developed.

Artificial intelligence is one of the vast growing market in the world of Internet of Things since it
makes the devices smart and increases their lifetime by the use of the data.

 5 CONCLUSION

The home automation via Internet of Things is experimentally proven to work satisfactorily
by connecting simple appliances to Arduino and the appliances were successfully
controlled. The designed system along with monitoring the sensor data, like temperature,
light, motion sensors, also actuates a process according to the requirement, for example
switching on the light when it gets dark. This will help the user to analyse the condition of
various parameters in the home anytime and work his things out accordingly.
Smart homes are huge system that includes multiple technologies and applications that can
be used to provide security and control of the home easily.
The project is of great help for each and every age group of society especially for the
especially abled persons and old age people since they are the ones who suffer the most for
day to day things which other people can do easily.

People with special needs can use google assistant for switching on or off several appliances
and people who cannot speak can use Bluetooth enabled application to switch on or off their
home appliances.

5.1 FUTURE WORK:

By using the current system, in future it will be further developed and modified to include
other home security options like capturing the photo of a person who enters the home and
sending it to the owner through WhatsApp, email or any other platform. This will not only
increase the security but also enable the user to keep a check on his home from anyplace at
any given time. This kind of a system with required changes can be implemented in the
hospitals for disable people or in industries where human invasion is quite impossible or fatal
to life. Thus, resulting in a complete automated and easy to use system.
