for the electrical outlets.
Design an electronic switch module for
electrical outlet.
Program the prototype.
Design an interfacing module for
smartphone communication.
Attain 100% system performance accuracy
and reliability.

Scope and Limitations

Develop an application fora smartphone
The user could search for the existing used
electrical outlet using a smartphone
Connection can be done through Wi-Fi, 3G and 4G
The application provides a graphical user interface
wherein the user could control the on and off
mechanism of the electrical outlet
The application is only capable of controlling, and
displaying the status of the electrical outlet
