INTRODUCTION
"What is home automation?" Put simply, home automation refers to any number of
automated ways that the systems present in your homefrom lighting to security
to outdoor sprinklerscan be configured to run automatically, and in some cases,
even controlled remotely via the internet from anywhere on the planet.
Home automation systems integrate electrical devices with one another. The
systems controlled through home automation are sometimes connected to the
home's computer network, letting homeowners control them remotely from their
computers or mobile devices.
The main system categories controlled by home automation are lighting, security,
HVAC and outdoor sprinkler systems, although there are many other uses for
home automation, including pet feeding and the use of robotic interior cleaning and
exterior landscaping devices.

CONCEPT

Every HomeAutomation box is a stand-alone device. It is connected to the mains

and controls the power outlet of the electrical device that is plugged into it.
There will be a receiver and transmitter in each of the box, so they can exchange
information with the master (a computer). People can control power supply of
electrical devices in order to create an interactive home environment to facilitate
the control without changing any home appliance. People can enjoy the high
technology and simplicity modern life style.

Each device will be with standard setup and while adding it into network; it can be
given an address and tasks to do. All the setting will be easily resettable to default
value, so people can move the devices between different electrical devices and
networks.
HomeAutomation boxes will be put into different rooms at home, depending on the
needed functionality. Various different sensors could be attached to the boxes. The
sensors are used as triggers for actions, that user can set up in the computer
program.

WORKING
Home automation systems are composed of hardware, communication and
electronic interfaces that work to integrate electrical devices with one another.
Domestic activities can then be regulated with the touch of a button. From any
remote location, users can adjust the controls on home entertainment systems, limit
the amount of sunlight given to houseplants, or change the temperatures in certain
rooms. Home automation software is often connected through computer networks
so that users can adjust settings on their personal devices.
The three main elements of a home sequrity system are sensors, controllers and
actuators. Sensors can monitor changes in daylight, temperature or motion
detection; home automation systems can then adjust settings to the preferred levels
of a user. Controllers refer to the devicespersonal computers, tablets or
smartphonesused to send and receive messages about the status of automated
features in users homes. Actuators may be light switches, motors or motorized
valves that control a mechanism or function of a home automation system

FEATURES
Different home automation systems offer a variety of services and functions. Some
of the common features available through these platforms may include fire and
carbon monoxide monitoring, remote lighting control, thermostat control,
appliance control, live video surveillance, security cameras, alarm systems and
real-time text and email alerts. Homeowners can save on energy bills by reducing
the length of time that lights stay on or lowering temperatures when they have left
a room.

ADVANTAGE
Home automation has greatly increased in popularity over the past several years.
One of the greatest advantages of an automated home is the ease with which
functionality can be managed on an array of devices: desktop, laptop, tablet or
smartphone. Before determining which home automation package is right for you
and your family, it is important to become better informed of the features and
settings associated with home safety and security systems.
one of the greatest advantages of home automation systems is that users can protect
against break-ins and fires, while enjoying automations for lights, temperature, and
more. The automation of features in ones home helps to promote security,
comfort, energy efficiency, and convenience. Another benefit of home automation
systems is the amount of labor, time, energy and materials that is saved.
Home automation systems are becoming more and more affordable. Not only are
prices decreasing, but operating systems are also become less complex so that
users can readily master all the controls associated with their safety and security
devices. Home automation commands can now be given through smartphones,
tablets, and televisions, in addition to computers.
