 ABSTRACT

The Home Automation System (HAS) is extension of current activities performed inside the home and this Home
Automation System can be developed easily now a days, because of powerful computational devices and wireless
sensor network(WSN), to IoT-Based Smart Bank to Achieve Home Automation with Gesture Detection and Control.
The main objective of this project is to develop a home automation system using an ESP8266 board being remotely
controlled by any Android OS smartphone. Modern houses are gradually shifting from conventional switches to
centralized control systems, involving remote controlled switches. Ever thought of a life where you could just
command your home appliances to work as you need just by using your voice. Coming days we are going to use
automated houses which are activated. This project will demonstrate, controlling home electronic appliances like

T.V. , fans, lights etc., using the internet and your voice and that too low budget.

Today’s, smart objects in the Internet of Things(IOT) are able to detect their state and share it with other objects
across the Internet, thus collaboratively making intelligent decisions on their own. Humans always find
alternatives around them to carry out their work smoothly. Service provisioning in IOT should also be made
capable of providing similar or alternate objects that are aligned with user requirements, current context and
previous knowledge without any human intervention. With advancement of automation technology, life is
getting simpler and easier in all aspects. Now a day’s Automatic systems are being preferred over manual
systems. Traditional methods of household chores are replaced by automation systems which are adaptable
with the modern world. The manual systems are not more acceptable by the new generation people, so
traditional methods are to be replaced. We have reported an effective implementation for the Internet of
Things used for monitoring regular domestic conditions by sensing systems. Architecture of home automation
is based on appliances Node MCU, mobile application, web application, relays.

 1. INTRODUCTION

The main objective of this project is to develop a home automation system using an Arduino board with
Bluetooth being remotely controlled by any Android OS smartphone Modern houses are gradually shifting from
conventional switches to centralized control system, involving remote controlled switches. Ever thought of a life
where you could just command your home appliances to work as you need just by using your voice? Gone are the
days where you have to be a billionaire like Tony Stark to have an automated house which is voice activated. In this
short tutorial I’m going to show you how you can control your electronic appliances like T.V, fans, light set cover
the internet with your voice and that to under a low budget. You can follow this tutorial even if you have no prior
knowledge about Programming or Node MCU. So lets begin learning Home Automation Using Node MCU and
Google Assistant.

Home automation is anything that enables you to use your home’s lighting, heating and appliances more
conveniently and efficiently. It can be as simple as remote or automatic control of a few lights, or it can be a
complete system that controls all major parts of your home. Custom set to your own personal preference.

It focuses on wireless home automation technologies - these are easy to retrofit into existing homes now need for
new wiring and no ripping up the carpets or drilling holes in the walls. Each technology has its own unique features
and benefits that makes some more suited to particular applications, whilst others can be seen for all general home
automation installations. The concept behind IoT home automation is to enhance convenience, comfort, efficiency,
and security in the home by enabling remote control and intelligent automation of different tasks and functions. By
using interconnected devices and a central control system, homeowners can monitor and manage their homes from
anywhere using smartphones, tablets, or computers. It's worth noting that while IoT-based home automation offers
numerous benefits, ensuring the security and privacy of the connected devices and data is crucial. Implementing
robust security measures, such as strong passwords, encrypted communications, and regular firmware updates, is
essential to protect against potential vulnerabilities.
1.1 EXISTING SYSTEM: Bluetooth-controlled home automation refers to the use of Bluetooth technology to
control and automate various devices and systems within a home environment. Bluetooth is a wireless communication
protocol that allows for short-range data exchange between devices, typically within a range of 10 meters. In
Bluetooth-based home automation, devices such as smartphones, tablets, or dedicated Bluetooth controllers act as the
central control point. These devices communicate with Bluetooth-enabled devices and appliances in the home to send
commands and receive information

1.2 PROPOSED SYSTEM: IoT home automation is a system that uses internet-connected devices to control and
monitor your home's appliances, lights, and security systems. With IoT home automation, you can use a smartphone,
tablet, or voice command to turn on lights, adjust the thermostat, lock the doors, or even start your coffee maker. You
can control your home's appliances and devices from anywhere with an internet connection. This means you can turn
on the lights or adjust the thermostat before you get home, or lock the doors when you leave for work IoT home
automation can make your home more comfortable by allowing you to control the temperature, lighting, and other
aspects of your environment. For example, you can set your thermostat to automatically adjust the temperature to
your preferred setting when you come home, or you can turn on the lights in your bedroom when you get into bed.
 2. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Requirements identification is the first step of any software development project. Until the requirements of a
client have been clearly identified, and verified, no other task (design, coding, testing) could begin. Usually
business analysts having domain knowledge on the subject matter discuss with clients and decide what
features are to be implemented. Categorization of Requirements Based on the target audience or subject
matter, requirements can be classified into different types, as stated below:

2.1 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS:

1. Arduino IDE

2. Google Home App

2.2 HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS:

1. Node MCU

 HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

1. NODE MCU(esp8266): NODEMCU board is a low cost Wi-Fi module, is a self-contained System-On-
Chip with integrated TCP/IP protocol stack that can give any microcontroller access to your Wi-Fi network.
The ESP8266 is capable of either hosting an application or offloading all Wi-Fi networking functions
from another application processor. The chip first came to the attention of Western makers in August 2014
with the ESP- 01 module, made by a third-party manufacturer Ai-Thinker. This small module
allows microcontroller to connect to a Wi-Fi network and make simple TCP/IP connections using Hayes
style commands. However, at first there was almost no English-language documentation on the chip
and the commands it accepted. The very low price and the fact that there were very few external
components on the module, which suggested that it could eventually be very inexpensive in volume,
attracted many hackers to explore the module, the chip, and the software on it, as well as to translate the
Chinese documentation.

2. RELAY: is an electrically operated switch. It consists of a set of input terminals for a signal or multiple control
signals, and a set of operating contact terminals. The switch may have any number of contacts or multiple contact
forms, such as make contacts, break contacts, or combinations thereof.
Relay are used where it is necessary to control a circuit by an independent low-power signal, or where
several circuits must be controlled by one signal. Relays were first used in long-distance telegraph circuits as
signal repeaters: they refresh the signal coming in from one circuit by transmitting it on another circuit. Relays
were used extensively in telephone exchanges and early computers to perform logical operations.
A relay switch is an electromechanical device that uses an electromagnet to operate a pair of movable
contacts from an open position to a closed position. Relays are used to control electrical circuits by receiving a
low-power signal and using it to control a high-power circuit. This allows a relatively small amount of current
to be used to control a much larger amount of current. Relays are available in a wide variety of sizes, shapes,
and configurations. They can be used to control a wide variety of electrical loads, including motors, heaters,
lights, and other devices. Relays are also used in many electronic circuits, such as computers, audio
equipment, and security systems.

Fig 2: Relay
3. MANUALLY OPERATED SWITCH: A home switch that is manually operated is a type of switch
that is turned on or off by a person, rather than automatically. This type of switch is often used in homes
for things like lights, appliances, and security systems. Manually operated switches can be either single-
pole or double-pole. Single-pole switches control one circuit, while double-pole switches control
two circuits.

Fig 3: Manually Operated Switch

4. BULB: A bulb, in the context of lighting, refers to a device that produces light through the emission of
electromagnetic radiation, typically in the visible spectrum. It is commonly used as a general term to
describe various types of light sources, including incandescent bulbs, fluorescent bulbs, LED bulbs,
and more.
LED Bulbs: Light Emitting Diode (LED) bulbs are highly energy-efficient and have become increasingly
in recent years. LED bulbs produce light when an electric current passes through a semiconductor material,
causing electrons to release energy in the form of photons. LED bulbs offer a wide range of temperatures,
are available in various shapes and sizes, and have a longer lifespan compared to traditional bulbs. They
are commonly used in homes, commercial buildings, automotive lighting, and many other applications.
Fluorescent Bulbs: Fluorescent bulbs use low-pressure mercury vapor and phosphor coating to produce light.
When the gas inside the bulb is excited by an electric current, it emits ultraviolet (UV) light, which is then
converted into visible light by the phosphor coating. Fluorescent bulbs are more energy-efficient and have a
longer lifespan compared to incandescent bulbs. They are commonly used in offices, commercial buildings,
and residential spaces.

Fig 4: Bulb
5. FAN: A fan is a common household appliance used to create a flow of air for the purpose of cooling or
circulating air within a space. It typically consists of a motor, blades or impellers, and a housing.

Fig 5: Fan
6. CONNECTING WIRES: Connecting wires allows an electrical current or signal to travel from one point
on a circuit to another because signal or current needs a medium through which to move. In basic circuits,
the wire comes from one terminal of a power source, such as a battery.

Fig 6: Connecting Wires

7. Wi-Fi HOTSPOT: Wi-fi hotspot is simply an area with an accessible wireless network. The term is most
often used to refer to wireless networks in public areas like airports and coffee shops. Users can even create
their own mobile hotspot using a cell phone or an external device that can connect to a cellular network.

Fig 7: Wi-Fi Hotspot

8. BREAD BOARD: The breadboard is a white rectangular board with small embedded holes to insert
electronic components. It is commonly used in electronics projects. We can also say that breadboard is
a prototype that acts as a construction base of electronics.

WORKING:

The Home Automation System is operating with Node MCU ESP8266 controller and the command is
given by the Blynk application in a mobile phone using the Wi- Fi network. The Node MCU ESP8266 has an
inbuilt Wi-Fi module and the devices connected with Home Automation System. Both Wi-Fi is connected
with an authentication token.
The heart of today’s project is the Wi-Fi enabled board that needs no introduction to the ESP8266
based Node MCU development board. It is an open source platform for developing Wi-Fi based embedded systems
and it is based on the popular ESP8266 Wi-Fi module, running the Node MCU firmware. Node MCU was born
out of the desire to overcome the limitations associated with the first versions of the ESP8266 module which
was not compatible with breadboards. It was difficult to power and even more difficult to program. The
Node MCU board is easy to use. Low cost and that quickly endeared it to the heart of makers and it is one of
the most popular boards today. For this project two channel relay modules are added to the ESP8266 board.
The project flow involves the control of Node MCU’s GPIO from a webpage on any device connected on
the same network as the board. The status of the GPIO’s control the coil of the relays and causes the relay to
alternate between normally open (NO) and normally close (NC) condition depending on the state of the GPIO,
thus effectively turning the connected appliance “ON” or “OFF”.
Now the operation is gone by giving supply either Micro USB or Vin, GND. It can operate by Blynk application in
mobile phone i.e., Android or iPhone by manual and via Google Assistant with voice. The Hardware is well operated
according to our action.

Applications:

 Lightning Control
 Lawn / Gardening Management
 Smart Home Appliances
 Improved home safety and security
 Home air quality and water quality monitoring
 Better infotainment delivery
 Most preferable language based voice assistant

 8.CONCLUSION

Conclusion: The Home automation using Internet of Things has been experimentally proven to work
satisfactorily by connecting simple appliances to it and the appliances were successfully controlled remotely
through internet. The designed system not only monitors the sensor data like temperature, gas, light, motion sensor
but also actuates a process according to the requirement. For example, the switch gets dark. It also stores the
sensor parameters in the cloud (Gmail) in a timely manner. This will help the user to analyze the condition of
various parameters in the home anytime anywhere.
The home automation using Internet of Things has been experimentally proven to work satisfactorily by
connecting simple appliances to it and the appliances were successfully controlled remotely through Internet.
Home automation is undeniably a resource which can make a home environment automated. People can control
their electrical devices via these home automation devices and set up controlling actions through mobile. In future
this product may have high potential for marketing. Further it can be demonstrated from computer instead of
mobile phones for controlling appliances of any large places like industries, hospitals, institutions etc., centrally.
 9.FUTURE SCOPE

Future scope for the home automation systems involves making homes even smarter. More energy can be
conserved by ensuring occupation of the house before turning on devices and turning off lights if not necessary. The
system can be integrated closely with home security solutions to allow greater control and safety for home owners.
The next step would be to extend this system to automate a large scale environment, such as offices and factories.
Home Automation offers a global standard for interoperable products. Standardization enables smart homes that can
control appliances, lighting, environment, energy management and security as well as the expandability to connect
with other networks. Well, no system is ever perfect. It always has a scope for improvement. One just needs to put on
a thinking cap and try and make the system more better.
