Home automation using Internet of Things

Abstract: This paper represents the controlling and monitoring of the home environment using wireless sensors. An automated system is represented which can be used for controlling the lights and fans. A computer screen or a Smartphone can be used to monitor the Main control Unit(MCU). A very simplistic Graphical User Interface (GUI) is used which can be easily understandable for the target user. To make the data easily available to the user, this GUI will be implemented on the webpage.

Abstract: Incorporation of smart devices within the older framework has brought along significant challenges. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the barriers faced during the implementation of Intern...

Energy efficient IoT-based smart home

Abstract: Smart Home technology is the future of residential related technology which is designed to deliver and distribute number of services inside and outside the house via networked devices in which all the different applications & the intelligence behind them are integrated and interconnected. These smart devices have the potential to share information with each other given the permanent availability to access the broadband internet connection. Hence, Smart Home Technology has become part of IoT (Internet of Things). In this work, a home model is analyzed to demonstrate an energy efficient IoT based smart home. Several Multiphysics simulations were carried out focusing on the kitchen of the home model. A motion sensor with a surveillance camera was used as part of the home security system. Coupled with the home light and HVAC control systems, the smart system can remotely control the lighting and heating or cooling when an occupant enters or leaves the kitchen.

IoT based home automation and surveillance system

Abstract: Internet of Things offers user interoperability and connectivity between devices, systems, services, networks and in particularly control systems. IoT involves enhancing network to proficiently collect and analyze the data from various sensors and actuators then sends the data to the mobile phone or a personal computer over a wireless connection. Building IoT has progressed essentially in the last couple of years since it has created a new era in the world of information and communication technologies. Security is becoming an important issue nowadays as the possibilities of intrusion are increasing day by day. Safety from intrusion, theft, fire and leakage of flammable gas are the most important requirements of home security system for the people. The aim of this work is to provide security and surveillance to home through internet. In this work, the proposed system is designed using ARM-11 architecture and Linux OS based Raspberry Pi-3 board, USB camera and DC motor. The DC motor is interfaced with Raspberry Pi-3 board via driving circuit (L293D) to control the door while the camera is connected to the USB port of Raspberry Pi-3 board. A webpage is provided to the end user with username and password in order to allow the entry of only authorized users. After successful login, user is able to control the door by using open and close buttons and watch the live streaming video of the desired location i.e., the vicinity of the door. A capture button is also provided in order to take a snapshot of the running video.

Wireless Sensor Networks for Smart Homes: A Fuzzy-Based Solution for an Energy-Effective Duty Cycle

Abstract: This paper introduces a fuzzy-based method that, according to the ratio of Throughput to Workload and the battery level, manages the sleeping time of devices in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) for smart homes. The purpose of this work is a system that can be executed on off-the-shelf hardware and offers enhanced performance confronted with other approaches. The challenge here is to achieve a practical method that reaches the target while bypassing complex and computationally expensive solutions, which would diminish the possible applicability of the method in real scenarios. The retrieved results prove that the proposed approach outperforms other solutions, significantly prolonging the life of battery-powered wireless devices with also satisfactory values of the ratio Throughput to Workload. Besides, a proof-of-concept implementation on off-the-shelf devices confirms that the proposed method does not expect powerful hardware and can be surely implemented on a low-cost device.

Internet of Things based home automation system

Abstract: The internet has been connecting people and making life simpler by providing all kinds of information with the click of a button. The next big wave in this domain is the internet of things which will enable physical objects used in day to day life to connect to the internet and exchange data. In this paper a home automation system based on internet of things is developed. This allows the user to automate all the devices and appliances of home and integrate them to provide seamless control over every aspect of their home. The designed system not only monitors the sensor data, but also actuates a process according to the requirement, for example switching on the light when it gets dark and it allows the user to control the household devices from anywhere.
