Activity: INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT
Introduction
This chapter is focused
on the background of the project and aim of the project to do a simple concept
of prototype home automation with low costs by controlling lights, fan, door,
etc. This paper discusses about on how the simple project can manage the home
appliance in flexible ways on maintenance the issue. The project deals with
designing all the home appliance system with target to have the technical
advantages of scalability, flexibility, availability, security and its ease of
the use for users and autonomous operation on economical affordable way for the
smart home system and immediate remedy from electric shock happened in the
system by using android application. These mobile devices are ideal in
providing a user interface a smart home controller, due to their portability
and their wide range of capabilities. They can communicate with a smart home
controller network through an internet gateway, but cannot directly communicate
with devices in the network, as these devices usually implement low power
communication protocols, such as Wi-Fi. The
basic working using Arduino microcontroller are investigated and discussed by
doing some experiment and research. However, some of the limitation has been
set in experiment to measure the result.
Problem Statement
In order to improve the
quality of our life, electrical devices are very important but one of them are
not friendly for those handicapped user such as using the remote control to
switch ON and OFF of the home appliances. In order to solve this problem, this
project is proposed with create a system that can make our life more easy. For
that reason, this project is about that can be attached with electrical devices
and command the home appliances such light, fan, motor and many more by using
our android applications.
Nowadays, people want to live in simple and
systematic lifestyle. There are a few main challenges; these are high cost of
ownership, inflexibility, poor manageability, and difficulty in gaining
security. The common method of wired connections is basically will cost money.
As it will use the specific cable, which is to make the connections stable and
smoother.
Besides, home automation technology is increase
rapidly along with advancement of low cost embedded system, sensors, and global
style like communication system. Design a low cost smart home system in small
size and able to communicate between them is one of the key challenges in doing
the home automation system. By controlling the switch using Arduino Microcontroller
and Android application will makes the user more safety and far away from
electric shock.
Objectives
The objective of this
study is to produce a comfortable and luxury home system that involves the
following features:
i.
To implement a suitable prototype for
designing home automation with low costs by controlling lights, fan, door, etc.
with Arduino Uno using android application.
ii.
To develop home automation system with
home appliances ON and OFF using relay..
iii.
To develop all home appliances using the
android application that able of controlling and automated.
iv.
To develop home automation with a user
friendly of android application as an alternative to replace remote control
unit.
