Designing of Smart Home Automation Using IoT

The Internet of Things (IoT) conceptualizes the idea of remotely connecting and monitoring real-world objects through the Internet. When it comes to our homes, this concept can be suitably incorporated to make them smarter, safer and more automated. Therefore, smart home automation is a topic that is gaining popularity day by day due to its advantages. One can quickly achieve automation by connecting home appliances to the Internet or cloud storage. The cloud computing-based platform helps to connect with the things that surround everyone so that they can easily access anything and everything anytime anywhere in a user-friendly way. This IoT paper focuses on building an innovative wireless system that allows the owner to control the appliances of the place. The most important aspect of this system is to incorporate smooth working of the automated appliances via both the internet and the manual control. The ESP 8266 is a low-cost microcontroller that works on a 3.3V dc supply and has integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules with built-in TCP/IP networking software. It has 17 programmable GPIOs, enough to control all four relays, and two servo motors for the paper. Bell types switches are used for the manual control of the appliances.
