Development of IoT-Based Smart Home Application with Energy Management

IoT Evolution is a trusted source in the Internet of Things (IoT) that describes an ecosystem of connected devices. Interconnected smart devices have become a ubiquitous part of daily lives. In other words, the rising popularity of the IoT in day-to-day life has led to people incorporating innovative applications, e.g., smart home environments, to improve convenience, comfort, energy efficiency, and safety. However, these intelligent appliances provide additional energy costs. Thus, energy management is essential to minimize this energy cost in an intellectual environment. The cost incurred for improved energy or other innovative services varies with the design of an intelligent system. This paper presents a smart home automation system designed along with energy management. In this work, each room of the proposed smart home is modeled with a set of selected smart things and simulated. Also, their energy consumption is estimated and analyzed for efficient energy management.
