An IOT Based Smart Home Automation using Raspberry PI

Home automation is an existing field that has exploded with new technologies. It provides a promising opportunity for designing smart home systems and applications. Home automation concept includes how each device forms a small part of the internet, by which the advanced system is able to interact and communicate, maximizes safety, security, comfort, convenience, and energy-savings. The implementation of proposed work is controlling home appliances using Raspberry Pi. Raspberry Pi is an inexpensive, fully customizable and programmable small computer with support for a large number of peripherals and network communication. The smart home control device is an open-source Wi-Fi enable where all the appliances (light bulb, fan, ac etc.) are connected to the raspberry pi board, and this board is connected to the Wi-Fi by using Wi-Fi module. We give a command to raspberry pi using our laptop. This is very useful for the aged as well as for the physically challenged people, easy to be used for the long halls where a number of switches are more. In today's smart city life everything is automated. To switch ON the ac we need the remote control which we may forget where we had placed it the last time.
