An Automatic Basic Smart Home Prototype System

Abstract

The term "internet of things" (IoT) describes a network of interconnected hardware, software, and services that enable users to control hardware and software remotely from a computer, smartphone, or other internet-connected device. It also describes the use of code and algorithm frameworks to control hardware and software for use in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. If we want to create complicated systems utilising Python algorithms, we can manage our equipment, materials, and products remotely using mobile apps or online interfaces by connecting them to a Wi-Fi or Ethernet network. That provides a very brief definition of the Internet of Things. Beyond the "smart home," where it is largely used to control lighting and other home appliances, the Internet of Things (IoT) has a wide range of uses. It can also be used as a network security system or a factory system, for example, to operate completely automatic industrial machines, unlock or lock the main building door, or control network and telephone connections. However, with the aid of Internet of Things technologies, more may be achieved. Large structures like industries and government buildings often have a tonne of lighting fixtures. Some employees don't turn them off before leaving the office. The study's suggested energy-saving tactic is to have the security guard control the building's lighting using the Blynk app on a smart smartphone. Switches placed around the building and the Blynk app may both be used to control the lights depending on the wiring configuration. This paper presents a fundamental smart home prototype or a low-cost, straightforward approach to regulating loads over a Wi-Fi network.
