Home Automation System using IoT and IR

Project Title

Home Automation System using IoT and IR

Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject Summary

The internet of things (IoT) is connecting the devices and tools to the internet network
to be controlled by websites and smart phone applications remotely. In case we want to create advanced systems using python algorithms, Wi-Fi or
Ethernet connection is connected to our tools, equipment, and devices controlling them
by smart phone applications or internet websites. That’s actually the simplified
definition of IoT. Farther than just using the IoT as a smart home to operate lamps or
other home-use devices, it can be used as a security system or an industrial-use system,
for example, to open or close the main building gate, to operate full automatic
industrial machine, or even to control internet and communication ports. And more
ideas can be done by using IoT technology. A huge industrial facilities or
governmental institutions have much of lamps. Employees sometimes forget to turn
them off in the end of the day. This research suggests a solution that can save energy
by letting the security to control lighting of the building with his smart home by Blynk
application. The lamps can be controlled by switches distributed in the building and
Blynk application at the same time with a certain electrical installation.

Project Objectives

Objectives
To control and automate the home appliances.
To arrangement and execute monetarily home electrical and mechanical structure.
To assembling a remote home robotization constrained by gadget associated with the web.

Project Implementation Method

1) Analyze the problems to be studied regarding smart home.

2)In this case all needs in researching both from journals, literature books,

tools, and materials.

3)Designing tools to be built using the NodeMCU ESP8266 module, and the

sensors used.

4)Make a program using the Arduino IDE and the Blynk android

application.

5)Testing tools with program codes created and internet connections.

6) Making reports and summarizing the results of the experiment and system responsiveness

to commands given to smart home.

Benefits of the Project

Simple to control the home

 It is consumer friendly

 It is useful for physically disabled and old aged people.

We don't need to move here and there to control our home devices.

We don't need to waste our energy and time.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

we use the following components for our project, these are

Node MCU 

Esp 8266

Relays

Relay driver

IR Remote

IR Sensor

Android Smartphone

PCB

Our project controls the home with very simple ways through remote and by the internet command. With the internet we can control the home appliances with our choice. The Smart Home with this Internet of Things (IoT) based NodeMCU ESP8266 Module can

be implemented to control some of the home electronics performance including lighting

controls, fan control, temperature monitoring, early warning systems and etc.
