Home Automation System using Arduino Microcontroller

Abstract: Modern homes are gradually shifting away from traditional switches and towards centralised control systems with remote-controlled switches. Currently, conventional wall switches located in various parts of the house make it difficult for the user to get close to them in order to operate them. It becomes even more difficult for the elderly or physically disabled people to do so. With smart phones, a remote-controlled home automation system provides the most modern solution. Technology is an ongoing process. Being able to design a product using current technology that will improve the lives of others is a significant contribution to the community. This paper describes the design and implementation of a low- cost, flexible, and secure home automation system based on cell phones.
