Abstract

This project is entitled “Smart Home Electrical Appliances Controlling Via Android Smartphone”. The advancement of smart home technology had improved human’s quality of living. There are two types of smart home network technology which are wiring system and wireless system. For wiring system, the equipment is connected directly with the main power supply and the data is sent to activate or deactivate the home appliances. For wireless system, two important elements which are sender and receiver are involved. The appliances can communicate with other devices through wireless technology such as Wi-Fi, infrared, Bluetooth, radio frequency and IEEE 802.11. The motivations of this project are to decrease the cost of smart home products and to overcome the range issue of Bluetooth technology that had implemented in many existing smart home projects. Due to the busy lifestyles of people, many electrical appliances are left turned on when it is not in use. When residents go out without turn off their home appliances, they must go home to turn off the electrical appliances to avoid any additional of electricity consumption, so it is impossible for residents to waste petrol and time to do such action. With the advance of technology, the use of internet will be developed to this smart home system. The Android smartphone will be used for controlling and monitoring the home appliances using the application. A low cost smart home system also will be developed.
