Abstract

This project is to design software and hardware which has the ability to control and operate every electrical appliances in the house automatically by using computer which that the system can be pre-program by user. Through it, knowledge in design and using programming language for interfacing purposes can be learned and improved. The selection of the Visual Basic 6.0 program is for better fundamental understanding on computer program application in the computer interfacing. This project was separated to three main parts. The first part is designing the software for interfacing, data key in and timing which control by using Graphical User Interface (GUI). The second part is designing the hardware for the project. The third part is joining the entire component that had been design. This paper discusses various aspects of a smart home system especially using parallel port to access and controls home. The purpose of the Smart Home Project is to devise a set of smart electrical appliances to provide better home life experience without overpowering users with technologies. Interfacing takes advantage of low-cost, high-speed input or output port, and compatible with high-level languages. The conception of this project can be apply to other purposes such as for security and reduce electrical power consumption.
