Abstract

As humans, we tend to leave the fans and lights ON while leaving the room which consumes a lot of electricity without our knowledge. To reduce electricity consumption and provide comfortability, an attempt is made to automate the home essentials using the IoT. IoT technology has a huge potential to take over the control of home appliances in the coming years. IoT technology will help control home appliances through a mobile device. By automating the home appliances, saving and tracking the usage of electricity would become easier. This paper aims at providing an insight into how IoT, Computer Vision, and commercial off-the-shelf circuit boards like Raspberry Pi and sensors could be interconnected and used to control the home appliances being away from home. Home security systems could also be integrated with the developed system to monitor and secure the house from a remote place. Key Words: IoT, Raspberry Pi, Home appliances, sensors, mobile device.
