Abstract
In the rapidly advancing digital age, the elderly population often faces challenges adapting to modern smart home technologies, which can limit their independence and safety. These challenges are even more pronounced for individuals with sensory impairments, such as those who are deaf or hard of hearing. To address these issues, this project proposes an IoTEnabled Smart Home System tailored for aged individuals, integrating innovative solutions that enhance accessibility, convenience, and safety. The system leverages Internet of Things (IoT) technology to create a connected ecosystem of devices that automate daily tasks and provide personalized assistance. Key features include a smart doorbell system that replaces traditional sound-based alerts with alternative sensory notifications like vibrations or light signals, ensuring accessibility for hearing-impaired users. Additionally, the system integrates health monitoring sensors, automated lighting, and cloud-based connectivity to enable real-time remotemanagement by caregivers or family members. By using a cloud-based control network, IoT devices, and user-friendly interfaces, the smart home enhances the quality of life for elderly users by improving safety, promoting independence, and reducing caregiver burden. This innovative approach demonstrates the potential of IoT to transform traditional homes into inclusive environments that cater specifically to the needs of the aging population, offering a scalable and impactful solution for modern smart living.
