Abstract

Abstract Automation of homes is the most important requirement at present as it helps to conserve almost 40% of the energy that has been consumed and in turn this facilates to reduce the toll on our electricity bill. This method of saving of energy also helps to protect our environment from major sort of emissions. The proposed kit for the above said purpose that has been developed has multiple utilities. The kit uses sensors to sense the temperature that is used for alerting the users when fire is detected, Infra Red (IR) type sensors are employed for detecting the person’s count in the room and hence switching the ON the lights in room. Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) is incorporated in the module for detecting the darkness and hence switching ON the light. Power sensor is deployed for detecting the consumption of power. These values are transmitted to the remote laptop by means of the zigbee communication device. Here two IR sensors are deployed to estimate the direction in which the person is crossing the room door. The zigbee transfers all the sensed data that has been sensed using the sensors instantaneously to the remote device so that a remote user can track the house from a remote location. This also enhances the requirements of security from a remote location.
