Home Automation with Loads Status Detection Using GSM

DOWNLOAD ABSTRACT

AIM:

Design and development of Home Automation with Loads status detection using GSM.

PURPOSE:

In homes, there will be various loads to be operated and these loads are to be operated at some specific intervals according to our requirements and also based on the device constraints. For these purposes, a person should be employed to monitor the status of the loads. But there may be chances that the person may forget to operate these loads. And also, it is not an easy task for a person to operate these loads manually as these loads run with high currents and high-power consumption. This project gives the best solution for electrical power wastage. Also, the manual operation is completely eliminated. This project is implemented on wireless technology. One of wireless communication system is GSM as it is very cheap and very easy   to implement. Here we have implemented home automation with loads status detection using GSM.

DESCRIPTION:

This project includes GSM (Sim800c) module, which is connected to Arduino through UART interface. Three loads connected to Arduino digital pins which are light, fan and motor respectively through relays.

WORKING:

User can control loads through SMS. Arduino reads SMS commands and based on command Arduino controls loads accordingly. User can know loads status by sending request SMS to Arduino. Loads status displaying on LCD.
