HOME AUTOMATION WITH ARDUINO

Abstract

Home automation seeks to apply existing technologies to present more efficient means of facilitating tasks that were previously performed strictly manually. This article presents concepts for home automation using Arduino, wireless interaction and Android itself, to simulate a way to leave an automated house, without its owner having to make efforts for some activities, and everything can be controlled by your own mobile device, such as your smartphone, all at the touch of your hand.
