 INTRODUCTION
The Bluetooth wireless technology is set to revolutionize the way people
perceive digital devices in our homes and office environment. Now they are
no longer just the individual devices; instead, with the embedded Bluetooth
technology, they form a network in which appliances communicate with
each other. This wireless technology is especially useful in home
environment, where there exists hardly any infrastructure to interconnect
intelligent appliances. It could be suitably used for home automation in a
cost-effective manner. Operating over unlicensed, universe-sally available
frequency of 2.4 GHz, it can link digital devices within a range of 10 m
(expandable to 100 m, the transmitted power) at the speed of 1
Mbps.Building upon this theme; we propose a home automation system
based on Bluetooth technology .There are certain issues involved in the
design of a home automation system. The system should be scalable, so
that new device can easily be integrated into it. It should provide user-
friendly interface on the host side, so that the device scan be setup,
monitored and controlled. The interface should also provide some
diagnostic services so those problems with the system, if any, can be
tracked down. The overall system should be fast enough to realize the true
power of wireless technology. It should also be cost effective in order to
justify its application in home automation. The system developed during
the course of this research consists of a Host Controller (HC) implemented
on a Personal Computer (PC), and a microcontroller based temperature-
sensor/fan-controller, that is able to communicate with the host through
the Bluetooth link. The system is based on Home Automation Protocol
(HAP), developed by the authors in order to facilitate the master – slave
communication in a home automation network [3]. This protocol ensures a
prioritized, interlocked exchange of data. It also supports dynamic addition
and removal of devices on the network. A user interface on the PC offers
device registration, control as well as diagnostic utilities.
 OBJECTIVE
The objective of a Bluetooth-controlled home automation system is to
provide a convenient and seamless way to control various smart devices
and appliances within a home using Bluetooth technology. By enabling
Bluetooth communication between a smartphone or tablet and the home
automation system, users can remotely control lighting, temperature,
security cameras, smart plugs, and other IoT devices, enhancing comfort,
security, and energy efficiency. This system offers greater flexibility and
accessibility, allowing users to manage their home environment from
anywhere within the Bluetooth range.
The aim of the project Is to design and construct a home automation
system that will remotely switch on or off any household appliances
connected to it, using a microcontroller, voice dial on phone, or Bluetooth
based android application
This project work is complete on its own in remotely and automatically
switching on or off of an electrical appliance not limited to household
appliances and sends a feedback message indicating the new present
state of the appliance.
This project is one of the important Arduino Projects. Arduino based home
automation using Bluetooth project helps the user to control any electronic
device using Device Control app on their Android Smartphone. The android
app sends commands to the controller Arduino, through wireless
communication, namely, Bluetooth. The Arduino is connected to the main
PCB

 FUNCTIONAL MODULE OF PROJECT

1. Bluetooth Communication Module: This module handles the

Bluetooth communication between the user’s smartphone or tablet
and the home automation system. It enables data exchange,
commands, and feedback between the devices.
2. Device Control Module: This module manages the control of
individual smart devices and appliances within the home. It interprets
the commands received via Bluetooth and activates or deactivates
the respective devices accordingly.
3. User Interface Module: This module provides a user-friendly interface
on the smartphone or tablet, allowing users to interact with the home
automation system. It can be a mobile app or a web-based interface
that displays device status, settings, and enables device control.
4. Automation Rules Module: This module allows users to set up
automation rules and scenarios. For example, users can schedule
lights to turn on or off at specific times, or trigger actions based on
certain events like motion detection or temperature changes.
5. Security Module: This module handles the security aspects of the
system, ensuring that only authorized devices can connect and
control the home automation system via Bluetooth.
6. Energy Management Module: This module can monitor and optimize
energy usage by tracking device consumption and providing insights
to the user for better energy efficiency.
7. Data Logging Module: This module records and stores relevant data,
such as device usage patterns, user preferences, and system
performance, which can be used for analysis and system
improvement.
8. Notifications Module: This module can send notifications to the
user’s smartphone about important events, such as security breaches,
low battery levels, or abnormal device behavior.
