 ABSTRACT

The main objective of this project is to develop a home

automation system using an Arduino board with Bluetooth being
remotely controlled by any Android OS smart phone. As technology is
advancing so houses are also getting smarter. Modern houses are
gradually shifting from conventional switches to centralized control
system, involving remote controlled switches. Presently, conventional
wall switches located in different parts of the house makes it difficult
for the user to go near them to operate. Even more it becomes more
difficult for the elderly or physically handicapped people to do so.
Remote controlled home automation system provides a most modern
solution with smart phones. In order to achieve this, a Bluetooth
module is interfaced to the Arduino board at the receiver end while on
the transmitter end, a GUI application on the cell phone sends
ON/OFF commands to the receiver where loads are connected. By
touching the specified location on the GUI, the loads can be turned
ON/OFF remotely through this technology. The loads are operated by
Arduino board through opto- isolators and thyristors using triacs.

 INTRODUCTION

Nowadays, we have remote controls for our television sets and other
electronic systems, which have made our lives really easy. Have you ever
wondered about home automation which would give the facility of
controlling tube lights, fans and other electrical appliances at home using
a remote control? Off-course, Yes! But, are the available options cost-
effective? If the answer is No, we have found a solution to it. We have
come up with a new system called Arduino based home automation using
Bluetooth. This system is super-cost effective and can give the user, the
ability to control any electronic device without even spending for a remote
control. This project helps the user to control all the electronic devices
using his/her smartphone. Time is a very valuable thing. Everybody wants
to save time as much as they can. New technologies are being introduced
to save our time. To save people's time we are introducing Home
Automation system using Bluetooth. With the help of this system you can
control your home appliances from your mobile phone. You can turn on/off
your home appliances within the range of Bluetooth.

To develop a Bluetooth based home automation system with Arduino

UNO Board and an Android application. • Remote controlled home
automation system provides a simpler solution with Android application
technology. • Remote operation is achieved by any smartphone/Tablet
etc., with Android OS, upon a GUI (Graphical User Interface) based touch
screen operation.

 WORKING PRINCIPLE

This project is one of the important Arduinos 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
which has five relays as shown in the block diagram. These relays
can be connected to different electronic devices like lights,
television, fan, etc.
When the user presses on the ‘On’ button displayed on the app
for the device 1, the Buzzer is switched on. This Buzzer can be
switched off, by pressing the same button again.
Similarly, when the user presses on the ‘On’ button displayed on
the app for the device 2, the fan is switched on. The fan can be
switched off, by pressing the same button again.
This project of home automation using Bluetooth and Arduino can
be used for controlling any AC or DC devices

 Android studio isn't really required here, since I will provide you
with the Android application that I made. You can install the given
.apk file to use the application.
 Arduino Bluetooth controller App

Ever thought of controlling any of your electronic devices with

your smartphone? How about a robot or any other device? Wouldn't
it be cool to- control them with your smartphone? Here is a simple
tutorial for interfacing an Android smartphone with Arduino via
Bluetooth.

5
6
 This is just a basic on interfacing a Bluetooth module with
Arduino. This project can be taken to a higher level, like home
automation using a smartphone, smartphone-controlled robots,
and much more.

Pair your device with the HC 05/06 Bluetooth module.

Turn ON the HC 05/06 Bluetooth module by powering the Arduino.
Scan your smartphone for available devices Pair your smartphone
to the HC 05/06 by entering default password 1234 OR 0000. your
Bluetooth module from the list (HC-05/06) connecting successfully,
press the ON button to turn the LED on and the OFF button to
turn the LED off the button to disconnect the Bluetooth module.

 In the below wiring diagram, the phase line is connected
parallel to the light switch and the plug socket switch. Here, one
pole of the both SPST (single pole single throw) switches s1 & s2
are connected to the phase line of the supply. The other pole of
switch s1 is connected to the lamp and the other pole of switch s2
is connected to the phase pole of the three-pin socket.
The earth line is connected to the earth pole of the socket and
the neutral line is commonly distributed to the lamp and neutral
pole of the socket.
Here only one lamp is connected from the switch box. The
number of loads can be extended by adding more loads in parallel
to the lamp. But, the wiring capacity and rating of components
should be considered while adding more loads in parallel. For the
independent control of additional loads, connect the loads directly
from the phase through another switch.

Features of The Arduino Uno Board Used in Circuit:

 It is an easy USB interface. This allows interface with USB as this is

like a serial device.
 The chip on the board plugs straight into your USB port and supports
on your computer as a virtual serial port. The benefit of this setup is
that serial communication is an extremely easy protocol which is time-
tested and USB makes connection with modern computers and makes
it comfortable.
 It is easy-to-finding the microcontroller brain which is the ATmega328
chip. It has a greater number of hardware features like timers,
external and internal interrupts, PWM pins and multiple sleep modes.
 It is an open source design and there is an advantage of being open
source is that it has a large community of people using and
troubleshooting it. This makes it easy to help in debugging projects.
 It is a 16 MHz clock which is fast enough for most applications and
does not speeds up the microcontroller.
 It is very convenient to manage power inside it and it had a feature of
built-in voltage regulation. This can also be powered directly off a USB
port without any external power. You can connect an external power
source of up to 12v and this regulates it to both 5v and 3.3v.
 13 digital pins and 6 analog pins. This sort of pins allows you to
connect hardware to your Arduino Uno board externally. These pins
are used as a key for extending the computing capability of the
Arduino Uno into the real world. Simply plug your electronic devices
and sensors into the sockets that correspond to each of these pins and
you are good to go.
 This has an ICSP connector for bypassing the USB port and
interfacing the Arduino directly as a serial device. This port is
necessary to re-boot load your chip if it corrupts and can no longer used
to your computer.
 It has a 32 KB of flash memory for storing your code.
 An on-board LED is attached to digital pin 13 to make fast the
debugging of code and to make the debug process easy.
 Finally, it has a button to reset the program on the chip.

Arduino Technology:
A typical example of the Arduino board is Arduino Uno. It includes an
ATmega328 microcontroller and it has 28-pins the pin configuration of the
Arduino Uno board is shown in the above. It consists of 14-digital i/o pins.
Wherein 6 pins are used as pulse width modulation o/ps and 6 analog i/ps,
a USB connection, a power jack, a 16MHz crystal oscillator, a reset button,
and an ICSP header. Arduino board can be powered either from the
personal computer through a USB or external source like a battery or an
adaptor. This board can operate with an external supply of 7-12V by giving

voltage reference through the IORef pin or through the pin Vin.

11
Arduino Architecture:
Basically, the processor of the Arduino board uses the Harvard architecture
where the program code and program data have separate memory. It
consists of two memories such as program memory and data memory.
Wherein the data is stored in data memory and the code is stored in the
flash program memory. The Atmega328 microcontroller has 32kb of flash
memory, 2kb of SRAM 1kb of EPROM and operates with a 16MHz clock
speed.

 SOFTWARE USED

 Arduino IDE

The open-source Arduino Software (IDE) makes it easy to write code and upload
it to the board. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The environment is written
in Java and based on Processing and other open-source software. This software can be
used with any Arduino board.
Arduino is an open-source prototyping platform used for building electronics
projects. It consists of both a physical programmable circuit board and a software, or
IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that runs on your computer, where you can
write and upload the computer code to the physical board.
The Arduino language is merely a set of C/C++ functions that can be called from
your code. Your sketch undergoes minor changes (e.g. automatic generation of function
prototypes) and then is passed directly to a C/C++ compiler (avr-g++).
Over the years Arduino has been the brain of thousands of projects, from everyday
objects to complex scientific instruments. A worldwide community of makers -
students, hobbyists, artists, programmers, and professionals - has gathered around this
open-source platform, their contributions have added up to an incredible amount
of accessible knowledge that can be of great help to novices and experts alike.

Arduino was born at the Ivrea Interaction Design Institute as an easy tool for fast
prototyping, aimed at students without a background in electronics and programming.
As soon as it reached a wider community, the Arduino board started changing to adapt
to new needs and challenges, differentiating its offer from simple 8-bit boards to
products for IoT applications, wearable, 3D printing, and embedded environments. All
Arduino boards are completely open-source, empowering users to build them
independently and eventually adapt them to their particular needs. The software, too, is
open-source, and it is growing through the contributions of users worldwide. There are
many other microcontrollers and microcontroller platforms available for physical
computing. Parallax Basic Stamp, Netmedia's BX-24, Phidgets, MIT's Handyboard, and
many others offer similar functionality. All of these tools take the messy details of
microcontroller programming and wrap it up in an easy-to-use package. Arduino also
simplifies the process of working with microcontrollers, but it offers some advantage
for teachers, students, and interested amateurs over other systems:

28
ADVANTAGES OF ARDUINO SOFTWARE: -

 Inexpensive - Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other

microcontroller platforms. The least expensive version of the Arduino module
can be assembled by hand, and even the pre-assembled Arduino modules cost
less than $50
 Cross-platform - The Arduino Software (IDE) runs on Windows, Macintosh
OSX, and Linux operating systems. Most microcontroller systems are limited to
Windows.
 Simple, clear programming environment - The Arduino Software (IDE) is easy-
to-use for beginners, yet flexible enough for advanced users to take advantage of
as well. For teachers, it's conveniently based on the Processing programming
environment, so students learning to program in that environment will be familiar
with how the Arduino IDE works.
 Open source and extensible software - The Arduino software is published as open
source tools, available for extension by experienced programmers. The language
can be expanded through C++ libraries, and people wanting to understand the
technical details can make the leap from Arduino to the AVR C programming
language on which it's based.
 Open source and extensible hardware - The plans of the Arduino boards are
published under a Creative Commons license, so experienced circuit designers
can make their own version of the module, extending it and improving it.

 CONCLUSION

The system as the name indicates, ‘Home automation’ makes

the system more flexible and provides attractive user interface
compared to other home automation systems. In this system we
integrate mobile devices into home automation systems. A novel
architecture for a home automation system is proposed using the
relatively new communication technologies. The system consists of
mainly three components is a BLUETOOTH module, Arduino
microcontroller and relay circuits. WIFI is used as the
communication channel between android phone and the Arduino
microcontroller. We hide the complexity of the notions involved in
the home automation system by including them into a simple, but
comprehensive set of related concepts. This simplification is
needed to fit as much of the functionality on the limited space
offered by a mobile device’s display. This paper proposes a low cost,
secure, ubiquitously accessible, auto-configurable, remotely
controlled solution. The approach discussed in the paper is novel
and has achieved the target to control home appliances remotely
using the WI-FI technology to connects system parts, satisfying
user needs and requirements. Wi-Fi technology capable solution
has proved to be controlled remotely, provide home security and is
cost-effective as compared to the previously existing systems.
Hence, we can conclude that the required goals and objectives of
home automation system have been achieved. The system design
and architecture were discussed, and prototype presents the basic
level of home appliance control and remote monitoring has been
implemented. Finally, the proposed system is better from the
scalability and flexibility point of view than the commercially
available home automation system.
