A Home Automation Control System Based on LabVIEW

The objective of this project is to explore the possibility of using X-10 and LabVIEW to control the device in the house. Based on the serial port communication of LabVIEW, the X-10 module can be programmed by using the X-10 commands. Through the power line, all the devices connected to the socket will be controlled. Without replacing the existing wire, it must be an easy control system for the user who has no experience in electronics or communication engineering. Actually, this is a quite practical X-10 home automation system.

Efficient and Secure IoT Based Smart Home Automation Using Multi-Model Learning and Blockchain Technology

The concept of smart houses has grown in prominence in recent years.Major challenges linked to smart homes are identification theft,data safety,automated decision-making for IoT-based devices,and the security of the device itself.Current home automation systems try to address these issues but there is still an urgent need for a dependable and secure smart home solution that includes automatic decision-making systems and methodical features.This paper proposes a smart home system based on ensemble learning of random forest(RF)and convolutional neural networks(CNN)for programmed decision-making tasks,such as categorizing gadgets as“OFF”or“ON”based on their normal routine in homes.We have integrated emerging blockchain technology to provide secure,decentralized,and trustworthy authentication and recognition of IoT devices.Our system consists of a 5V relay circuit,various sensors,and a Raspberry Pi server and database for managing devices.We have also developed an Android app that communicates with the server interface through an HTTP web interface and an Apache server.The feasibility and efficacy of the proposed smart home automation system have been evaluated in both laboratory and real-time settings.It is essential to use inexpensive,scalable,and readily available components and technologies in smart home automation systems.Additionally,we must incorporate a comprehensive security and privacy-centric design that emphasizes risk assessments,such as cyberattacks,hardware security,and other cyber threats.The trial results support the proposed system and demonstrate its potential for use in everyday life.

Implementation and Analysis of an IoT-Based Home Automation Framework

The pervasive advancement in the field of an autonomous system is significantly influenced by the concept of integrating a large number of devices. The use Internet of Things (IoT) has increased day by day for making connected devices over the internet. Besides, mobile sensing devices operated by IoT including smartphones, tablets, digital cameras, sensors, etc. are providing access to a large variety of data and services based on human interaction. In this paper, the implementation and analysis of an IoT-based home automation framework using NodeMCU through the MQTT protocol are described. This helps the users to monitor and control home appliances from remote places by using a mobile application over the internet.

Think Home: A Smart Home as Digital Ecosystem

This work brings all new and advanced technology which is proposed for refinement and improvement in the existing electrification system at domestic as well as commercial levels including hotels, commercial complexes, apartments, rented floors and rooms. This advanced module will not only convey means of luxury but will also accomplish real-time energy monitoring and cost es-timation. This developed module will rule out entire re-wiring and will be fruitful at places where installation of a new meter was a problem. The new system after installation will offer means of comfort to the consumer, elderly as well as handicapped and disabled people in operating electric load with ease and comfort. Apart from this, it would also benefit the apartment/hotel owner’s and business personnel who have rented their property or portion of property and face problems in calculating energy bill.

Embedded Microcontrollers in Energy Conservation System

Energy conservation in homes has become important due to rising energy costs, increasing energy consumption, and a world-wide shift in concerns. This paper discusses an embedded home automation system that provides a method for monitoring and controlling household energy consuming devices. The hardware, software and system interface means utilized for implementation are presented and the particulars of the initial prototype are detailed.

Analysis of the Efficiency-Energy with Regression and Classification in Household Using K-NN

This paper aims to study energy consumption in a house. Home energy managementsystem (HEMS) has become very important, because energy consumption of aresidential sector accounts for a significant amount of total energy consumption.However, a conventional HEMS has some architectural limitations among dimensionalvariables reusability and interoperability. Furthermore, the cost of implementation inHEMS is very expensive, which leads to the disturbance of the spread of a HEMS.Therefore, this study proposes an Internet of Things (IoT) based HEMS with lightweightphotovoltaic (PV) system over dynamic home area networks (DHANs), which enablesthe construction of a HEMS to be scalable reusable and interoperable. The study suggestsa technique for decreasing cost of energy that HEMS is using and various perspectives insystem. The method that proposed is K-NN (K-Nearest Neighbor) which helps us toanalyze the classification and regression datasets. This paper has the result from the datarelevant in October 2018 from some buildings of Nanjing University of InformationScience and Technology.

Online Fuzzy Logic Base Algorithm for Electricity Price Prediction

This paper presents a web-based system to predict the electricity prices.The proposed system captures the geographical location,weather forecast,and oil price for one week ahead.The captured parameters are fed to a fuzzy-logic-based algorithm to calculate electric energy prices.Based on predicted electricity prices,consumers can turn ON/OFF or reschedule operations of their home appliances to reduce their electricity bill.The proposed algorithm was developed and hosted in a utility server(U-server).On the consumer side,a home gateway(H-gateway),and a monitoring and control system was designed,built,and tested by using a single chip microcontroller.

Do Well to Dwell Well. Awareness as the Driver for the Behaviour of Tomorrow’s Citizens

Because of the impact of global warming,the Earth’s ecosystems are currently at a critical stage.The European building sector,and the residential element in particular,is responsible for the largest portion of energy enduse.Although we know how to build a perfectly engineered house,it will not work properly if its inhabitants do not know how to run it.“Well-educated”dwellers can really improve energy use.The aim of this research is to optimize the users’role in the energy reduction process,analysing as a case study,Dwell!,the monitoring system designed for“RhOME for denCity”,the housing prototype developed by Roma Tre University and winner of the“Solar Decathlon Europe”competition in 2014.
