Usage of Raspberry Pi in Home Automation

Abstract

ABSTRACT In this paper, we demonstrate the working of home automation using Raspberry Pi. Microcontroller and microprocessor are used to develop home control and automation system of low cost. The proposed system is highly feasible and effective as it is built from light switches, power plugs, fans, motor, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, and infrared sensors devices. Internet is used to set the novel communication protocol to monitor the control the home automation system.
