An Integrated Solution for Monitoring Domestic Appliances Using iot Facilitating Energy Conservation

In this paper, we present an effective implementation of loT(lnternet of Things)which is used for monitoring regular domestic appliances. Our system facilitates energy conservation as well. The proposed system is using the concept of IoT that uses computers or mobile devices to control basic domestic appliances and features automaticallyfrom a large distance. There are five sub-projects namely: automated water tap control system, automated lighting control system, automated door lock system, automated gas detector system and automated temperature control system. The automated water tap control system detects the level of the water and controls the tap accordingly. The automated lighting control system detects the presence of a person in a room and glows the light accordingly. The objective of automated door lock system is to enhance the security of the home. The gas detector system rings an alarm on detecting leakage of any kind of gas. The temperature control system detects the rise in temperature of the room and controls the air conditioner subsequently. The proposed system performs better than all the existing systems in terms of energy efficiency, cost, usability and portability. Our aim is to propose a system which would minimize the wastage of energy as well as human effort starting from our home itself.
