Abstract

On 21st Century, it is the rising up generation of smartphone. Smartphone is become indispensable in people's lives. It is whether in social network, e-learning or entertainment. For examples, you want to chat with other peoples, search information, playing electronic games or listen to music. Now, all can have done on the phone by one click, APPs (Applications) makes life be more convenient and excellent. In this project, I decided to build up a smart classroom model. This classroom operation is different to the tradition classroom. Traditionally classroom is facilitated with different type of electrical equipment or accessories to help teachers in the classroom. In the past, most of control devices and facilities in classroom are using mechanical on/off switch and wiring system. Sometimes, teacher often forgot to turn off the electrical device when he/she left the room. It is resulted waste energy as well. The electrical installation works in the classroom are very complicated. My designed system is a set of control through wireless system. It contained with an Apps, Bluetooth, Arduino and PLC. The first part is use smartphone platform, the second is signal transfer through Bluetooth transmit to Arduino. And the last is hard model with PLC control. Simply said, it use and Android platform to control all devices in the classroom. I hope, I can use this system in the classroom.
