A Multilevel Remote Supervisory and Security Network System for Smart Home

Objectives: Home automation is gaining more and more importance in the act of luxurious and secure life. Methods: We propose a system which is user friendly and also increases the level of security with the fusion of inbuilt sensor modules available in any smart phone and the blend of the Bluetooth communication and Internet of Things (IoT) to boost up the security. Findings: The system is designed by means of LPC2148 microcontroller with ARM7TDMI core and Android based smart phone which is used to control all the home appliances like AC, fan, light etc. All the sensors used for environmental monitoring like temperature, humidity, light intensity etc are tapped using the smart phone so as to produce a cost effective system. Applications: The system provides the controlling of the home appliances using Bluetooth communication with smart phone to the controlling unit. The system also provides a self adjusting lighting system with the fusion method and also includes a client server concept for the security issues using IoT for live streaming of H.264 video and G.726 audio to monitor the home environment remotely. The system result shows that the fusion method used gives more comfortable and secured system in addition to cost effectiveness and energy efficient.
