Abstract:
This project report presents a comprehensive analysis of the implementation and impact of an
electrical-electronic smart home system, undertaken to help ease the control of switches. The
project was carried out over a period of approximately 1,000 hours and involved multiple phases
including planning, execution, and evaluation.
The primary objective of the project was to simplify the control system of home electricity, which
was achieved through microcontroller along with GSM module. Data was collected using
discussions from lecturers at the university, house hold heads and analyzed to measure the
outcomes and impact.
Key findings from the project indicate that most of the time, people forget to turn off their lights
when leaving their homes or rooms which results into payment of electricity bills where it has not
been used. The project successfully made useful impact on myself during the working, while also
highlighting areas for improvement such as automation technology.
The report concludes with recommendations for future projects, emphasizing the importance of
smart home automations. Overall, this project has demonstrated the importance of smart home
technology in the electrical sectors.
