Introduction
Wastage of electricity is one of the main
problems which we are facing now a days
Sometimes we waste power while we
forgot to turn OFF the switches of lights,
fans, a/c etc. of our house. It happens as
we are unconscious or in hurry while
leaving home or office

Introduction(contd)
The idea of the project came from the view of
reducing the wastage of power and human
comfort.
This remote control device is able to be controlled
from anywhere of the word using internet from
smart phone/tab/laptop/desktop etc.
So, even if we forget to turn OFF the switches of
our home or office, we can turn them OFF
whenever we recall them using this Wi-Fi based
remote control device.

Objectives
To design a Wi-Fi based remote
controlled electronic device for home
appliances
To construct the Wi-Fi based remote
controlled electronic device
To test the performance of Wi-Fi based
remote controlled electronic device

Steps Followed

Connect with Wi-Fi network

Web server setup
Connect with web server
Get feedback from server
Test the project with LEDs
Test the project with relay interface
Install the device for home automation

Design and Construction

The main components of this project are:
Arduino UNO board
Arduino Wi-Fi shield
Relay module
Web server

Design and Construction(contd)

ARDUINO UNO BOARD:
Arduino board is a
microcontroller embedded
control system.
In general an arduino board
has a microcontroller,
external power supply, usb
interface, reset button, power
led, digital and analog pins

Performance Test
First, the circuit is connected with the power
Wi-Fi network is turned ON and initialized
The home appliances are turned ON with the
switches
With a computer logged in the web server and
ON/ OFF button is pressed
The device receives the signal from the server
and turn ON/OFF the home appliances

Discussion
The construction of Wi-Fi based remote control
system is accomplished on the basis of intended
design.
The system works successfully but it has some
limitations like it takes some longer time to
response with the command. It occurs because
available internet speed is lower.
Whatever, as the major objective is to develop a
Wi-Fi based remote control system, so in this point
of view this project has completed satisfactorily.

Conclusion
In this project and thesis, as a controlling system
this type is applicable for large purposes.
Here it is described about the Wi-Fi based remote
control system which is controlled by web server.
This project can be used for monitoring
home/office/industry remotely.
The performance of the remote control device for
controlling the home appliances is satisfactory.

Future Recommendations
Application of smart phone in android
platform can be developed to control the
and monitor the remote control device
Computer software can be developed for
real time monitoring the remote control
device with data logger.
Webcam can be integrated with the system
for live streaming and surveillance of home
security system
