Introduction

In now a day's, development and changes of technologies is happens daily as well as

continuous improvement of people's living standards are increasing. The mobile phones

are the inspirable part of human lives today. The mobile phone is the most important part

of human lives today. With the help of this smart gadgets human can do many works with

or without internet like here the researcher can make our home as well as organization

smarter or more luxurious. The phone based on Android system is rapidly developed, so

at it's I/O developers conference, Google showed a sneak preview of it's Android Home

Project, which will extend the Android platform into household objects.

Here the researcher proposed a new technology, so that mobile phones can be used

to communicate with and control electrical switches like Fans, A.C. , Lights etc using

Android App Wi-Fi module. The transmitter of Wi-Fi transmits the data given by the

application using radio waves technology. The Wi-Fi works on radio waves technology,

as the data to be passed through Wi-Fi is converted into the electromagnetic signal which

is then sent using the antenna. This signal is passed to the Arduino controller. The

Arduino further operates the received information and performs operations. This

controller can be connected to the Relays of different switches to pass the current after

generating the magnetic field. In future, the researcher can use router for a wide range

access like for the Smart City projects. New appliances can be added anytime to the

system, which provides for the reliability of the system.

Review of Related Literature

The main purpose of the design is to create a switch on/off with brightness

adjustment system using andriod app via wifi . It contains the ideas and information about

the background of the study. Specifically, it covers the details concerning on android

application, Arduino, and remote control. These are the literature's served as reference to

the development of this design.

Automatic fan speed control system using microcontroller.

Mustafa Saad (2014) has presented, in Electronic and Civil engineering website, an

automatic fan speed control system using microcontroller . This paper describes the design and

construction of the control system that controls the fan speed as the change of the room

temperature takes place. One of the most important concerns involved in heat area consist in

the desired temperature achievement and consumption optimization. Fan can be controlled

manually by pressing on the switch button. where in this method, any change in the temperature

will not give any change in the fan speed. except the usage change the speed of the fan which is

manually. So, an automatic temperature control system technology is needed for the controlling

purpose in the fan speed according to the temperature changes. When the controller receives

input from the sensor that measures the room temperature, the controller will handle the signal

and transmit it to maintain the desired fan speed. The use the LCD is to display the fan speed

and room temperature. Moreover, the fan speed will increase when the room temperature is

increase.
Induction motor speed control using android application

Mr. B. N. Patil (2016). The author has presented in International Journal of

Engineering and Technique website about induction motor speed control using android

application. Android includes support for Bluetooth network, which allows for a wireless

data exchange with other Bluetooth devices. Where the proposed system aims to control

the induction motor speed, using the Android application. In this project an embedded

system was used which is a combination of software and hardware. The system

includes : a coder, controllers, and processors, crystal screens, Android, and Bluetooth

Module. Here Android mobile acts as the transmission and reception by receiving and

linking to the controller. The data is sent via the Android application to provide the

display signal and the electric control valve through optical isolation. The power used is

connected in series with triac that is controlled based on received signals and speed of

induction motor .

Speed control single phase induction motor using android mobile

MR. Sandesh Sonar (2014) has presented a study about the speed control single

phase induction motor using android mobile .The aim of this project is to control the

speed & direction of induction motor using android mobile by helps of Bluetooth

device , which use resistance control technically to control the speed of AC motor. It also

uses the feedback network to detect the over temperature high voltage and low voltage .

In this project the android app is used to connect the Bluetooth modem, which interfaces
with microcontroller, to send the commend to the microcontroller. The microcontroller

decodes the signal and send it to the relay. Then respective relay operator changes the

speed of induction motor .

Fan speed control by TV remote

EDGEFX TEAM has represented in edgefx kits website a system to control the fan speed

using TV remote , with thyristor power control method . This is done by sending data from TV

remote to the control panel, which receives signals from the sensor. When you press any button

on the remote control, the system send encrypted data within the infrared. Then, the data is

implemented by the controller. The power for the system is connected in series with the

thyristor that is controlled on the basis of the signals received. There are 7 segments which are

shown on the screen in an angle position. In this study, a lamp is provided instead of the fan for

demonstration purpose only.
