ABSTRACT

Home automation system achieved great popularity in the last decades and it increases the
comfort and quality of life. As technology is advancing and homes are getting smarter,
Modern house are gradually shifting from conventional switches to centralized control
systems. A smart phone application is used to control and monitor the home appliances using
different type of communication techniques. While it also displays other home environment
factors such as temperature and humidity.

Security is becoming a major issue everywhere. Home Security is becoming necessary

nowadays as the possibilities of intrusion is increasing day by day. Today, safety and security
are just a click of the appropriate technology away, and with such advancements happening,
the security of one’s home must also not be left behind. This project is an example of the use
of digital systems design to accomplish that goal, where the security and comfort of a home is
the issue at hand. In this we have applied parking access system in which user can access
parking of their home with registered number plate and vehicle.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Project Summary

To give a gist the project is basically a smart home system which will make life easier
and more comfortable for the users. And also, it will make home smarter and more efficient
which can save electricity. The unique feature of our project is that we can monitor the power
supply of home so the user can know that the supply is active or not. If there will be no power
supply user will be not able to know if they have turned on or turned off the particular device
or home appliance and we can operate the system from any corner of the world using WAN
configuration that’s a plus point in our project.

1.2. Aim and Objective of The Project

The aim of the project is to make user’s home smarter and secure which makes their life
easier and more comfortable. And to make aware the society about this technology and its
usefulness. The objective of the project is comfort, smart technology, energy efficient, 24x7
access to home appliances.

1.3. Problem Specifications

.
Here the project is all about finding out the faults in the automation system which
includes the problem with power supply is that we cannot monitor the power supply of home
so the user cannot know that the supply is active or not. If there will be no power supply user
will be not able to know if they have turned on or turned off the particular device or home
appliance. And the problem with the WAN connectivity is that not all the products in market
is providing this feature and if they provide it then the cost is the issue with that particular
feature and also with the whole system.

3. SYSTEM ANALYSIS
3.1. Study of Current System
The main objective of the project is to operate with an android application or
website/webpage which helps us to operate the home appliances and we can also monitor
temperature and humidity through that so that it can be user friendly and easy to operate.

Here the project is all about finding out the faults in the automation system which includes
the problem with power supply is that we cannot monitor the power supply of home so the
user cannot know that the supply is active or not. If there will be no power supply user will
be not able to know if they have turned on or turned off the particular device or home
appliance. And the problem with the WAN connectivity is that not all the products in market
is providing this feature and if they provide it then the cost is the issue with that particular
feature and also with the whole system.

The unique feature of our project is that we can monitor the power supply of home so the
user can know that the supply is active or not. If there will be no power supply user w ill be
not able to know if they have turned on or turned off the particular device or home appliance
and we can operate the system from any corner of the world using WAN configuration
that’s a plus point in our project.

3.2. Problems and Weaknesses of Current System

During designing of the project idea, we came up with a problem in our project which is it
needs an active internet connection with router but it can be solved by using mobile hotspot.
And a weakness our project have is that it needs 24x7 power supply.

3.3. Requirements of New System

• The proposed system had its focus mainly on the automation of the system, which will also
suffice the expectations and eliminate the problems with the existing manual system.
• Secured Usage: System can only be accessed by those users who are assigned a login and
password. No other user can access the system.
• Enhancing System: The real-time monitoring of temperature, humidity and power supply
will enhance existing System.
• Remotely Operated: The System can be operated remotely which will avoid manual
operating & monitoring of System.

ITMBU – CSE 14
 104452 SYSTEM ANALYSIS

3.4. Feasibility Study

• Network Issues:
There can be issues as there is internet connection required to fetch the details of
temperature monitoring system and also to control the devices.
• Power Supply Issue:
Power supply is required for the working of the system. So, if source of power
supply is not provided to them then the system would not be able to work.
• Device Control / Operation:
There may be large number of users trying to access the application at the same time
due to which any device can be operated by anyone and there are no restrictions on
that.

3.5. Requirements Validation

The new user needs to install the ‘BLYNK’ application on the mobile in order to
operate the system. Secondly, he has to register/sign up on the app in order to operate
the system. User must also have electricity and internet as a basic requirement for
this.
