IoT based automatic light control with temperature monitoring and alert mechanism

Abstract

Currently, energy saving has become one of crisis that needs to be addressed by the entire world as it is known that energy saved is energy produced. Especially, power consumption at home plays a major role in energy saving. At times, the light is on when people forget to switch off the light while leaving the room. This may lead to waste of energy and economy issues. Thus, it is the need of the hour to propose automatic light control system that turns on and off automatically based on the human presence in the room. Sensors are used to detect the human presence in the room which automatically controls the light. Also, the proposed system alerts the user through mail when the room temperature is increased beyond certain level through temperature and humidity sensors.
