Smart Home Integrated with Internet of Things (Iot) in the Digital Era of Industry 4.0

Abstract

Smart Home is one form of technological progress in the Industrial Revolution Era 4.0 that facilitates human activities in controlling and monitoring the condition of the home that is not limited to distance by utilizing electronic equipment, the internet, and smart phones[1]. In this research, a prototype of Smart Home with Internet of Things (IoT) which is equipped with a proximity sensor (HC-SRF04) to open and close the door of the house automatically, a temperature sensor (LM35) in detecting the integrated room temperature on and off based on the fan room temperature, and lights and fans that can be controlled remotely by using the internet and smartphones. Android application to control and monitor homes in Create by using the Blynk application. The Temperature Sensor and Proximity Sensor on Smart Home are tested using Industry standard distance and temperature measuring devices (digital thermometers). The accuracy value of the device reaches 98.22% for distance measurement, and 98.50% for room temperature when compared with industry standard tools. Android applications have been successfully tested in several types of smartphones with different brands and specifications. The distance of the smartphone to the Smart Home location in monitoring and control was successfully tested and worked well at the closest distance of 5 meters to the farthest distance of 17,466 km (State of Mexico), all of which use the Internet.
