A Smart Door Security-Based Home Automation System: An Internet of Things

Abstract

The recent advancement in smart technology design with integration of smart sensors and embedded components has rapidly improved human lives in so many areas which includes home automation, smart phones, smart healthcare, smart cars and so on. Therefore, smart home security demand serious attention and is indispensable in this era of internet of things communication over 6LowPAN model using IPv6 addresses for interconnectivities and end to end links. In this paper, the access control, embedded sensors and alarm systems are used for safeguard the device facilities in the home automation for authentication or authorization and users management over the network. However, wireless technology (such as GSM, ultrasonic sensor, and Bluetooth low-power enable) was used for controlling and monitoring home entrance, user authentication, authorization and smart devices management. An android web application was also developed and integrate with the system for home user control remotely. This developed system was equipped with a strict access control and password security features for an intruder denial or violation and also keep the neighbor’s alert of possible human attacks.
