ABSTRACT
The automation and security concept attribute the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) in a vast advanced topographical territory. IoT refers to the interconnection between numerous sensors and the cloud. It is a network where devices are embedded with sensors, actuators, and software. IoT is implemented in smart home security and automation to improve the environment with the ease of digitalization, promising to make every small task effective while improving personal satisfaction for home occupants. When the talk comes with the house, the concept of making it safer, smarter, and automated comes to play. The huge arrangement of the IoT is empowering smart security and automation techniques all over the world. This chapter concentrates on developing an automation system for smart home and wireless security, which convey the alerts to the homeowner by using web (through ThingSpeak) triggering an alarm, needed according to the range of values set, using Wireless Sensor Network (WSNs); Wi-Fi as a communication protocol and android app for remote controlling of devices. The proposed system works on the real-time monitoring with the app. Alert system in case of fire, air saturation level. App-based remotely controlled energy-efficient and data encryption controls system for home appliances like fans, window cartons, energy consumption, tube lights, using various sensors and actuators. This chapter also explores the different pieces of smart home. It includes gas leakage information, temperature, and humidity using various sensors connected to the microprocessor and internet.
