Abstract: We are living in the fourth industrial revolution. Our life is becoming more comfortable and smarter with the help of rapid upgrade of technology. The Internet of things (IoT) is playing a massive role in this. One of the major sides of IoT is a smart home. As we are in the era of never-ending growth of the internet and its application, smart home systems or home automation systems are highly increasing to provide comfort in life and improving the quality of life. In this paper, we present an IoT based low-cost smart home automation system. This system is based on a web portal which is controlled by an ESP32 Wi-Fi module. Also, a custom-made private home web server is developed for maintaining the current state of home appliances.

This paper describes the overall notion of the IOT based sensing systems and monitoring systems for implementing an automated home. The proposed prototype uses Node MCU board with internet being remotely controlled by Android OS smart phone. Node MCU is the heart of this system and it can perform as a micro web server and it acts as an interface for the wide range of hardware modules. To control lights, fans and other home appliances which are connected to the relay system, the system offers switching functionalities.
