Advancement in automation technology has led to automation in many specific fields which has made life simpler and easier in all aspects. Where in the rise of Internet of Things (IoT) is taking advantage of the evolving automation technology, once such field in which the IoT is taking advantage of automation technology is Home Automation (HA). IoT for home automation is used in order to control home appliances such as lights, ovens, refrigerators, fans etc., In this project we present a home automation system with the help of Raspberry Pi added to which we provide enhanced network security to the home automation system with the open source tools Snort(Wireless Intrusion Detection System-IDS) and IpTables(Firewall).

The dramatic advancments on communication and networking technologies have led to the emergence of Internet-of-Things (IoT). IoT technology has opened the door for various applications. In particular, the home automation was one of the common applications that took the advantage of IoT. Several research efforts have addressed the home automation system using IoT covering wide range of functionalities. One of the concerning tasks is providing a secure system that can give alarms for suspicious activities within the house. This paper presents a secure house system based on IoT where several activities are being sensed and detected. Specifically, gas, humidity, body temperature and motion have been considered within the sensing based on two main types of micro-controller including Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Consequentially, an Android prototype has bene developed in order to give an interactive interface for warning the house owner regarding any suscpicious activities. Results of simulation demonstrated the efficancy of the proposed system

<p>As technology is advancing so house are also getting smarter. Modern houses are gradually shifting from convectional switches to centralized control system, involving remote control switches. Presently, convectional wall switches located in different parts of the house makes it difficult for user to go near them to operate. Even it becomes more difficult for elder people and for physically handicap people to do so.</p> <p>Internet of Things (IoT) conceptualizes the idea of remotely connecting and monitoring real world objects through the Internet. When it comes to our house, this concept can be aptly incorporated to make it smarter, safer and automated. It is a concept where each device is assign to an IP address and through that IP address anyone makes that device identifiable on internet. The Internet is an evolving entity. It started as the Internet of Computers. Research studies have forecast an explosive growth in the number of things or devices that will be connected to the Internet. The resulting network is called the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT is having the potential to change the lifestyle of peoples. In day today’s life, people prefer more of automatic systems rather than any manual systems. The major elements of IoT based home automation system are Raspberry pi and the Relay along with their driving circuitry. Home automation can be defined as a mechanism removing as much human interaction as technically possible and desirable in various domestic processes and replacing them with programmed electronic systems.</p> <p>This project is intended to construct a home automation system that uses any mobile device to control the home appliances. This home automation system is based on IoT. Home automation is very exciting field when it uses new technologies like Internet of Things. Raspberry pi is credit card size computer. Raspberry pi supports large number of peripherals. Raspberry pi is having different communication media like Ethernet port, HDMI port, USB port, Display Serial Interface, Camera Serial Interface, Bluetooth, Bluetooth low energy. It allows to control number of home appliances simultaneously.<b><br> </b><b></b></p>

Home automation has achieved a lot of popularity in recent years, as day-to-day life is getting simpler due to the rapid growth of technology. Almost everything has become digitalized and automatic. In this paper, a system for interconnecting sensors, actuators, and other data sources with the purpose of multiple home automations is proposed. The system is called qToggle and works by leveraging the power of a flexible and powerful Application Programming Interface (API), which represents the foundation of a simple and common communication scheme. The devices used by qToggle are usually sensors or actuators with an upstream network connection implementing the qToggle API. Most devices used by qToggle are based on ESP8266/ESP8285 chips and/or on Raspberry Pi boards. A smartphone application has been developed that allows users to control a series of home appliances and sensors. The qToggle system is user friendly, flexible, and can be further developed by using different devices and add-ons.
