Smart Home is an emerging interdisciplinary subject, which has already enjoyed flourish development all over the world and has become the mainstream of the development of the construction industry in the 21st century. In this paper, through the design of smart home which mainly uses embedded microcontroller design, this vast world of smart home is introduced to everyone, so that they can pay more attention to smart home. Design the embedded system which takes ARM as the core through the model of host - subsystem, through RS485 bus management and control of the control terminal, and process, automatic control and regulation is conducted. The three subsystems of home security, appliance control, family MRs are also used to design home by use of embedded system. The design of smart home control system can make family life more comfortable and convenient, more economic and security, and take a firm step in order to meet the demands of people of safety, comfort, convenience as well as confirm to the green environmental protection.
