| Summary: | The user’s irresponsible attitude in controlling electrical switches lead
to electricity waste. To propose an alternative way to reduce power
consumptions at UTHM Pagoh Residential College, the Smart Electrical
Appliances Application for UTHM Pagoh Residential College that blends
Internet of Things (IoT) with electrical appliances, has been developed
to provide an efficient method for users to control the appliances by
using their smartphones. It is based on one room at UTHM Pagoh
residential college and equipped with light bulbs and a fan with a DC
motor. This project was made to reduce the cost of electricity and assist
college residents in managing their daily life properly and encourage
more efficient and convenient electricity usage using IoT technology.
The agile development methodology has been chosen as it deems
suitable for this project as it requires multiple improvements that was
based on 6 phases which are planning, design, development, testing,
deployment, and review. We have developed an IoT application by
using C++ programming language that is used to connect the ESP8266
Wi-Fi module with the Blynk application to control the electrical
appliances through smartphones while the voice control function with
using Google Assistant also is applied for this project using the IFTT
software. The interaction between user and Blynk application will send
a signal to the Wi-Fi module that will interact with the relay module
which will result in the switching ON or OFF of the electrical appliances.
As a result, this project will be able to give its' users the opportunity to
benefit it to experience the technology advancement, ease their daily
life and conserve the electrical supply at the same time. In the future,
this project can be used as reference at UTHM Pagoh Residential College
to apply its' concept to their rooms to simplify the resident's life and
preserve the electrical supply |
