Automation plays a key role in the human lives. Enabling objects in a typical household to be connected to the Internet allow home-owners to remotely monitor and control them. Home automation not only refers to reduce human’s day-to-day efforts but also energy efficiency and time saving. The availability of affordable smartphone, micro-controllers and other open-source hardware along with the increasing use of cloud services, has made it possible to develop low-cost smart home security systems. As a combination of commercial interests and government initiatives have made smart homes, smart healthcare, smart cities, and smart transport primary areas of focus for IOT application development. The purpose of this paper is to present a low-cost architecture using a Bluetooth based voice activation control for smart home appliances. A research word proved that the Bluetooth system are faster than wireless and GSM system and it has a ability to transmit data serially up to 3Mbps and physically it ranges from 10m to 100m depending on the type of Bluetooth device. In this project, an inexpensive architecture is proposed for the smart home automation that will utilize an Arduino Mega2560, HC-05 Bluetooth module, LCD, IOT module for monitoring and controlling purpose, Relay and power supply.

HC-05 Bluetooth module, IOT module, WiFi, Arduino Mega 2560, remote access.
