Abstract - The paper is mainly concerned with the
automatic control of light or any other home appliancesusing
internet. It is meant to save the electric power and human
energy . In modern times, people prefer more of automatic
systems rather than manual systems. One of the latest,
emerging and trending technologies is the ‘InternetofThings’.
Here electric appliances are operated bythewebsite.Themain
objective of home automation and security is to help
handicapped and aged people that will enable them to control
home appliances and alert them in critical situations. Home
Automation System uses the technology of Internet of Things
for monitoring and controlling of the electrical and electronic
appliances at home from any remote location by simply using
a Smartphone. Cloud based platforms help to connect to the
things around us so that we can access anything at any time
and any place in a user friendly manner using customized
portals and in built applications. Hence, cloud acts as a front
end to access IOT.
Key Words: Cloud Computing, Internet of Things (IOT),
Home Automation, Raspberry Pi, Wi-Fi.
INTRODUCTION
Wi-Fi E Switch is a web based system using Raspberry pi. As
it has lot of GPIO ports which can be programmed and they
provides user control over various things from smartphone
like energy saving, security, smart system, surveillance,
access control and entertainment [1]. The main aim to
design a system is to save time and manpower along with
maintaining convenience and security. This systemissimply
design to provide comfort, security and it is easilyaccessible.
Internet based Home Automation System isveryconvenient,
easy flexible and cheap [2]. Many devices now have Wi-Fi
and can connect to Smartphones or home computers.
But these devices cannot communicate with each other or
else need additional devices to do so. Thus, these
devices need to be unified, such that they can be monitored
and controlled using one single program or device,
e.g. controlling lights, fans, air-conditioners, oven,
refrigerator, TV etc. by using an application on the
Smartphone [3].

Wireless systems can be of great help for automation
systems . With the advancement of wireless technologies
such as Wi-Fi, cloud networks in the recent past, wireless
systemsare used every day and everywhere. IOT coverageis
very wide and includes variety of objects like smart phones,
tablets, digital cameras and sensors [3]. Once all these
devices are connected to each other, they enable more and
more smart processes and services that support our basic
needs, economies, environment, health etc. Such enormous
number of devices connected to internet provides many
kinds of services and produce huge amount of data and
information. This is very easy to install and require very less
energy i.e. 0.6mV.
PROBLEM DEFINITION
The system offers switching functionalities to control
the appliances connected to the system, which includes
Lights, Fans, Air-conditioners and various other
appliances connected to the system. In India, the
alternating current supplied to our homes is of 230V.
Arduino Board is not capable of withstanding such
high Voltages. Thus, Relays are used to convert this
high voltage to low voltage i.e. less than 5V. The relay
switches have capability to carry a maximum load of 10A
at 240V. To enable connectivity with the microcontroller
Wi-Fi module is used. It provides Internet connectivity,
which allows Internet access and control from the
Android Application effectively and efficiently.

WORKING OF WI-FI E-SWITCH
Power unit receives a input signal from a android
device which is a request for ON or OFF the devices.
Power unit consists of all the circuitory which will process
on the signal.
Central unit contain a Raspberry pi module which is
a central processing unit of the overall circuit. It
receives the input from the android mobile phone
and as per the request, it will ON and OFF the output
devices.
LAN/Wi-Fi is inbuilt in a Raspberry pi module. So to open
the URLWebsite on google then it will display a HTML page
that consists of various switches for controlling various
appliances like light, fan, TV, cooler and many more.
Switches can be one, two, three and so on.

ADVANTAGES
1. Simplicity and affordability.
2. It help to handicapped people.
3. Ease of installation.
4. Reduced installation cost.
CONCLUSION
This system is basically design for controlling various
electrical appliances like TV, Fan, Cooler, Refrigerator,
Air conditioner and many more. Wi-Fi technology capable
solution has proved to be controlled remotely, provide
home security and it is low cost as compared to the
previous system. The system design and architecture
were discussed, and prototype presents the basic
level of home appliance control and remote monitoring
has been implemented. The system is very easy to install
and consume less energy.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We offer our sincere and heartily thank, with deep sense
of obligation to our mentors Ms. Pooja R More for
their priceless guidance, direction and inspiration to
our system work without taking care of theircomprehensive
work. We are also thankful to the all faculty and
technical staff of our college for taking personal
interest in giving us constant support and timely
suggestion.
