Abstract

This research paper delves into the development and implementation of an advanced home automation system utilizing internet of things (IoT) technology to bolster safety and comfort within residential environments. The proposed system architecture revolves around an ESP8266 microcontroller board interfaced with a diverse array of sensors, including motion detectors, temperature and humidity sensors, and air quality sensors specifically designed to detect gas leaks. Additionally, the system incorporates a servo motor for stove control and relays for fan activation. The described system adds novel safety-focused features, including servo-controlled stoves and fan-gas leak integration, making it applicable for critical home safety scenarios. However, it shares common weaknesses with existing systems, such as inadequate attention to security, energy efficiency, and scalability. By addressing these gaps, this system could set itself apart as a comprehensive IoT solution for home automation.
