In this project, we intend to develop a 'smart home' with a webpage interface. The basic idea of the project is to be able to control and monitor various devices/sensors within the house using an online webpage. We will use an embedded ethernet module, with a microprocessor, to host the webpage and establish a continuous TCP/IP connection between the webpage and the ethernet module. A main wireless module will be interfaced with the embedded ethernet module using the QSPI bus. This main wireless module will be programmed to communicate with other specific wireless modules. Each module will be connected to a microcontroller. The output of the microcontroller will be connected to an electrical device, along with a relay, or a sensor. Thus we will be able to build a "wireless switch" and control various devices remotely:- Using this system, the user will be able to visit a website on an internet browser and log-in with a valid username/password. Once logged in, the user will be presented with a visual model of the house where he can click on certain objects such as doors, lights, fans etc. to make them operate. Also, the user will be able to monitor information from sensors installed inside the house. Since the interface of the entire system is a website, the house will be accessible from anywhere in the world through an internet connection.
