Abstract: In the recent years drastic changes were occurred in the mobile communications and embedded systems. Now we incorporate mobile technology in automation systems. We propose a mobile based home automation system that consists of a mobile phone with android capabilities and a home wi-fi connection. The home appliances are controlled by the android application through wi-fi which operates according to the user commands received from the mobile phone via the wi-fi modem. In the proposed system the home wi-fi is built upon the graphical user interface through the smart phone android application and a micro controller, allowing a user to control and monitor any variables related to the home by using any android capable cell phone. The design and implementation of modem driver, text based command processing software and power failure resilient output of a micro controller to facilitate in sending and receiving data via the cell module together with the design of android application to enable the cell phone to send commands and receive the status of home appliances. Now we can control home appliances on our figures with long distance range. So that it provide time saving, power saving, alerts etc. And, also you can just imagine how simple would it be to implement such a system in your home that too at a very reasonable cost by using cost-effective devices.
