Enable smart homes with IoT open-source technologies KEY FEATURES ● Learn to make your home smarter with IoT and AI at a very low cost. ● Live examples along with code and circuit samples which you can readily use. ● Learn scenario-based AI-based home automation techniques. DESCRIPTION This practical guide, "Smart Home Automation with IoT" shows you how to create a smart home without breaking the bank. Instead of relying on expensive, closed systems, you utilize the power of the Internet of Things (IoT) with open-source software to design a custom smart home experience that perfectly suits your needs. This book teaches you to create smart home IoT solutions using Raspberry Pi and microcontrollers like Arduino, NodeMCU (ESP8266), and ESP32. You will learn to program these microcontrollers, control relay modules, and use sensors for data collection. The guide covers using OpenHAB, InfluxDB, Mosquitto MQTT Broker, and Grafana with Raspberry Pi, enabling a unified system without coding. It also shows how to connect OpenHAB to Alexa or Google Home for voice commands and automate tasks like lighting. Bonus content includes using Raspberry Pi GPIO pins, AI-based hand gesture and face detection, and Docker containers. By the end of this book, you will be a confident smart home builder, equipped with the knowledge and skills to design, implement, and manage a customized system using open-source software. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN ● Learn how to implement smart home solution using open-source technologies. ● Learn programming microcontrollers (ESP32, ESP8266, Arduino) using Arduino IDE to integrate with relays and sensors. ● Learn how to install and set up Raspberry Pi for home automation server. ● Learn how to develop Python programs for AI-based automation scenarios. WHO THIS BOOK IS FOR This book aims to be a useful guide for IoT enthusiasts, engineers and professionals, as well as students who want to learn how to DIY smart home automation with IoT.

Internet of Things (IoT) is a recent technology paradigm that creates a global network of machines and devices that are capable of communicating with each other. Security cameras, sensors, vehicles, buildings, and software are examples of devices that can exchange data between each other. IoT is recognized as one of the most important areas of future technologies and is gaining vast recognition in a wide range of applications and fields related to smart homes and cities, military, education, hospitals, homeland security systems, transportation and autonomous connected cars, agriculture, intelligent shopping systems, and other modern technologies. This book explores the most important IoT automated and smart applications to help the reader understand the principle of using IoT in such applications.

Smart Home Automation with Linux and Raspberry Pi shows you how to automate your lights, curtains, music, and more, and control everything via a laptop or mobile phone. You'll learn how to use Linux, including Linux on Raspberry Pi, to control appliances and everything from kettles to curtains, including how to hack game consoles and even incorporate LEGO Mindstorms into your smart home schemes. You’ll discover the practicalities on wiring a house in terms of both and power and networking, along with the selection and placement of servers. There are also explanations on handling communication to (and from) your computer with speech, SMS, email, and web. Finally, you’ll see how your automated appliances can collaborate to become a smart home. Smart Home Automation with Linux was already an excellent resource for home automation, and in this second edition, Steven Goodwin will show you how a house can be fully controlled by its occupants, all using open source software and even open source hardware like Raspberry Pi and Arduino.

The International Conference on Consumer Electronics (ICCE) is soliciting technical papers for oral and poster presentation at ICCE 2018 ICCE has a strong conference history coupled with a tradition of attracting leading authors and delegates from around the world Papers reporting new developments in all areas of consumer electronics are invited This year, papers relating Cybersecurity are particularly welcome Topics around this major theme will be the content of special sessions and tutorials

● The purpose of this book is to explain what IoT is, how it can be used for and what possibilities it offers. For the demonstration of Home Automatio, a consumer market air humidifier is considered. Measurement of air humidity was done with a commercial multi-tool measurement device called Thingsee, which provided the data for the PC that controlled a Wi-Fi switch plug between the humidifier and a wall outlet. ● The book will explain the different technologies used and document the steps of the setup process. ● The book provides an example of a case for developers of how the Thingsee device works and how it can be used for this type of projects. IoT devices are becoming more common electronics in stores and this opens up the possibility for everyone to build their own network of devices with only the imagination as the limit. ● The goal of this book is to give an overview of IoT as a technology and showcase its capabilities. The project successfully managed to optimize an air humidifier's activity by providing the user with more control over humidity levels and increasing its run time be-tween refills. The results showed that the IoT technology can be used to bring improvements to a household appliance with minimal amount of hardware.
