Abstract:

Nowadays without electricity, we cannot imagine our daily life as electricity has become a necessity for all, without which day-to-day life chores become stand still.

People do not focus on the wastage of electricity around them. Sometimes we notice various electrical appliances keep on working even in the absence of people.

This negligence can be seen in most of the public places, offices etc. However, there is a solution to control energy wastage at home by using automatic light control.

In this project, we will focus on the Automatic light control using Arduino and Passive Infrared (PIR) Sensor, where the lights in the room will automatically turn ON when human presence is detected and turn off when no one is present.

The objective of this project is to implement a low-cost home automation system to control home appliances.
