Project Summary

This is a project for a voice controlled home automation system to control appliances with your voice through an Android app and also through a microphone and Voice recognition module.

Any person can use this project to control any electronic appliance. This can be done by an app on his/her Smartphone and through mic. The user can send instructions orally to the Android application or microphone which in turn passes on these commands/instructions to the respberry pi module, via Bluetooth and wifi which is a medium of wireless communication. We have interfaced the respberry pi to the main circuit. This circuit has total 4 relays. The user can connect relays to various electronic home appliances and control them through voice commands. Using voice recognition module, module recognize tha voice of authentic person. Every one cannot control the appliances, only authentic people can control the system. The security through app is when any one connect the app to the respberry pi module, module requires a password. The password is only known to authenticate person. 

Project Objectives

In this project, we will achieve to design a home controlling system using voice commands. The project will also be able to recognize the voice of specific person to control the appliances. The system which we have to design will be relatively user friendly. The main objective is that a person can control his home appliances from anywhere through android app via wifi.  Another objective of this project is to give relief to peoples specially for old and paralyzed peoples. They can control home appliances through thier voice from any place of room or house without doing any physical action.

Project Implementation Method

The method for implementation of the home automation by using the voice command involves the following milestones.

• The Mic will detect the sound of the user and send it to the low noise amplifier to compress the noise which adds to the original sound from surrounding and amplify the original sound to the voice recognition module.
• The voice recognition module recognizes the sound command from the user and sends it to raspberry pi module to perform the specific operation.
• The Raspberry pi module converts this sound into the controller language and sends it to the relay module.
• The Relay module operates the specific operation that a user wants to perform.

Benefits of the Project

The project has following benefits:

• This system will used to control different loads (electrical appliances) with simple voice commands.
• This kind of system can be used in hospitals, homes, offices and also in industries to operate different loads.
• This system can be used where less manpower, effort and less time required.
• This system can be used for avoiding electrical power short circuits.
• The system will improve or simplify your home security.

• The inefficiency of operation of conventional wall switches can be overwhelmed using various home automation systems (without using conventional switching methods).
• The loss of power can be reduced and manpower required for home automation is very less compared to conventional methods.
• By using a home automation system, we can save a lot of time to operate home appliances from anywhere (without wasting time to move from office to home for just unlocking door for family members to enter the home).
