In recent years, the smart home field has gained wide attention for its broad application prospects. However, families using smart home systems must usually adopt various heterogeneous smart devices, including sensors and devices, which makes it more difficult to manage and control their home system. How to design a unified control platform to deal with the collaborative control problem of heterogeneous smart devices is one of the greatest challenges in the current smart home field. The main contribution of this paper is to propose a universal smart home control platform architecture (IAPhome) based on a multi-agent system and communication middleware, which shows significant adaptability and advantages in many aspects, including heterogeneous devices connectivity, collaborative control, human-computer interaction and user self-management. The communication middleware is an important foundation to design and implement this architecture which makes it possible to integrate heterogeneous smart devices in a flexible way. A concrete method of applying the multi-agent software technique to solve the integrated control problem of the smart home system is also presented. The proposed platform architecture has been tested in a real smart home environment, and the results indicate that the effectiveness of our approach for solving the collaborative control problem of different smart devices.

Controlling Home Appliances remotely is à main part of automation. There is a great deal of inconvenience in controlling each digital home appliance with its own separate remote. In this paper we present an advanced universal remote which can control and regulate lights, fans and also any IR controlled Home appliance like TV, home theater, air conditioner etc. This paper gives the design on how to build this remote and how we can turn our smart phone into a true universal remote which will be both versatile and have capability to easily learn new devices and new IR protocols.

“…The device must possess the capability to regulate all protocols and operate with any television produced by any manufacturer, encompassing Sony, Panasonic, and Sharp. Notwithstanding these objections, the global remote should operate and adapt automatically to any changes in protocol that may occur on a daily basis [3].…”

People touch switches to operate high-voltage electrical appliances like water motor pumps and other domestic appliances during the rainy season, which puts them at risk for electric attacks. This is due to people's modern concepts, their capacity for time management, and for their own security [14], [17]. Since rapid technology innovation continually attempts to help people, the expectation of living a simple yet sophisticated existence is always rising. For social and educational purposes, humans currently largely rely on the internet; without it, they would be entirely worthless. A range of mechanical, electrical, and electronic systems are used in a number of infrastructures and the Internet of Things (IoT) devices control and monitor these systems. These items are communicated or alerted to a single person (also known as the admin) who runs the cloud server, among other things. The network was logged in by every authorized user. Electrical and electronic devices of various devices are connected and remotely operated using various network infrastructures. Simply said, the difficulty of manually turning switches off and on is eliminated when switching them on using a web browser on a laptop, smartphone, or other smart device. Even while smart switches are currently available, they are still fairly pricey because we needed additional gear, such as a hub or switch, in order to use them. With regard to the function of the media used for connection with the equipment and the microcontroller, a number of connecting tools for wireless technology are offered on the market due to the rapid pace of development [1]. As mobile communication technology has proliferated in the modern period, people's lives and work habits are changing. With the quick development of mobile technology, we now have access to the whole globe. Today, a single mobile phone may be utilised with A B S T R A C TThe Internet of Things (IoT) technology, which has made everything smart and intelligent, has changed every element of the normal person's existence. IoT refers to a system of autonomous, networked things. Owing to contemporary thinking, time management, and for the protection of people from electric attacks during the rainy season as a result of touching switches to run household appliances, water motor pumps, and other high volt electrical equipment. The digitally controlled electronics switches were employed in place of the manual switches to solve this issue. The microcontroller was used to interface these electrical switches with user commands and operate them. Automated components of residential dwellings include draperies, gates, and other objects. Curtains, gates, and other items are some examples of automated parts of residential buildings. Control is automated or at least largely automatic. The ability to view the house from the internet is offered by a number of modern options devices, but this might conflict with the user's application. Due to the fact that users will always require internet access in order to check on the status...
