What is home automation using Bluetooth?

The system switches the home appliances ON and OFF using the android app, Bluetooth module, and voiced prompt. It can also be timed to switch off appliances for a pre-time of 12 h, thus making the application easy and convenient to operate via a smartphone.

How do I control my Arduino Bluetooth with my phone?

First off, pair the phone and the module by scanning for new devices in the Bluetooth tab of the System Settings. The name which was set earlier should appear. Put in the set passcode (Default is either 0000 or 1234). After you power on the Arduino, you may notice that the BTBee’s status LED blinks periodically.

Can Arduino be used in home automation?

Bluetooth module HC-05 is used for wireless communication between Arduino Uno and smartphone. HC-05 is a slave device and it can operates at power 3.6 to 6 volts….Bluetooth based Home Automation using Arduino.

Vcc Power(5V DC)
GND GND

How to make home automation using Arduino and Android?

Use 4 Channel 5V Relay Module. Hello, all. This project is all about building the most simplified home automation device using an Arduino and a Bluetooth module. This one is very easy to build and it can be built in a few hours. In my version which I’m explaining right here, I can control up to 4 home appliances using my Android smartphone.

How does Arduino work with Android and Bluetooth?

This code uses softwareserial.h to configure rx and tx pins in the Arduino. These rx and tx pins are connected to the tx and rx pins of the HC-05 Bluetooth module respectively. The Bluetooth module receives data from a paired Android device and triggers the relays with respect to the data received.

Is there an Android app for home automation?

The DIY Android Home Automation project comes with a free application called “DIY SmartHome”. This application controls the various appliances connected to your Arduino and relays.

How to set up home automation using Bluetooth?

Step 1: Open your device’s Bluetooth settings and search for new devices, make sure the LED on HC-05 module is blinking continuously (Pairing Mode). Step 2: Select HC-05 (or you’ll see an address ending with “C” as shown in the pictures). Step 3: Enter the PIN “1234” and press OK.
