IoT enabled Smart Switch With user-friendly Electrical Interfacing

The aim is to develop IoT enabled smart switch with user – friendly electrical interfacing system using IoT-enabled devices. Because technology is evolving at a faster rate, smarter appliances in homes are becoming more necessary. Traditional switches are gradually giving way to integrated control systems with remote-controlled virtual switches in modern homes. Currently, traditional physical switches situated around the home make it difficult for the user to go close to the gadgets in order to activate them. This becomes even more difficult for the aged and physically crippled to do so. This proposed Smart Switch finds an alternative for conventional switches and also it gives a smarter solution for power consumption. To achieve this, an IoT-enabled device is programmed and interfaced to the Solid-State Relay to control the appliances remotely from anywhere in this world. A cloud platform called Sinric Pro is integrated with this system which provides a consolidated dashboard of all the appliances whichever is connected to the cloud in real-time. The proposed switch is designed with Dynamic – Wifi Configuration (AP / STA) to avoid hardcore Programming every time whenever SSID/PASSWORD is changed. In addition, Zero-Line Detector included updating the AC line (Power Failure) Status over the cloud. This system operates in both Manual / Automatic modes. This IoT-enabled smart switch provides user–friendly electrical interfacing to transfer from conventional control systems.
