Automação residencial com internet das coisas: um estudo de caso

Abstract

Technologies and Automated processes that were once only considered in science fiction are now a reality. It is already possible to connect home devices by clapping hands, or by voice commands. A person can control the cameras in his home, using his cell phone, on the other side of the world. With a simple touch of a button on a smartphone app, you can control countless pieces of equipment in a home. In view of this scenario, the proposal of the work focused on developing a prototype used as a tool to control home appliances equipment in an automated way. Such control can be carried out locally and / or remotely using low cost electronic components. In general, the objective of the work is to present a prototype of home automation with a focus on load control to turn on / off equipment locally and / or remotely. Specifically, it is intended to: i) review some theoretical and practical concepts on home automation; ii) present the possibility of using home automation as an element to increase efficiency in the use of domestic equipment; and, iii) publicizing home automation and its advantages to consumers / users through work. The development of the work and the prototype achieved the objectives and presented themselves as a great opportunity for students of the Systems for Internet course to have access to automation knowledge, developing prototypes, as in the present case. This is also relevant since in none of the curricular components of the course the practical concepts of electronics, automation and Internet of Things are studied. It was possible to observe that the training in web page development, associated with automation and Internet of Things, can generate numerous products / artifacts.
