ABSTRACT
This project demonstrates a smart home automation system integrating Arduino IoT Cloud,
ESP8266, and Google Home for voice-controlled and remote access functionalities. It allows
users to monitor and control home appliances such as lights, fans, and sockets through their
smartphone and voice commands using Google Assistant.

By connecting ESP8266 NodeMCU to the Arduino IoT Cloud, real-time data updates and
control become seamless. The integration with Google Home further enhances user
convenience by providing hands-free operations. This system contributes to energy
efficiency, security, and comfort for smart living.
CHAPTER 01

INTRODUCTION
Smart homes use IoT and automation to control devices like lights, fans, and appliances
remotely through the internet. This project focuses on building a smart home using
ESP8266 NodeMCU, Arduino IoT Cloud, and Google Home. The integration allows voice
control and real-time monitoring using a smartphone or voice assistant.

The system is scalable and provides energy efficiency, security, and comfort. Users can
automate schedules, receive status feedback, and interact with devices from anywhere.
With the growing need for smart environments, this project presents a low-cost yet robust
solution for modern homes.

OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT

- Design a cost-effective smart home automation system.


- Interface ESP8266 NodeMCU with Arduino IoT Cloud for real-time device control.
- Integrate Google Home for voice-based commands.
- Enable remote access and monitoring via smartphone.
- Ensure energy efficiency and user convenience.
CHAPTER 02

BLOCK DIAGRAM

Home

The system uses ESP8266 NodeMCU as the main controller. It connects to Wi-Fi and
communicates with Arduino IoT Cloud. Devices like lights and fans are connected through
relay modules. Users interact through the Arduino IoT Cloud dashboard or via Google
Home.

When a user gives a voice command to Google Assistant, it updates the cloud variables,
which are read by the ESP8266 to control the respective devices. Feedback is also available
on the cloud, ensuring status updates are synchronized.
CHAPTER 03

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM
Fig 3.1: Circuit Diagram of Smart Home System

The circuit includes ESP8266 NodeMCU connected to a 4-channel relay module. Each relay
controls one appliance (e.g., bulb, fan). The NodeMCU is powered through a 5V adapter.
GPIO pins of the NodeMCU are used to control the relays based on cloud commands.

The circuit ensures safe switching using opto-isolated relays and provides clear signal
isolation between the microcontroller and AC devices.
CHAPTER 04

HARDWARE DETAILS

1. **ESP8266 NodeMCU**: A Wi-Fi-enabled microcontroller used to connect devices to the


internet and Arduino IoT Cloud. It has digital I/O pins and built-in Wi-Fi.

2. **Relay Module**: A 4-channel relay module is used to control high voltage AC appliances
like fans, lights, etc.

3. **Bulbs/Fans/Sockets**: These are the electrical appliances that are automated.

4. **Power Adapter (5V)**: Supplies power to the ESP8266 and relay module.

5. **Jumper Wires & Breadboard**: Used for circuit connections and prototyping.

SOFTWARE DETAILS

1. **Arduino IDE**: Used to write and upload code to the ESP8266 NodeMCU.

2. **Arduino IoT Cloud**: Cloud platform where variables and device status are managed.
Provides dashboard for user control and monitoring.

3. **Google Home App**: Used for setting up voice commands and linking with Arduino IoT
Cloud via webhooks/IFTTT.

4. **IFTTT (If This Then That)**: Used to bridge Google Assistant with Arduino IoT Cloud
actions using Webhooks.
