ABSTRACT
Efficient power management is one of the major problems that exist in the present world. To solve this problem, an effective mechanism to control and manage power in electrical devices is necessary. One such mechanism is to control the devices within our home with the help of wireless zigbee and android technology presented in this paper. Here the system is an integration of hardware and software. With this system, we will be able to control the electric devices in our home from outside home using an android phone. The android phone works as a remote control device that performs the switch ON and switch OFF function of devices. The interfacing of embedded system and android phone is done through zigbee module. The paper focuses on the design and implementation of the control system that controls the electric devices. Here a voice input to perform the required operation is given to the android speech recognition page; it is converted to text and is updated in the server database. From the server database the values are retrieved by the microcontroller via zigbee and it operates the logic to switch ON or switch OFF the device. The microcontroller will be programmed to calculate the power consumption by the electrical devices connected to the system and the calculated power is displayed in the android phone. With the system it is also possible to view the energy meter reading in the android phone and as a result power management can be done efficiently.
