Abstract: In today’s era of rapid technological progress, home automation has become an essential element of modern living, providing convenience, energy efficiency, and improved security. Smart home systems utilize embedded electronics, sensors, and automation to monitor environmental conditions and intelligently control household appliances. The proposed system is built around an Arduino Uno microcontroller, integrated with a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor, an ultrasonic sensor for motion detection, and an RTC module for time-based operations. These components work together to automate devices such as lights and fans based on real-time sensor readings. By responding automatically to environmental changes, the system minimizes energy wastage, enhances comfort, and improves safety within the home. Its design relies on low-cost, easily accessible components, making it affordable and adaptable for urban, rural, or institutional applications without requiring complex networking Overall.
