LOW COST HOME AUTOMATION SYSTEM USING ANDROID, RASPBERRY PI AND ARDUINO TO SEND DATA USING SOCKET PROGRAMMING AND FCM: THE CASE STUDY OF PET CARE SYSTEM VIA THE INTERNET
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objective of this research is to develop low cost home automation system by using android, Raspberry Pi and Arduino. The system will send data by using socket programming and FCM: the case study of pet care system via the internet. This system can send alerts to android application via the internet when pet’s food and water is not enough. Moreover, the user can use android application to control the system of pet’s feeding, providing water and pet monitoring through the internet as well. This application can record the videos and snap photos of pet. The user can control the camera panning. The system design is based on the principle of embedded system which is composed of hardware are as follow: 1) Raspberry Pi is used as a controller. 2) Camera is used to snap photos or record a videos. 3) Arduino board is used to send the receive value from the moisture sensor to the controller. 4) Soil moisture sensor. 5) Infrared LED is used to send/receive infrared for measuring the amount of food. 6) Servo motor is used for camera panning 7) Regulator is used to adjust the voltage. 8) Relay. Moreover, the system design is composed of software are as follow: 1) FCM or firebase cloud messaging is used to send the information alerts through an android application. 2) Python programming language is used to developed to Raspberry Pi 3) Android studio is used to develop an android application. 4) Arduino IDE is used to develop software for control Arduino. 5) MJPG Streamer is used for send photos and videos in web browser. 6) Web server is used to send data payload to FCM. The results is found that 1) The measurement of moisture and the amount of food has 100% accuracy. 2) The alert system has 100% accuracy. 3) The system of pet’s feeding, providing water and pet monitoring has 100% accuracy. 4) The camera panning has 100% accuracy. However, the limitation of this system is found that the effectiveness of pet monitoring depends on internet service providers in each location and long distance between the system and android application.
