Abstract This research work has been proposed and designed keeping many factors in the mind like easy implementation, energy saving, and security features. The research work streamlined the Home Automation System so that electrical appliances and devices like (Fans, bulbs/lights, door activation etc.) in the house can be monitored or controlled globally by a single touch of a user using android application in a very cost-effective manner. The system design is comprised of raspberry pi, sensors, wireless and android application for controlling processes. The proposed research is a novel integration of hardware and software technology to save the energy. Several approaches like power line communication, zigbee, Z wave, general packet radio service (GPRS), Bluetooth and wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) have been studied and implemented to achieve the accuracy and efficiency in home energy management system. The proposed cost-effective solution showed that the equipment execution of a multiple structure control framework for house digitalization worked better and consolidated both equipment and programming advancements. The proposed research has been tested. Results proved that it worked better than other existing approaches in a very costeffective manner. It has been observed that approximate 30% energy consumption can be saved by using the proposed research.
