Abstract :

Home automation has become an important application of the Internet of Things (IoT), enabling smart control and monitoring of household devices. This project presents the design and implementation of a Home Automation System using IoT and Amazon Web Services (AWS). The system is developed using the ESP8266 Wi-Fi module as the core controller. Various sensors such as IR sensor, fire sensor, and LDR sensor are used to monitor environmental and security conditions. Appliances like LEDs and motors are controlled remotely through cloud-based commands. AWS provides a reliable and scalable cloud platform for data processing, storage, and device communication. The system allows users to monitor and control home appliances from anywhere using the internet. Fire detection ensures safety by generating alerts during emergency situations. Light automation using an LDR sensor improves energy efficiency. The proposed system is cost-effective, secure, and easy to deploy. This project demonstrates the
