INTRODUCTION: This is a device to control home appliances like TV, fan through a remote control normally a TV remote. This project based on the proper transmission and reception of infra red wave and uses them as a pulse to activate the output pin of an IC. This circuit made help to the disabled persons who couldnt make a walk to turn off and on to home appliances. This circuit uses a remote usually a TV remote, a IR receiver to receive a ir signal, a transistor to amplify the input signal to appropriate level, a relay to connect or disconnect the power supply from the load.
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
COMPONENTS REQUIRED: (A) IC = CD4017 (B) Resistors: R1 = 220k, R2 = 330R, R3 = 1k, R4 = 330R, R5 = 47K (C) Capacitors: C1 = 100uf (16v), C2 = 0.1uf, (D) Transistors: T1 = BC558, T2 = BC 548, (E) TV Remote (F) IR Receiver = TSOP 1738 (G) LED LED1 = Red, LED2 = Green (H) Relay =100R, C/O type (I) Power Supply 5 Vdc, 220Vac (J) Load = Bulb
WORKING: Connect this circuit to any of your home appliances (lamp, fan, radio, etc) to make the appliance turn on/off from a TV, VCD or DVD remote control. The circuit can be activated from up to 10 meters. The 38 kHz infrared (IR) rays generated by the remote control are received by IR receiver module TSOP1738 of the circuit. Pin 1 of TSOP1738 is connected to ground, pin 2 is connected to the power supply through resistor R5 and the output is taken from pin 3. The output signal is amplified by transistor T1 (BC558). The amplified signal is fed to clock pin 14 of decade counter IC CD4017 (IC1). Pin 8 of IC1 is grounded, pin 16 is connected to Vcc and pin 3 is connected to LED1 (red), which glows to indicate that the appliance is off. FUTURE PERSPECTIVES:
Another candidate solution to this remote communication problem is the use of mobile Telephony. Mobile telephony offers a wide range of communication services like voice and data transfer through SMS and other enhanced data transfer protocols like GPRS, EDGE at a Relatively low price and at a wide variety of places on the earth. On the other hand, the security is better achieved by the use of strict traffic control. We adhered to this method of remote controlling of home appliances because of its unparallel availability and modest security at the affordable price. Looking at the devised solution, one keen reader would readily point that, the computer is a bit of overhead. Computer is a device with enormous capability and our application fails to make most of it. We tried to replace the computer with a micro-controller. A micro-controller is a small IC with a micro-processor, memory and IO support, which is comparatively very cheap and requires fewer resources. Micro-controllers come with built-in support for USB and Bluetooth connectivity with traditional serial ports and also programming support for these ports. Microcontrollers come with custom SDKs and can be used to serve our goal with reduced efforts. We studied theoretically with micro-controllers and it seemed possible to be implemented in reality. Given enough time and wise thinking, one can proceed with this application and move the computer part to the micro-controller. This modification will highly add value to this project by expanding its usability to a great extent. This can create a whole new dimension of remote controlling it take the control as near as to ones palm for always and everywhere. Moreover by deploying wireless sensors inside the home smart home can be made smarter. Recent works on smart home is governed by the concepts of wireless sensors. Remote systems can be controlled in a more flexible ways by integrating wireless sensors to the system.
CONCLUSION: Remote control for home appliances circuit helps to the disabled/handicapped persons who couldnt make a walk to turn off and on to home appliances. It uses a remote usually a TV remote, a IR receiver to receive a IR signal, a transistor to amplify the input signal to appropriate level, a relay to connect or disconnect the power supply from the load.
