Introduction
• Smart home is a setup that uses information technology to

monitor the environment, control the electric appliance and
communicates with the outer world.
• This system is based on LabVIEW software and can act as a

security guard of the home. The system can monitor the
temperature, humidity, lighting, fire & burglar alarm, gas
density of the house and have infrared sensor to guarantee the
family security.
Abstract
• This project is solely based on the IOT application of Smart
Home.
• This is the day and age of smart devices. Companies are looking
to transform the way humans interact with the environment. So
digital technologies such as IOT is gaining popularity across the
globe.
• Trying to implement a model which uses less hardware

components and focusses more on the implementation using
software. Also trying to implement this model without using a
simulation software such as MATLAB.
Objective
The main objective of this project is to implement 5 subsystems namely:
• Internal Lighting System

• External Lighting System
• Burglar Alarm
• Temperature
• Smoke Detector
The other main objective is to monitor the sensor data on the front panel of
LabVIEW.
LabVIEW
• The main purpose of using LabVIEW is it gives accurate and
precise desired values.
• And the other main advantage is the lack of code blocks. If

anyone is interested in working with other simulation softwares
such as MATLAB for monitoring the sensor data, then they are
expected to code in MATLAB.
• But with the help of LabVIEW, they will be able to incorporate

graphical programming technique and monitor the sensor data
continuously.
LabVIEW
• The whole project has been initially designed using my rio for
interfacing the sensors with LabVIEW. But due to cost
constraints and my rio being too expensive for common use, we
have decided to use Arduino and wireless transmission RF link
for interfacing the sensors.
• Arduino UNO has been used to gather input via sensors and
process this input into a set of actions.
• We have used ZigBee for the wireless transmission of the

sensor data.
Hardware And Software
Requirements
• LabVIEW software
• Arduino UNO Board
• LM35 sensor (temperature)
• PIR sensor (Burglar and lighting)
• MQ2 sensor (smoke detector)
• LDR sensor (external lighting)
• ZigBee transmitter and receiver modules
• Relay unit
Block Diagram
Working
• The Home side of the model comprises of all the sensor units
connected to the Arduino. And it gathers input via the sensors
and process this input into a set of actions.
• This sensor data is sent to the Control side using a pair of

ZigBee modules. The transmission range of ZigBee is unto 100
metres.
• On the Control side front, we are monitoring the sensor data

continuously. We can control the switching on and off actions
of the external and internal lighting systems.
LM35 Sensor
• LM35 is a basic temperature sensor that can be used for
experimental purpose.It gives the readings in centigrade(degree
Celsius)since its output voltage is linearly proportional to
temperature.
LM35 Sensor
• One of the most important characteristic of LM35 is that it

draws just 60 microamps from its supply and acquires a low
self-heating capacity.
• LM35 shows high voltage values than thermocouples and may

not need that the output voltage is amplified.
PIR Sensor
• A PIR or a Passive Infrared Sensor can be used to detect presence of
human beings in its proximity.
• A PIR sensor detects the infrared light radiated by a warm object. It

consists of pyro electric sensors which introduce changes in their
temperature (due to incident infrared radiation) into electric signal.
• The range of PIR sensor ranges from 5 metres to 12 metres. This sensor is
directly connected to the buzzer.
• When the sensor detects any object or a human presence within the range,
then the sensor sends a high to low signal to the buzzer.
MQ2 Sensor
• MQ2 gas sensor is an electronic sensor used for sensing the
concentration of gases in the air such as LPG, propane, methane,
hydrogen, alcohol, smoke and carbon monoxide.
• MQ2 gas sensor is also known as chemiuresistor. It contains a

sensing material whose resistance changes when it comes in
contact with the gas. This change in the value of resistance is used
for the detection of gas.
• This sensor is directly connected to the exhaust fan. When this

sensor detects smoke within its range of operation, it sends a high
to low signal to the exhaust fan.

Result
Summary
• LabVIEW continuously monitors the sensor data. This can be

observed from the front panel. We can also control the
switching ON and OFF operation of the LED via LabVIEW.
• Date and Time are also indicated on the front panel. All the
components are working perfectly fine and we have achieved
the desired results.
