INTRODUCTION:
 
The main objective of this project is to develop a home automation system using an MSP430 board
with Bluetooth being remotely controlled by an Android OS smartphone.

As technology is advancing so houses are also getting smarter. Modern houses are gradually shifting
from conventional switches to the centralized control system, involving remote controlled switches.
Presently, conventional wall switches located in different parts of the house makes it difficult for the
user to go near them to operate.

Even more, it becomes more difficult for the elderly or physically handicapped people to do so.
Remote controlled home automation system provides a most modern solution with smartphones.

 LITERATURE
SURVEY :
National Manufacturing Policy will lead to creation of national
investment and manufacturing zones along with increasing
manufacturing activity in the automation sector that will boost
the demand for automation products

Competitiveness of India’s manufacturing sector is critical for

sustaining the growth of the Indian economy. Thus, to develop
the manufacturing sector further, the Government has
announced the National Manufacturing Policy, which aims at
increasing the share of manufacturing in GDP to 25 per cent by
2022, from the current level of 15 per cent
 Global opportunities :

 Challenges in this regard would include: acceptance of domestic (assembled) automation products;
lack of relevant semi-conductor/ electronic infrastructure setup; adherence to global regulations;
uncertainty in the global economy.

• End-user perspective: Opportunities here would comprise strict regulatory framework that
facilitates greater usage of automation systems and ultra mega power plants (UMPP) that will
increase the opportunities for automation systems.
Overall strategic conclusion :

The increasing population coupled with rising disposable incomes has resulted in tremendous rise in
domestic demand. The core sectors of power, oil and gas, cement, infrastructure, and metals, among others
continue to scale up to meet the burgeoning domestic demand. While the looming economic recession has
introduced uncertainty in the investment climate, the Government of India is expected to go ahead with its
investment plans in the core sectors to ensure balanced supply-demand. While free trade agreements and
economic partnerships will intensify competition, the overall manufacturing climate and relevant
Government/private initiatives are expected to augur well for the automation industry in the next few years.

 The SIM900A modem has a SIM900A GSM chip and RS232 interface while enables
easy connection with the computer or laptop using the USB to the Serial
connector or to the
 micro-controller using the RS232 to TTL converter. Once you connect the SIM900A
modem using the USB to RS232 connector, you need to find the correct COM port
from the Device Manager of the USB to Serial Adapter.
 Then you can open Putty or any other terminal software and open a connection to
that COM port at 9600 baud rate, which is the default baud rate of this modem

 Software Requirement:
Energia IDE:
 
 A program for MSP430G2553 may be written in any programming language for a compiler that produces binary machine code for
the target processor. TEXAS provides a development environment for their microcontrollers, TI Studio and the newer TI Studio.

 The MSP430G2553 project provides the MSP430G2553 integrated development environment (IDE), which is a cross-platform
application written in the programming language Java. It originated from the IDE for the languages Processing and Wiring. It
includes a code editor with features such as text cutting and pasting, searching and replacing text, automatic indenting, brace
matching, and syntax highlighting, and provides simple one- click mechanisms to compile and upload programs to an MSP430G2553
board. It also contains a message area, a text console, a toolbar with buttons for common functions and a hierarchy of operation
menus.

 The MSP430G2553 IDE supports the languages C and C++ using special rules of code structuring. The MSP430G2553 supplies a
software library from the Wiring project, which provides many common input and output procedures. User-written code only
requires two basic functions, for starting the sketch and the main program loop, that are compiled and linked with a program stub
main() into an executable cyclic executive program with the GNU tool chain, also included with the IDE distribution. The
ENERGIA IDE employs the program to convert the executable code into a text file in hexadecimal encoding that is loaded into the
MSP430G2553 board by a loader program in the board's firmware.
