Smart Home

Smart Home is an IoT application that enables its users to control various home appliances. Smart Home combines technology and services to facilitate your better living quality, enhanced security and energy efficiency through IoT experience. Elements of a Smart Home Automation system includes networking of home appliances and a Smartphone app. Home appliances networking is done by using BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). Smart Gateway works as the local broker and communicates with the app through MQTT protocol.
