A secure home automation prototype built on raspberry-pi

Abstract

With the development of sensors, wireless mobile communication, embedded system, the technologies of the Internet of Things have been widely used in SmartMeter, public security, intelligent building and so on. Because of its huge market prospects, the Internet of Things has been paid close attention by several governments all over the world. IoT facilitates the seamless integration of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we present an IoT prototype that is built on Raspberry Pi and uses SMTP (simple mail transfer protocol) for communication. Through this device, we have proposed a communication system that is less complex and more secure. It integrates with any "thing" and makes it electronically communicable. We give an implementation of the prototyping system and system validation.
