Propuesta tecnológica para el control de un sistema de iluminación residencial

Abstract

The technological breakthrough in process automation and electronic components has allowed households to have a higher level of comfort and security. This article describes a domotics application for the control and supervision of a lighting system of a 54 m2 apartment’s living room, bedroom and kitchen. This was achieved through the integration of compatible sensors into the Arduino IDE: the motion sensor PIR HC-SR501 and the light intensity sensor BH-1750 which are controlled through the NodeMcu board. The latter communicates via Wi-Fi to a mobile phone through an app developed in the APP inventor platform. It allows the user to execute ON/OFF control, intensity control (dimer), motion control of people, lighting-based control or automatic mode and programmed control.
