Smart lighting: solução para controle de lâmpadas em smart homes

Abstract

The people live today in a time where network and connections has increasingly became part of their daily lives, so that they get to be connected all the time, both to other people and devices. The technology advances have expanded to the most diverse areas, such as smart houses, part of a even larger area called Internet of Things. With a wide variety of interconnected sensors and devices, a user, or even a sensor itself, can send a signal to control several ”things”. One of the study areas that comes from the intelligent house idea is called Smart Lighting, that is, the control of lights and lamps through the network. Among the equipment used nowadays, most of them have a high cost due to labor required for installation and are physically unviable. This work presents a solution to control lamps via network using an Arduino microcontroller as a server and a Web Service responsible for working with the sent and received data, being essentially a system of easy installation and configuration.
