Abstract

Today, the internet has become an indispensable part of human life. With our social media, banking transactions, news, shopping, e-government and many more applications, we have reached higher level in our standard of living. This rapid development of technology provides convenience in different areas of our lives every day. Many devices such as TVs, refrigerators, washing machines we use in daily life are able to communicate with each other by becoming smart thanks to the Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine to Machine (M2M) technologies. In recent days we have become more and more aware of the concepts of smart city such as smart home, transportation, health, education, energy and smart environment. One of these concepts, "smart home" applications undoubtedly attracts the most demanded applications individually. In this study, a smart home application including conditioning and lighting controls is implemented using NodeMCU embedded system microcontroller, Arduino Pro Mini and Blynk iOS/Android interface developer.
