Home Automation Using Cloud Network and Mobile Devices

This project presents a proposal for home automation using voice via Google Assistant. Home automation or domotics a term for home automation coined by Jim Hill has been evolving drastically. We saw many home automation technologies introduced over these years from ZigBee automation to Amazon Echo, Google Home and Home from Apple. It has become a craze these days. Google Home price is around 150 (USD) with an additional cost of the devices to be connected to, the total cost of the system reaches over 250 (USD). Apple Home Kit too is pretty more expensive, over 100 (USD) more than the Google Home just for a basic setup. Philips Hue, a smart light which is controlled by the Google Assistant, Amazon Echo and Siri, voice assistant by Apple is priced around 145 (USD). Similarly, Belikins Wemo light is priced around 44 (USD) per unit and this can be controlled both by Siri and Google Assistant
