Abstract

In this study, we reported the design and development of an integratedplatform for monitoring and controlling of household appliances using internetworking technologies associated with factors of ZigBee wireless sensor network. The intelligent internetworking architectural mastery plus the reliable measurements associated with household sensors variables are comprehended. The developed system is a combination of distributed smart sensing systems and a data system for aggregation and exploration of fused data. Benefits associated with the developed system are in effective realization of household appliances monitoring variables through Internet of Things. The robustness of the system in executing multiple tasks for long durations provides the longitudinal assessment behavior of the inhabitant. The prototype has been tested in the actual home environment and the results are viewed through real-time graphical data analysis representation.
