Abstract

In recent years, the demand for smart home systems has increased due to the need for improved security, comfort, and energy efficiency. Many household activities, such as door access control, lighting management, gas leak detection, and clothes drying, are still performed manually, which may lead to safety risks and operational inefficiencies. This study presents the design and testing of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based smart home automation systems using an ESP32 microcontroller integrated with ultrasonic, LDR, MQ-2 gas, and rain sensors. The system is designed to automatically respond to real-time environmental conditions and provide remote monitoring and control through a web-based interface. Experimental results indicate that the rain sensor effectively controls the clothesline mechanism, where the servo motor closes the clothesline at analog sensor output values between 0 and 2499 under wet conditions and opens it at values equal to or above 3200 in dry conditions. The ultrasonic sensor successfully controls automatic door operation at distances of 15 cm or less, while the MQ-2 sensor reliably detects hazardous gas levels and activates an alarm system. In addition, the LDR sensor enables efficient lighting control based on ambient light intensity. The results demonstrate that the proposed system operates reliably and contributes to improved safety, convenience, and efficiency in IoT-based smart home applications.
