Introduction: ARDUINO BLUETOOTH HOME CONTROL(ANDROID AND GOOGLE APP INVENTOR)
IN THE FOLLOWING PROJECT WE ARE GOING TO MAKE A WIRELESS BASED HOME AUTOMATION SYSTEM FROM WHICH WE CAN CONTROLL THE HOME APPLIANCES THROUGH OUR ANDROID DEVICE
Step 1: WATCH THE VIDEO
Step 2: THINGS NEEDED
To make the arduino home automation you need the following things
1.ARDUINO UNO OR ANY ARDUINO BOARD
2.BLUETOOTH MODULE(HC-06 OR HC-05)
3.ANDROID DEVICE
4.COPPER DOT PCB
5.RESISTOR(1K,2K)
6.LED(2 OR 3)
7.JUMPER WIRES
8.ARDUINO IDE
Step 3: BLUETOOTH MODULE CIRCUIT
From the following circuit diagram of the bluetooth module we are going to to create a bluetooth breakout for the hc06 or hc05
as you can see in the bluetooth breakout there is a voltage divider at the rx pin of bluetooth breakout
the work of voltage divider here is that the rx pin of the bluetooth module can not recieve 5v it needs only 3.3v at that pin so we will divide the voltage at that pin using the voltage divider by using a 1k ohm and a 2k ohm resistor
the connection are
ARDUINO UNOBLUETOOTH MODULE
+5V--------------------------->+5V
GND-------------------------->GND
RX----------------------------->TX
TX----------------------------->RX(with voltage divider)
Step 4: ARDUINO CONNECTIONS
The wiring of the arduino is a quiet simple you could choose any pins on the arduino pins
i am using the pins on the arduino as the given
ARDUINO PINS
13 PIN-------->LED
12 PIN-------->LED
wiring part is done see that simple it is
next step is programming
Step 5: ARDUINO CODE
IN THIS SECTION WE ARE GOING TO UPLOAD THE FOLLOWING CODE DIRECTLY TO THE ARDUINO USING THE ARDUINO IDE
OPEN THE FOLLOWING FILE COMPILE AND AND THEN UPLOAD USING THE ARDUINO IDE
Step 6: ANDROID APP(FOR TESTING)
YOU NEED TO DOWNLOAD THE FOLLOWING ANDROID APP FOR THE TESTING THE CODE
"BLUETOOTH TERMINAL"
THIS APP IS AVAILABLE IN THE APP STORE OR THE PLAY STORE
TO CREATE YOUR OWN ANDROID APP FOLLOW THE NEXT STEP CAREFULLY
Step 7: CREATING YOUR ANDROID APP TO CONTROL THE CODE(ANDROID)
IN THIS SECTION WE ARE GOING TO CREATE OUR OWN ANDROID APP
TO CREATE THE ANDROID APP WE NEED A GOOGLE ACCOUNT and thats it!!!
follow the instruction as in the part two of the video series
after watching the following video you have got the basic knowledge about the app creation
