Distance Measurement of ESP8266 for Control and Monitoring in Smart Home Application
Daftar Isi:
- Along with the growth of Internet of Things (IoT) projects, the development of smart home application was also incrementally raised. The research trends tended to implement the smart home application for monitoring the house hold devices through automation and also for metering the power usage independently. Therefore, the proposed research which was developed in this paper focused for building a smart home application which could control and monitor based on the power usage of the electronic household devices that serially connected to the sensor node. This paper also proposed a combination of MQTT as the messaging protocol for conserving the bandwidth usage. In term of the project’s analysis, the main aspect was directed to investigate the feasibility of ESP8266 as the transmission module in our application. The developed system could successfully monitor the power usage (in Watt and Ampere) and perform the specified action from the client node. The research result also concluded that the ESP8266 was feasible for this kind of project.
