Abstract

Physically challenged people find difficulty in switching ON/OFF their home loads such as light, fanetc., and they require an attendee to do. This smart home automation will help the handicappedpatients and elderly people with locomotion problem.They can have control over the appliancesfrom anywhere in the house. This application is capable of tracking the location of a person throughGPS. Moreover, this device willdetect if a person has fallen down and inform his/her familymembers through mobile device, so that they can get help in time.
