Abstract: This article clearly shows the implementation of a Bluetooth Home Automation Control System using an android application for remote switching of electrical appliances such as lighting, fan, garage, door motor, power sockets, water-pump motor or any other load in homes, offices or industries. The android application in the mobile phone acts as a modem for the control of home appliances.The system used an Arduinomicrocontroller for signal processing, a Bluetooth module for receiving data from android smart phone with a Bluetooth terminal/switching application and relays as its major switching component. The use of android mobile phones is simple and on the increase, the researcher deem it necessary to take advantage of its Bluetooth technology. By using an android mobile phone with the necessary application, we can switch ON/OFF home appliances within the Bluetooth signal range of approximately 100m conveniently without stress or risk of electric shock. The Bluetooth Home Automation Control System as presented in this paper is most suitable for everyone especially the elderly and disabled as it ease the stress of to and from movement for manual control of appliances within the home environment. Proper authentication/protection is implemented in this project to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the appliances at home.
