- Dynamic Cycle Switching:
- The system intelligently toggles between day and night cycles based on the PLC's internal time.
- Triggers corresponding actions such as changing lights and adjusting temperature settings.
- Flexible Lighting Management:
- Allows control over the state of lights in different rooms.
- Takes into account master light switches and individual room light switches.
- Adapts lighting conditions based on the time of day and user preferences.
- Passkey Security:
- Implements a passkey system for enhanced security.
- Differentiates between a master passkey and other passkeys.
- Controls the opening of outside doors based on security conditions.
- Smart Temperature Adjustment:
- Dynamically adjusts indoor and outdoor temperatures based on the day-night cycle.
- Implements heating or cooling systems to maintain a comfortable environment.
- Ensures energy efficiency by regulating temperature according to desired levels.
- Randomness Integration:
- Utilizes a Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) to introduce randomness into system behavior.
- Enhances the system's adaptability and realism by simulating unpredictable events.
- Overall System Coordination:
- Orchestrates the entire home automation system through a main program (
prgMain). - Manages the flow of the system, including temperature changes, light controls, and security checks.
- Implements a switch-case structure for handling different states and functionalities.
- Ensures the effective and coordinated operation of various components.
- Orchestrates the entire home automation system through a main program (
- Visual Alert System:
- Incorporates a blinking alarm system to visually indicate specific conditions.
- Enhances user awareness of critical events, such as security alarms.
The home automation system aims to provide a seamless and intelligent living environment. It automates lighting, temperature regulation, and security features, taking into account dynamic day-night cycles. The system's adaptability and responsiveness contribute to a more comfortable, secure, and energy-efficient home. The integration of a PRNG adds an element of unpredictability, making the system realistic and versatile. Overall, the project demonstrates the potential of automation in improving the quality of life within a home setting.
