Internet of Things (IoT) conceptualizes the idea of remotely connecting and monitoring real world objects (things) through the Internet. When it comes to a house, this concept can be aptly incorporated to make it smarter, safer and automated. This project presents an approach to incorporate a two level biometric based security system in deploying Internet of Things (IoT) for smart home system, together with due consideration given to user convenience in operating the system using an android based application to monitor, control the electronic appliances in the house. The objective of the proposed system is to ensure that the access to enter the house and thereby render the services of certain automated electronic applications are only by the legitimate users, and not anyone else. By using biometrics it is possible to confirm or establish an individual’s identity. Biometrics has the potential to make authentication dramatically faster, easier and more secure than traditional passwords. This project adds mainly four features: security, safety, control and monitoring to home automation. This approach ensures to provide all the operations done smartly thus avoiding any manual interventions until necessary. This project differentiates itself from others as it provides a low cost-effective, compact and reliable secured home control and monitoring system with the aid of biometric fingerprint authentication and biometric face recognition systems for access and to control the equipment and devices remotely using an application over a portable Android device. The proposed system is implemented on atmega328 based arduino microcontroller board. Face recognition is achieved using matlab.
