Home automation aims at operating the home electrical systems from the comfort of your couch. Our project aims at collaborating technologies like IOT with embedded systems to improve user-friendliness, ease of access and better data management. It aims at reducing human labor, eradicating human errors, make the process automatic and portable. We have developed a powerful home automation system by using 2 way switches and ESP 8266 microcontroller and relay module. Relay module acts as a switch and the two way switch combines to give the successful operation. An android application is used to actuate the relay module.
