Online Automatic Switch of Appliances

Abstract

The ONLINE AUTOMATIC SWITCH OF APPLIANCES enhances the traditional way of plugging and unplugging of appliances in certain location where the user can access the appliances online. It is composed of a desktop or laptop computer- that were used by the user in accessing the project, relay switches- which were used to convert small amount of current to trigger a large amount of current, router or modem - which were used to transfer internet signals, Arduino board- which were used to connect the switch to the server and the extension cord with sockets as the primary outlet. This study aimed to a better way to turn on or turn off the appliances. The Prototyping method served as the paradigm of the study.

The project yielded from different findings, for the development and completion.  The study revealed that the project is much better compared to the traditional way of plugging and unplugging of appliances. With the proper instruction, guidance and setting up the project, two hundred sixty four respondents were selected to evaluate the project.
