Abstract :
The concept of a smart home integrates
wireless electronic systems that connect household devices
to a central interface, enabling remote control via
smartphones or wall panels through Wi-Fi networks. This
paper explores the core components of smart homes,
including smart devices such as speakers, thermostats,
lighting, and security systems, as well as the role of mobile
applications in managing these devices. The paper
discusses the various applications of smart homes, from
home automation and security monitoring to energy
management and health-focused initiatives. Additionally,
it evaluates the pros and cons of smart home technology,
highlighting benefits such as enhanced security, energy
efficiency, and user convenience, while also addressing
challenges related to cost, complexity, and cybersecurity
risks. The paper concludes by emphasizing the
transformative potential of smart homes in modern living,
while recognizing the need for strategic approaches to
mitigate associated challenges.
