Comprehensive Study on the Role of IoT in Intelligent Home Automation Systems

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) most recently stood as an essential pillar of intelligent home automation systems with respects to technology through connectivity, real-time monitoring, and self- governing decisions through a network of connected smart devices. The paper presented here offers a thorough summary of the state of the art and architecture and applications of IoT in smart homes while paying special attention to how sensors, actuators, cloud platforms, and artificial intelligence combine to create an elevated level of increased residential comfort, security, and energy performance. We also elaborate on significant technology frameworks and applications, and highlight important challenges such as interoperability, data privacy, and cyber security. We discuss the emerging trends and best practices, and future considerations based on our findings based on analysis.
