摘要：With the increasing development of modern technology and Smartphone, smart way of living has turned out to be a major part in the present era of human life. Due to rapid growth in Technology, Bluetooth has brought a revolutionary change. Bluetooth technology, which aims to exchange data wirelessly within a range of short distance by providing a necessary platform to create convenience and controllability. Being wireless, it has wide range of applications. In this paper we presented one of its day to day application i.e.., Home automation, which is controlled by using Android Smart Phone. A Bluetooth module (HC-05) is used to control the home appliances that are connected to FPGA board. The home appliances that we need to control are connected to the Input / Output ports of the FPGA board and communication is established between the FPGA board and Bluetooth device using Serial Communication. Home automation not only helps to reduce human efforts but is also energy efficient and time saving. The main objective of home automation is to help handicapped and old aged people that will enable them to control home appliances and alert them in some immediate situations.
