IoT based Autonomous Home Assistant using Computer Vision

Abstract

Robotics and Automation are popular subjects in recent years. Most of the modern technologies are integrated with automation. It makes our life more easier and comfortable in our daily activities. With the concept of automation we build a home assistant. With the help of a camera, sensors, actuators, motors we build a system that can help us in our dayto-day life. This is an IoT based autonomous system that can move freely and give different suggestions and results. Using different Application Programming Interfaces our system can provide us with different recommendations. For developing this home assistant we use an android device, using the camera of the android device our robot can move freely. Actuators and motors are getting data from android devices. Our AI also can detect humans and can follow them perfectly. It can follow orders smartly. For controlling robots and other components it uses an Arduino UNO microcontroller. This device used the HC-06 bluetooth module to communicate between android smartphone and Arduino UNO. Our smart assistant can be accessible for all kinds of users. It has a user-friendly interface and is also cost-friendly. We develop this as a way that in future we can add more features in it.
