Home Automation Using Chatbot and Voice Assistant

Abstract

In a world with ever increasing needs for comfort, human race is relying more and more on technological advancements to find solutions to their problems. Home Automation Systems have become a go-to arena in the recent years. In the following paper, we propose a Home Automation system that uses a wholesome blending of some technologies like Internet of Things, Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. The prime feature of this system is that, it provides two modes of communication to the user : Text and Voice. The text input from the user will be given via a Chatbot Application and the voice input from the user will be given via a voice assistant. The input will undergo Natural Language Processing to find the action that the user wants the system to perform. The IoT component, Raspberry Pi would perform the actuations in the form of switching On or Off of Lights and Fans of a room in the house.
