ABSTRACT
The project aims in designing a system which makes operating of electrical appliances in home through Android mobile phone possible. The controlling of electrical appliances is done wirelessly through Android smart phone using the Bluetooth feature present in it. Here in this project the Android smart phone is used as a remote control for operating the electrical appliances.

Conceived initially by Ericsson, before being adopted by a myriad of other companies, Bluetooth is a standard for a small radio chip to be plugged into computers, printers, mobile phones, etc. A Bluetooth chip is designed to replace cables by taking the information normally carried by the cable, and transmitting it at a special frequency to a receiver Bluetooth chip, which will then give the information received to the computer, phone whatever.

It is one of real time applications in industry Now a days all electrical devices in Industry controlled by manually, But in industry so many electrical devices is there. To control all electrical devices we need lot of MAN POWER if manpower increases Maintenance cost also increases; this is one of the drawbacks of industry, So to avoid such type of drawback we should need some WIRELESS controlling systems, One of wireless communication system is Bluetooth communication system.

Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key applications. Android boasts a healthy array of connectivity options, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and wireless data over a cellular connection (for example, GPRS, EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution), and 3G). Android provides access to a wide range of useful libraries and tools that can be used to build rich applications. In addition, Android includes a full set of tools that have been built from the ground up alongside the platform providing developers with high productivity and deep insight into their applications.

That is why we have selected Bluetooth, This is not only used in industry but also used in Domestic Purpose as home appliances controlling using Bluetooth remote, some persons who are unable to walk to switch board such type of persons need this type of project and also Who are old persons, why because you can switch ON/OFF load with remote, without moving away from your place.

Bluetooth is an open standard specification for a radio frequency (RF)-based, short-range connectivity technology that promises to change the face of computing and wireless communication. It is designed to be an inexpensive, wireless networking system for all classes of portable devices, such as laptops, PDAs (personal digital assistants), and mobile phones. It also will enable wireless connections for desktop computers, making connections between monitors, printers, keyboards, and the CPU cable-free. The controlling device of the whole system is a Microcontroller. Bluetooth module, 4-Relays board and LCD display are interfaced to the Microcontroller. The data received by the Bluetooth module from Android smart phone is fed as input to the controller. The controller acts accordingly on the Relays to switch connected electrical appliances. Also, the status of the electrical appliances can be seen on LCD display.

In this project we have Six Electrical loads (bulb, AC, motors, heaters, and power controlling systems). In Industry we have different types of loads at different locations. We can control all loads at a time from one place (control room) without connecting any physical wire between loads and control room.
