Design And Implementation Of An ESP32-Based Smart Home Automation System With Environmental Monitoring And Automated Controls

This paper presents an ESP32-based Home Automation System designed for efficient management of household components, enhancing convenience, safety, and resource optimization. The system integrates various sensors and devices, including relay-controlled bulbs and fans, motion-sensor lights, and automated nightlights. Environmental monitoring is achieved via a DHT22 sensor for temperature and humidity, and MQ2/MQ135 sensors for gas detection, promoting real-time safety alerts. For smart gardening, a soil moisture sensor coupled with a submersible pump enables automated irrigation. Overheat protection ensures safety by automatically adjusting devices to prevent overheating. All components are managed through a mobile app using Wi-Fi, offering intuitive control and real-time monitoring. This project demonstrates the potential of ESP32 in building connected, intelligent home environments, driving the evolution of smart living systems
