Introduction

In this repository, we have implemented a range of features to make your home smarter and more efficient. The project includes various IoT devices and sensors that can be controlled and monitored through a central system. This system can be accessed and controlled remotely, making it easy to manage your home's devices and services from anywhere.

Features

  • Remote Control: Control smart devices in your home from your smartphone or computer, no matter where you are.
  • Home Automation: Set up automation rules for your devices to make your home more efficient.
  • Data Monitoring: Collect and visualize data from sensors around your home.
  • Security: Enhance the security of your home by integrating IoT-based security systems.
