%X <span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">The smart home is gradually
captivating worldwide and provides the best services to human life. It wipes
traditional houses by turning them into smart homes; nowadays, numerous
energy-efficient devices lead to optimal energy exploitation. It enhances the
inhabitant¡¯s lifestyle, safety, and comfort since it is suitable for users of
diverse incomes and ages. It is essential to exploit the technology to develop
energy-efficient smart homes. The design and implementation of energy-efficient
smart homes are proposed in this research work. It is a proposed model that can
control home appliances, monitor energy usage and send low priority devices in
switch OFF mode to save energy. It is a system that uses a combination of a central
controller, sensors, modules and PA-PSM algorithm also proposed by this
research work. The PIR sensor locates the human within the home and brings the
nearby appliance in active mode; however, the rest switch OFF mode, the LDR
(light dependent resistor) to sense the intensity of the light to decide if the
light is needed else stays in switch OFF mode. The Arduino manages all the
sensors, modules, home appliances including scheduling, and energy consumption
of individual home appliances. The system automates the process and accepts the
commands from end-user through mobile applications to use home appliances. It
is a novel approach that has several experiments that help to reduce 20.34% of
energy consumption.
