Abstract - This paper presents the idea of home automation
internet connection such devices become easy to use like IOT. Home automation using IoT has become extremely helpful for physically impaired people in various ways like smart lightning, and energy application. One can control all functions remotely in and around the home. The system can also perform face recognition within a camera itself because of which security, automation and IoT have become areas of amazing innovation.
which will be helpful for the elderly people as well as the people with special needs. Nowadays there are lot of security issues, unwanted entrance of unwanted people without permission and the elderly lives alone most of the time so for their security and safety we proposed this system call face recognition door lock. Fire often occurs due to negligence of using a gas stove so we also added smoke and fire detectors so that if this mistake occurs it’ll be avoided. Gas detection helps to monitor a leak of gas which then results in an explosion. We also added remote controlled appliances which will be controlled through phone from any distance through ESP32 Wi-Fi module. By using this system life of such paper gets easier, safer and more comfortable. This proposed paper is dedicated for older age people and also physically impaired people. Key Words: Esp32, OpenCV, Smart Home, Remote Controller, Arduino Uno, Raspberry Pi
1.INTRODUCTION The research shown that due to recent improvements in life expectancy, the proportion of older people has rapidly increased. Due to this aging population problems have emerged globally. Since elder people are exposed to more risks, we have proposed this small system which can help them and overcome there some problems.

Facial Recognition System:
The aim of this project to give older people a secure place to live in, if something happens there are people who will run to help them on the sound of an alert and to ease their life during this weaker stage in life. Senior Citizens require a variety of assistance in their day-today life. This is a project that assists senior citizens by performing tasks like door unlocking, appliance control and fire and gas detection automatically without user input. These days all homes are interfaced by various electronic devices – Everything from a Television to CCTV. When these devices are connected with various software and the

●
Facial recognition door lock uses raspberry pi and camera to scan the face of visitors and unlock door only for known faces
●
We use OpenCV library for the facial recognition processing. Raspberry Pi provides a powerful platform for the software to run properly.
●
A secondary password system is also utilized. Password is entered through a keypad.
●
An electronic lock is connected to the raspberry pi to open and close the door via software.
