Traditional switches are outdated as they have mechanical moving parts which are prone to wear and tear. In the 21st century, the use of mechanical switches for switching on the appliance is outdated. Hence, the TFT display will act as a substitute to the mechanical switches. The TFT (Thin Film Transistor) display consumes less power and has very less response time. It displays information such as temperature, number of people in the room etc. The system contains 2 modes namely, automatic and manual mode. The automatic mode uses the data from the sensors to give the appropriate lighting and fans speed. If the lights falling on the sensors are not too much, then the lights will be switched on automatically. Similarly, depending on the temperature, the fan speed is determined. Whereas, in manual mode, the data from the sensors are not utilized. If a person enters the room, the appliances will work in their default working condition. The light and the speed of the fan can be controlled using the TFT display as well.

Key Words: TFT display, Automation, Manual mode,

The aged and the specially abled usually find it difficult to use the switches and hence have to experience difficulty to just switch on the lights and fans. All these can be avoided by implementing our project.

TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) is a device which is used to display the information of the fan speed, the status of lights in the room etc. The smart touch panel will be a cheaper alternative with rich features. The smart touch panel uses a TFT touch display. This uses a single click on the touch panel to operate the household appliances.. This also acts like a home automation device where the user can control the appliances through the internet. In this fast-moving world, people usually tend to forget to switch off the lights and fans after use. On a long-term basis, this is a waste of a natural resource and a complete waste of money as well.

1. INTRODUCTION

2. LITERATURE SURVEY

Switches are used in all households for switching on the appliances. It is an integral part of a house. Over the years, there has been no significant change in the appearance of the switchboard. These switches contain mechanical moving elements that degrade with prolonged usage.. These switchboards even develop cracks on them leading to the potential leakage of current through it leading to electric shock to the person touching it which is

V. Ricquebourg et al.[2] explains why a network infrastructure is required to transport data from heterogeneous smart things. This article also discusses the necessity to use information for a software architecture. To do so, they employ a service - oriented strategy to manage data and deliver more tailored services through the use of heterogeneous sensors. They use a publish or a subscribe bus to manage sensor data as they model and infer utilising contextual knowledge.

dangerous and unfavourable. According to a recent report, [1] 71.6% of total people electrocuted by low tension electric supply out of which 67.8% were electrocuted at their respective homes by iron, switches, cooler and other appliances etc.

V. M. Reddy, N. Vinay, T. Pokharna et al.[3] presented the usage of a cloud and web application to manage the switch's functionality. It's time to set up a cloud server. The switches are connected to a processor and a few electronic parts, including 555 timers, logic gates and flip-flops. The Web App is used to communicate with the processor. Following the control operation to the cloud, the processor uses the user's commands to control the switches and notifies the user of the switches' status.

Lately, there has been some development in this field. Many traditional switchboards are being replaced with contemporary touch switches that not only improve the appearance of our houses but also make using them easier and safer as well. But it isn’t cost effective. It isn’t affordable for the common man due to which it isn’t widely used.
