Abstract: Wireless sensor network in home, offices are easy to establish without using cables and offers a greater coverage. This paper presents the design and implementation of a wireless sensor network for automating the home or offices. The developed system consists of sensor node and master node which are organized into a star topology network by ZigBee communication. The system is used to monitor and control the temperature, light, fire, gas leakage, water leakage and intrusion in home, office environment. User can take action to restrain the alert condition through computer or switches connected to master node. Through the experiments, the feasibility and practicability of the system has been checked and the results are interpreted in this paper. The designed system provides a flexible and low cost solution for us to make our home, office smarter.
