Description
A mimimalistic demo app of Voice Controlled Home Appliances using Arduino. The source code for Arduino and Android app will be made available on my blog http://anwaarullah.com soon.If you need any help in building the Circuit, please email me at syed@anwaarullah.com
Basic Setup:
1. Connect a Bluetooth Module to the Arduino Serial Port
2. Connect 3 Loads (or LEDs for testing) to Pins 8,9 and 10
3. Upload the Arduino Code below
4. Open the App and establish a connection with the Bluetooth Module
5. Select the Appropriate buttons and the LEDs/Load should lit up accordingly
The following pins are connected to the Buttons on the App:
Yellow Lamp = Digital Pin 8 of Arduino
Fan = Digital Pin 9 of Arduino
Red Lamp = Digital Pin 10 of Arduino
To give in voice commands, hit the mic button and say in any of these commands:
"red lamp on"
"red lamp off"
"fan on"
"fan off"
"yellow lamp on"
"yellow lamp off"
I've attached a sample schematic that can be used for reference in connecting.
To see a demo of this application, please visit this video http://vimeo.com/53071330 and navigate to 20:00 on the video. This was a talk where I made this App for a demo.
#### Arduino Source Code ####
char ch = 'A';
int lamp1 = 8;
int lamp2 = 9;
int lamp3 = 10;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
pinMode(lamp1, OUTPUT);
pinMode(lamp2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(lamp3, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(lamp1, LOW);
digitalWrite(lamp2, LOW);
digitalWrite(lamp3, LOW);
}
void loop()
{
if (Serial.available() > 0)
{
ch = Serial.read();
if (ch == '1') {
digitalWrite(lamp1, HIGH);
}
if (ch == '2') {
digitalWrite(lamp2, HIGH);
}
if (ch == '3') {
digitalWrite(lamp3, HIGH);
}
if (ch == '4') {
digitalWrite(lamp1, LOW);
}
if (ch == '5') {
digitalWrite(lamp2, LOW);
}
if (ch == '6') {
digitalWrite(lamp3, LOW);
}
}
delay(500);
ch = 'A';
}
Note: Please be careful while handling high voltage loads. Take all necessary precautions while building the circuit. I'm not responsible for any damage whatever, in any way whatsoever arising out of the use of this App (Physical or Material).

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
