Abstract

The use of visible light communication (VLC) in the area of smart home automation is presented in this paper. The VLC link between two Arduino development board containing microcontroller to transfer the controlling ASCII character through LED and LDR is also discussed. The Proteus ISIS simulation software is used to realize the data transfer between two microcontrollers. Simulation result revealed that different electrical gadgets can be controlled by using VLC link. The Experiment is also carried out to show its validation.
