Design, development and performance evaluation of a smart office automation system

Abstract

This research work aimed at the design, development and performance of Office Automation System, using the Internet of Things (IoT) based and Voice Recognition Command. The data is stored in personal computer (PC) or android smartphone. Arduino IDE was the framework used in the development of the system, while C++ was the programming language used for programming the system. Similarly, a voice control was built using the This Then That (IFTTT) platform. The system developed was capable of enabling users to control office appliances like printer, air conditioner, light, fan, etc. with voice command using the Google home mini device. Results obtained from the laboratory test proved that the system had a very high (about 98%) performance rating. This system had shown that office automation system can use voice command to preform its task
