SHARC as Home Electricity Controlling Applications Based on Android and Arduino: A Case Study

This study aims to generate client-server design and applications to control home electronics implemented using Android and Arduino devices, which are named SHARC. Applications generated from this research can provide convenience to the user to control electronic devices via Android. The analytical methodology used is literature study, and comparison of similar applications. The development methodology used is the Scrum method and uses UML in designing and modeling applications. Electronic control systems are designed with Arduino, relays, and sensors for electronic monitoring. The connectivity used to control is Bluetooth, to be able to control every electronic device must first connect to the specified Bluetooth. The results achieved are Android applications that can be used to control and electronic monitoring. The results of this study in the form of SHARC application proved to provide convenience and help users to control electronics.
