VOXAIOT: A Voice-Activated IoT System for Real-Time Automation and Smart Control Using Google Assistant and Arduino

Supported by the Internet of Things (IoT) and voice assistance, the project VOXAIOT is about developing a new high-level automation system. Google Assistant is used to control and display feedback for an Arduino Uno project that is made up of a buzzer, LED, PIR sensor, ultrasonic sensor, resistor, breadboard, and jumper wires. Monitoring via voice commands is allowed with this smooth integration, contributing to the enhancement of user experience and system interaction. The system is based on different types of sensors performing motion detection and distance measurement, providing both security and automation features. The PIR sensor is used to motion detection, and the ultrasonic sensor is used to displacement measurement, which can provide precise data to the control system. Google Assistant serves as voice interface, through which the user can enable/disable the sensors, and do actions such as turning the LED light on/off, blow the buzzer, etc. The primary feature that differentiates VOXAIOT is the marriage of hardware with the cloud, which facilitates high-acuity voice control with very low lag time. This allows the system to quickly heeds voice commands, leaving the interaction uninterrupted. The experiment reveals the feasibility of using voice recognition and IoT to design a smart home/industrial automation based solution. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of the framework to integrate low-level hardware with cloud services, yielding a novel way to command and monitor automation system by voice commands.
