2. What is Home Automation
Home automation is building automation for a home, called a smart
home or smart house. A home automation system will control lighting,
climate, entertainment systems, and appliances. It may also include
home security such as access control and alarm systems.

6. BREADBOARD
7. USB TO MINI B
4. 1. LED BULB
● 3mm LEDs are not as bright but are smaller, and are good for
indication (like an LED that tells you something is on). They're not
as good for illumination because they have a smaller area that is lit.
● 5mm LEDs can be so bright, they are often used as illumination
(lighting something up, like a flashlight).
● 10mm LEDs are a little more rare, they are huge and chunky but
are usually just 5mm LEDs with a bigger case so they aren't any
brighter. They can be good indicators but we rarely see them as
illuminators.
5. 2. RESISTORS
1. Resistors are used to restrict current flow in a circuit. Most-
frequently used in circuit designs, fixed resistors come with fixed
resistance and help restrict flow of current at certain level.
2. Fixed resistors are the resistors whose resistance does not change
with the change in voltage or temperature. Fixed resistors are
available in various shapes and sizes. An ideal fixed resistor
provides a constant resistance under all environments.
6. 3. JUMPER WIRE
Jumper wires are simply wires that have connector pins at each end,
allowing them to be used to connect two points to each other without
soldering. Jumper wires are typically used with breadboards and other
prototyping tools in order to make it easy to change a circuit as needed.
7. 4. BLUETOOTH DEVICE
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard used for exchanging data
between fixed and mobile devices over short distances using short-
wavelength.
8. 5. ARDUINO NANO
1. Arduino nano is a microcontroller board, microcontroller used in
Arduino nano is ATmega328p.
2. Arduino nano has flash memory of 32kb (2kb for boot),SRAM 2kb
while EEPROM memory of 1kb.
3. The Arduino Nano is a compact board similar to the Arduino UNO.
The Arduino Nano is a small, complete, and It has more or less the
same functionality of the Arduino.
4. The main difference between these two is the size. The
programming of UNO can be done with a USB cable whereas Nano
uses the mini USB cable.
9. 6. Breadboard
A breadboard is a solderless device for temporary prototype with
electronics and test circuit designs. Most electronic components in
electronic circuits can be interconnected by inserting their leads or
terminals into the holes and then making connections through wires
where appropriate.
10. 7. USB TO MINI
A Mini-b cable is presumed to have 5 pins. This connector is quite small,
about two-thirds the width of an A-style connector. It is also specified for
use in the newer standard called USB On-The-Go which allows
peripheral devices to communicate with the presence of a host
controller.
