Smart automation system based on field programmable gate array

Abstract

Smart automation system is an evolution of human kind to a new era. These systems do all the jobs quickly and efficiently which saves time in our daily life, and in order to make these smart systems work more efficiently, faster and accurately we have used an FPGA Board (Field- Programmable Gate Array) in our thesis project. FPGA is an integrated circuit (IC) that allows programmer to create their own design in the field after manufacture and the core is able to operate different modules simultaneously. The main goal of our thesis is to implement four features that will save us from various accidents and wastage like home on fire or over flow of water and a little bit of smart security where we used PIR motion sensor, fire sensor and water sensor. In order to complete our desired project we had to work in three portions – compilation of module, synthesis and hardware implementation. FPGA board works digitally that lead us to converting all the sensor data or outputs to digital. We designed different modules for compiling different sensors on the FPGA board, then synthesis and hardware implementation were carried out accordingly. In spite of facing many challenges up to the hardware implementation we were successfully able to reach our desired goal.
