“How to make a FREE IoT-based Home Automation with Google Assistant & Alexa using ESP32. (Circuit + Code)
In this ESP32 project, I have shown how to make an IoT-based Home Automation with Google Assistant & Alexa using ESP32 to control 3 home appliances with voice commands.
During the article, I have shown all the steps to make this smart home system.
This complete Home Automation system has the following features:
- Control appliances with Google Assistant
- Control appliances with Alexa
- Control appliances manually with switches.
- Monitor real-time feedback in the Google Home and Amazon Alexa App.
- You can also set Automation to control the relays automatically.
- Control home appliances manually without internet.
- For this project, I have used a FREE Sinric Pro account
- So, you can easily make this home automation project at home just by using an ESP32 and relay module. You can also use a custom-designed PCB for this project.
Required Components:
1. ESP32 DEVKIT V1
2. 4-channel SPDT 5V Relay Module
3. Manual Switches or Push Buttons
4. Alexa Echo Dot (Optional)
If you use the custom-designed PCB for this project, then please refer to the following required components list.
