dc.description.abstract | The integration of robotics with microcontroller-based embedded systems has transformed
smart home automation, enhancing convenience, security, and energy efficiency.
Microcontrollers, such as ESP32 play a pivotal role in managing these systems due to their low
cost, real-time processing capabilities, and compatibility with wireless communication
protocols like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. These embedded systems coordinate sensors, actuators,
and robotic mechanisms to automate tasks, such as lighting control, temperature regulation,
and home security monitoring.
In smart homes, robotic systems work with microcontrollers to execute functions based on real time data inputs. For example, motion sensors and cameras can detect activity and trigger
robotic devices like vacuum cleaners or lock systems. Additionally, AI and machine learning
enable these systems to adapt to user behavior, improving efficiency through predictive
decisions like optimizing temperature settings or scheduling cleaning tasks.
While the advantages of such systems are vast—reducing human effort, improving safety, and
minimizing energy consumption—challenges like cybersecurity, data privacy, and the
complexity of integration must be addressed. Nonetheless, ongoing advancements in
microcontroller technology, AI algorithms, and communication standards are driving the
adoption of these systems in smart homes, making them a key component in the future of home
