the Ardiuno maker.
Here we are using Arduino Uno Board [3]. It is based
onATmega328. Arduino consists of 14 digital
input/output pins(of which 6 can be used as PWM
outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz ceramic resonator, a
USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a
reset button. Arduino package contains everything
needed to support the microcontroller. It can be started
by connecting the board to PC with the help of USB
cable or can also be started by just supplying the board
with a battery/AC to DC adapter.

Fahrenheit and Celsius and we can monitor the room is connected to the Wi-Fi shield with long wire-wrap
temperature on computer display. headers which extend through the shield. Advantages of this
is, it allows another shield to stack on top as it keeps the
layout of pins intact. Using onboard micro-SD card slot we
can store files while serving over the network, which is
compatible with Mega and Arduino Uno. The SD Library
can access the onboard micro-SD card reader in which SS is
on Pin 4.
Using SPI bus the Wi-Fi shield processor and SD card
are communicated by Arduino. The SPI bus uses ICSP
header. The digital pins 11, 12, 13 of the Uno are allocated
for this. Pin 10 and 4 are used to select HDG204 and SD
card respectively, which cannot be used for general I/O
operations. Pin number 7 serves as a handshake pin between
Wi-Fi shield and Arduino. Either HDG204 or SD card can
be activated at a time as they share the same SPI bus.

relay is a simple electromechanical device made up of
electromagnet which can be operated by relatively small
electric current to turn OFF or turn ON large electric
current. Relays are using in many application because of its
long life, simplicity and high reliability. In this project
solid-state relay has been used. Solid state relay is shown in
