# Project: Advanced J.A.R.V.I.S.
AI with IoT Integration
## Introduction
This project aims to create an advanced J.A.R.V.I.S.-like AI assistant that can
control smart home devices using a Raspberry Pi. It will integrate voice
recognition, AI processing, IoT automation, and advanced proximity detection.
## 1. Hardware Requirements
- **Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 (8GB RAM recommended)**
- **MicroSD Card (32GB or higher)**
- **Relay Module (5V or 12V)**
- **Jumper Wires**
- **ESP8266/ESP32 (optional for wireless communication)**
- **Motion Sensors (PIR or LiDAR)**
- **Camera Module (for AI-based security features)**
- **Microphone & Speaker (for voice control)**
## 2. Software & Libraries Needed
- **Raspberry Pi OS (latest version)**
- **Python 3**
- **Flask (for Web Dashboard)**
- **Mosquitto MQTT (for IoT communication)**
- **SpeechRecognition (for voice commands)**
- **OpenCV (for AI vision processing)**
- **Paho-MQTT (to communicate with IoT devices)**
## 3. Setting Up Raspberry Pi
1. Download and install **Raspberry Pi OS** using Raspberry Pi Imager.
2. Enable SSH and connect the Raspberry Pi to Wi-Fi.
3. Update the system:
```bash
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
```
## 4. Installing Required Packages
```bash
sudo apt install python3-pip mosquitto mosquitto-clients -y
pip3 install flask paho-mqtt speechrecognition opencv-python numpy
```
## 5. Connecting Relay to Raspberry Pi
- Connect the **GPIO pin** of Raspberry Pi to the **Relay Module**.
- Example connection:
- **Relay IN1** → **GPIO 17** (BCM Mode)
- **VCC** → **5V**
- **GND** → **GND**
## 6. Writing Python Script for Device Control
Create a Python script to turn ON/OFF a device:
```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time
relay_pin = 17
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(relay_pin, GPIO.OUT)
def turn_on():
GPIO.output(relay_pin, GPIO.HIGH)
print("Device Turned ON")
def turn_off():
GPIO.output(relay_pin, GPIO.LOW)
print("Device Turned OFF")
turn_on()
time.sleep(5)
turn_off()
GPIO.cleanup()
```
## 7. Implementing Voice Control
Use Google Speech API for voice recognition:
```python
import speech_recognition as sr
def listen_command():
recognizer = sr.Recognizer()
with sr.Microphone() as source:
print("Listening...")
audio = recognizer.listen(source)
try:
command = recognizer.recognize_google(audio).lower()
print(f"User said: {command}")
return command
except:
print("Sorry, I didn't catch that.")
return None
listen_command()
```
## 8. Setting Up MQTT Communication
### Install Mosquitto MQTT on Raspberry Pi
```bash
sudo systemctl enable mosquitto
```
### Python MQTT Publisher Example
```python
import paho.mqtt.client as mqtt
client = mqtt.Client()
client.connect("localhost", 1883, 60)
client.publish("jarvis/control", "turn_on_light")
print("Message Sent")
client.disconnect()
```
### Python MQTT Subscriber Example
```python
def on_message(client, userdata, msg):
print(f"Received command: {msg.payload.decode()}")
if msg.payload.decode() == "turn_on_light":
turn_on()
client = mqtt.Client()
client.connect("localhost", 1883, 60)
client.subscribe("jarvis/control")
client.on_message = on_message
client.loop_forever()
```
## 9. Web Dashboard for Remote Control
Create a Flask web app for device control:
```python
from flask import Flask, render_template
import os
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/")
def home():
return render_template("index.html")
@app.route("/turn_on")
def turn_on():
os.system("python3 turn_on.py")
return "Turned On"
@app.route("/turn_off")
def turn_off():
os.system("python3 turn_off.py")
return "Turned Off"
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=5000)
```
## 10. Expanding the System
- **AI-Based Face Recognition** – Use OpenCV to allow J.A.R.V.I.S. to identify
users.
- **Smart Home Automation** – Integrate with Google Assistant or Alexa.
- **Security Alerts** – Add cameras and send alerts based on movement.
## Conclusion
This guide provides a complete setup for building a **J.A.R.V.I.S.-like AI
Assistant** with IoT integration using **Raspberry Pi**. You can expand it further
with AI, automation, and real-world applications.
