This document proposes using an FPGA controller for home automation with wireless connectivity. It discusses problems with existing wired and microcontroller-based systems, including lack of simultaneous operation. The objective is a convenient wireless system using an FPGA for security. A literature review shows past work using Bluetooth, microprocessors, and FPGAs. The proposed system uses an FPGA with Bluetooth and a mobile app for remote control and monitoring of appliances and sensors like temperature and gas. It would allow complex, large-scale automation with low delay.
