Abstract
With the rapid economic development, fast-paced social life has become the main cantus of cities. Smart Home is the inevitable result of the social development and the scientific and technological progress. It mainly studies the application of the control system based on raindrop sensor in the windows of smart home. Detect the rain signal through the sensor, then magnify the signal and let it enter into the control system, finally control the actions of the executing agency, automatically shut the windows in rain days. The automatic control system mainly consists of the following functional modules: transformer function modules, rain sensing and amplification modules, the control of driving direction function modules, mechanical drive system. The result of the practical application shows that this system is easy to operate, and has the characteristics of stable performance, convenient maintenance, cost-effective, value of commercial promotion.
