    The main objective is to solve the energy crises in Pakistanby using our automation sensor. The PIR sensor we are using in our project control the load connected in our rooms.pir sensor when detect the human body send a signal to relay which is directly connected with our load. The automation system is control by a pic-16f877a which is connected by a serial port with computer. In our computer excel time for rooms is uploaded when the time of excel is match with computer then it send signal to pic which further open the appliance. From this network we can save our energy.
