In this paper the home automation systems to support elderly and physically challenged people in providing them secure, safe and controlled environment is reviewed. Various technologies like Brain Controlled Interface (BCI) technology, Human Computer Interface system, GSM SMS services, Bluetooth, PIC Microcontroller with ZigBee modulation, Voice controlled home automation, Novel Electroculogram (EOG), Assistive Visible Light Communication (VLC) etc. are discussed. By using smart home technology, the life of such people becomes easier and comfortable. The proposed paper is dedicated to old age and physically impaired people.
