Industry 4.0 is the term for automation and
transparency of data using the latest technology. This concept
can be applied in several aspects of life besides the
manufacturing industry. The Boarding house is a type of
industry that has been thrived in D.I. Yogyakarta. It became a
place of residence for students and workers in urban areas. As
one type of business, boarding houses need a good management
system for the best service and run efficiently. At this time the
boarding house is still managed traditionally. Along with the
development of IoT (Internet of Things) technology, several
problems and its challenges can be solved with this technology.
5 types of sensors are used to realize this research. The sensor
sends data and then the information is processed in a software
application. This research uses a mobile application and
integrates the sensors to monitor and control boarding rooms.
This research can be used to face the new normal challenges,
using the latest technology. The challenge of contactless process,
energy efficiency, open information, and data can be well
prepared by boarding house owners. The proposed system is
predicted to save electricity costs for each bedroom by
approximately 38% and also affect the saving of electricity bill
payments by managers.
