This study presents the development of an IoT-based room temperature monitoring and AC control system at the Faculty of Engineering, Universitas Malikussaleh, using NodeMCU ESP8266, DHT11 sensor, PIR sensor, and IR LED for real-time automation via a Firebase web interface. The system automatically adjusts AC operation based on room temperature and occupancy, with daily logic resets to accommodate dynamic conditions. Testing conducted over one week demonstrated effective temperature stabilization within 25–26°C with ±2°C fluctuations and significant energy savings by deactivating the AC when the temperature drops below 25°C or the room is unoccupied. The PIR sensor supports a detection range of up to 7 meters, allowing scalability for different room sizes. User evaluation involving five respondents reported satisfaction scores of 4.2 for comfort and energy efficiency, though aspects such as the web interface (3.6) and system information display (2.6) require improvement. Overall, the system effectively enhances energy efficiency, ensures room comfort, and provides flexible control for users, supporting the smart classroom concept. Future development is directed toward the use of more accurate sensors like DHT22 or DS18B20, improved network stability, and integration with virtual assistants for voice-controlled operation.
