This paper introduces a system that can effectively save home energy by applying a small embedded system through remote control. We used a wireless router based on OpenWrt for the platform to develop an embedded system and a smart phone for the remote LED light control. The system was implemented by connecting a wireless router with an OS of OpenWrt installed and an interface board with an LED attached. The smart phone, which was the remote control device, was implemented by TCP/IP programming. The operation of the remote control system was verified by socket communication between the smart phone and the wireless router, and by USB communication between the wireless router and the interface board.
