Home automation is a popular field of application which combines the concepts of embedded systems and pervasive computing to control a living space for modern times. A smart home system aims to free up the user to carry out his or her daily tasks without worrying on the trivial aspects of personal home management, while at the same time providing the user with more control of the home than ever before. The implementation comprises of a large number of sensors which can be used to control or monitor objects distributed in three-dimensional space around the house. The sensors can be specialized in measuring temperature, humidity, pressure, light, noise, dust air, and upon intelligently computed triggers, compel the system to perform a specific task, or a set of tasks. In this project, a solution to transform a normal house into a smart, autonomous house in order to reduce the energy consumption of the household is proposed. This can be realized with the help of wired sensor networks where we control and interface with electronic appliances via a Raspberry Pi, an embedded development platform. The embedded platform can be controlled remotely to turn switches on and off, and eventually aims to become as autonomous as possible via the help of a Bayesian Network. The base workings of the project are aimed at being as scalable as possible, to be able to potentially fit into industrial as well as office environments in the future.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
