“…Voice user interfaces can improve the recognition rate by applying noise reduction and acoustic echo cancelation [58], as voice commands may not be recognized well in noisy surroundings. Gesture user interfaces may be less intuitive because the user must learn gestures for device control [59], and recognition errors may occur depending on the user's location or surroundings [60]. Therefore, gestures that can be learned naturally are applied, and a gesture user interface capable of quick and accurate command recognition in various situations is required.…”

Smart homes improve quality of life by providing various services based on information and communication technologies. However, smart home systems are complicated and user interfaces for the interaction between smart home and user are often not user-friendly, causing potential difficulties and inconvenience for the user. Therefore, in order for smart homes to become user-centered, usability needs to be improved. This study aims to present guidelines for improving the usability of smart homes based on the concept of affordance, which is highly meaningful in user-centered design. To do this, firstly, the affordance factors that could be applied to improve the usability of active devices and user interfaces in smart homes were extracted, secondly, a case study was conducted to analyze the application of affordance factors, focusing on active devices (e.g., control devices and smart appliances) and user interfaces that directly interact with users in smart homes. Lastly, guidelines on the application of affordance factors were presented by combining case analysis results with relevant guidelines. Active devices and user interfaces should provide users with appropriate cognitive, physical, functional, and sensory affordances so that users can use the smart home services easily and conveniently.

“…When it comes time to test a larger network many will opt for models and simulations [4,5] but setting this up can be as involved, or even more so, than the protocols being investigated and the cost for specialised software can be prohibitive. Furthermore, this approach can easily miss affects and phenomena not predicted by the researcher, so for this reason many still prefer real-world testing on hardware but forgo large scale testing [3,6,7]. Many of these papers offer little or no discussion of the methodology used to program their devices.…”

Traditional infrared air conditioner remote control range is confined to a maximum of 10 meters. When mercury soars users set very low temperature of AC Unit, resulting in Electricity consumption and discomfort. To improve AC remote control range and to provide a comfort temperature of the user, a solution of Internet Enabled Remote Control Device for Air Conditioners is proposed. The user, while commuting or at home, sets the air conditioner (AC) unit to a desired temperature best suited for the individual. The remote controller, according to the user set parameters Travel time, Set temperature, operates the AC unit. An algorithm is developed to control the AC considering the Ambient Temperature and the above two parameters to keep the room temperature desired by the user when user reaches the destination. The user gets the information about the Temperature values issued by the AC remote control. This design is validated on an in-house developed Xilinx Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) board
