Design of Cost Effective Home Automation System

Cloud based low-cost Home Monitoring and Automation System

This paper presents a cloud based low cost home automation system implemented using the Digilent chipKIT Uno32 and Arduino Uno. This is a proof of concept for a home that can be monitored and controlled remotely from anywhere in the world via the Internet. A “connected” home like this can make life more convenient and also safer. The remote monitoring aspect of this project demonstrates the abi...

Cost-effective Design of Real-time Home Healthcare Telemonitoring

A cost-effective knowledge-based reasoning system for design for automation

Design for assembly automation (DFAA) is an important part of the concurrent engineering strategy for reduction of product manufacturing costs and lead times. An intelligent knowledge-based system (KBS) for design for automation and early cost modelling within a concurrent engineering environment has been developed. This paper focuses upon the development of the design for an assembly automatio...

Model-Driven Flow for Assistive Home Automation System Design

People with disabilities sometimes have considerable difficulties, or even physical incapacities, performing daily tasks independently. Many research works have introduced home automation as a useful way to overcome these activity limitations. However, very few of these accomplishments have focused on the design of intelligent systems which would allow nonexperts to model and to adapt a home au...

Bluetooth based home automation system

The past decade has seen significant advancement in the field of consumer electronics. Various ‘intelligent’ appliances such as cellular phones, air-conditioners, home security devices, home theatres, etc. are set to realize the concept of a smart home. They have given rise to a Personal Area Network in home environment, where all these appliances can be interconnected and monitored using a sin...
