Study Notes
- Butler robots use AI to manage homes.
- They can raise children and do many other things.
- 2017 marked the start of smart home robots becoming common.
- Smart home robots like Alexa and Kuri assist users.
Home Automation (Domotics)
- Domotics, or home automation, defines tech that automates private homes, providing comfort/security.
- These techniques automate building tasks like climate and light control, and automatic doors and windows.
- Domotics include multimedia, plant watering, pet feeding, and automated scenes.
- Smart or intelligent homes relies on integrating devices for automated control using sensors/telecommunications.
- These systems provide remote control and assistance.
- Integrated homes use interfaces like buttons, remote controls, touchscreens, keyboards, voice recognition.
- These interfaces communicate with a central computer or a distributed intelligence system.
Levels of Home Automation
- Intelligent object homes feature stand-alone applications, such as a kitchen robot.
- The kitchen robot has a database of recipes
- Intelligent, communicating objects exchange info to boost functionality, e.g., sensors turn on lights at dark.
- Connected homes have internal & external networks for interactive and remote control both inside/outside the home.
- A central computer controls devices in the house in connected homes.
- Learning homes can record activity to anticipate needs and automatically control tech, e.g., respond to snow.
- Attentive homes constantly register activity and locations to anticipate occupants’ needs, like automatic lights.
Domotic System Architecture
- Centralized systems have one main controller getting info from sensors and directing actuators.
- Distributed systems spread intelligence among modules (sensors/actuators) connected by wires.
- Mixed systems use decentralized setup with small devices processing sensor data and sharing it.
- These devices transmit the data to the rest of the devices distributed by the house.
