Smart homes presentation

presentation about smart home for computer science specialization

1. Smart Homes Presented by : Shaden

2. Introduction: The term smart homes came because of the intelligence of the home appliance in general, and not the smart home itself in particular, and there are many forms and types of these appliance for smart home. With the introduction of IoT technologies, which means that devices are communicating with one another and receiving some orders through the Internet, there is also a tendency to develop smart homes in order to comfort users around the world

4. Smart home technology: also often referred to as home automation or domotics (from the Latin " domus " meaning home), provides homeowners security, comfort, convenience and energy efficiency by allowing them to control smart devices, often by a smart home app on their smartphone or other networked device. A part of the internet of things ( IoT ), smart home systems and devices often operate together, sharing consumer usage data among themselves and automating actions based on the homeowners' preferences.

5. History of smart homes: The twentieth century witnessed a dramatic revolution in the birth of modern technology, and the main thrust in the birth of this technology was the introduction of electricity into homes at the beginning of this century and it has become a new source of clean and comfortable energy for devices and stimulated the invention of many electrical equipment and tools such as washing machines, heaters, refrigerators, sewing machines and clothes dryers. In 1975, the first X10 home network automation technology was developed, which is a software protocol that uses electrical energy transmission wires to send and exchange digital signals between electrical devices via pulsed chanting technology. The disadvantage of this system is that the electrical wires are not designed to be free of radio-band “noise” resulting in signal loss. Also, the X10 was a one-way protocol, as smart devices can implement commands, but you cannot send data back to a central network.

6. In 2005, the home automation company ( Instion ) introduced protocols that use wireless signals such as: Zigbee ( Zigbee ) and Z-Wave to overcome the problems experienced by X10, and in 2011 ((Nest Labs)) released its first smart product, the intelligent device control Thermoplastic, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors were also provided, as well as protection systems and surveillance cameras . Recently, several companies such as Amazon, Apple and Google released their smart home platforms.

7. Generations of smart homes: -The first generation: systems that have used a wireless communications protocol, such as Zigbee ( Zigbee ) -The second generation: artificial intelligence systems that control electrical devices on their own, such as the Amazon echo -The third generation: a friendly robot that interacts with humans, for example Robot Rovio , Roomba

8. How smart home works: Smart House systems consist of switches and sensors connected to a central unit called a "gate" that is controlled through a user interface that interacts either with a wall-mounted terminal or through programs running on a mobile phone or tablet. Devices communicate with the gateway via M2M (machine to machine) technology. The M2M communication technology uses (sensors, instrument counters) to capture the event (movement, meter reading, temperature, lighting) that is transmitted over a network (wireless, wired, or mixed) to an application (computer program) that translates the captured event into meaningful information.

9. Example: smart washing machines alert the owners when there is a need to purchase more detergents, and smart refrigerators can refer to recipes for cooking based on the food available inside. Low-power wireless technologies can be used to connect devices with the M2M gateway such as WIFI, Zigbee , and Bluetooth Low Energy. The M2M gateway connects to the server via the network

10. Examples of smart home technologies: -Smart TVs connect to the internet to access content through applications, such as on-demand video and music. Some smart TVs also include voice or gesture recognition. -In addition to being able to be controlled remotely and customized, smart lighting systems, such as Hue from Philips Lighting Holding B.V., can detect when occupants are in the room and adjust lighting as needed. Smart lightbulbs can also regulate themselves based on daylight availability. -Using smart locks and garage-door openers, users can grant or deny access to visitors. Smart locks can also detect when residents are near and unlock the doors for them.

11. -With smart security cameras, residents can monitor their homes when they are away or on vacation. Smart motion sensors are also able to identify the difference between residents, visitors, pets and burglars, and can notify authorities if suspicious behavior is detected. -Pet care can be automated with connected feeders. Houseplants and lawns can be watered by way of connected timers.

12. Some smart home technologies: 1- ecobee3 Smarter WiFi Thermostat This device is the official or official face of smart home technologies. Just having this device will prompt the user to monitor the rate of energy consumption in addition to the possibility to raise or lower the temperature of the smartphone without the need for movement. In the event that the house to which the device is to be added occupies a large area of land, it is preferable to acquire a larger number of devices in order to cover every site that needs cooling or heating

13. Some smart home technologies 2- Philips Hue A lighting system that can be controlled by an application loaded on smartphones or tablets. The application works to control the colors and intensity of lighting.

14. Some smart home technologies 3- Nest Protect The device is a smoke detector and carbon monoxide emissions. The device beeps with a high volume alarm to alert the user to it. In the event that the user is not present at home at the time the problem occurred, the alert will be sent to his smartphone .

15. Some smart home technologies   4- Nest Cam High Resolution Wireless Security Camera. The camera offers an extended coverage angle of 1080 pixels.

16. The disadvantages of smart homes: -A drawback of smart homes is their perceived complexity; some people have difficulty with technology or will give up on it with the first annoyance. Smart home manufacturers and alliances are working on reducing complexity and improving the user experience to make it enjoyable and beneficial for users of all types and technical levels. -80 % of consumers in the United States feel that they suffer from the security of their smart data, because hackers can turn off lights and alarms, open doors, and leave the house without any protection. -Reports say 73% of consumers fear manufacturers may know their personal data is being protected by their smart home devices. Whereas, smart home platform manufacturers collect consumer data to better adapt their products or to provide new and improved services.
