Smart Control Devices

Оглавление

Smart tracking systems capture, process and enable data from a range of sensors to respond to sensor–sensor events. An intelligent control system may be run independently without a central server order. Nevertheless, different control devices that require connectivity or they are able to link to one another via the intelligent gateway (Table 1.3).

Table 1.3 Smart control devices [56].

Sensor Measurement Calory
IR sensor User presence in a room Environmental sensors (ES)
Video cameras Human actions (ES)
RFID Object identification (ES)
Motion sensor Object/User presence/ location (ES)
Contact switch Detect users’interaction with the object (ES)
Pressure sensor Tracking movements and location of the user (ES)
Light sensor Intensity 01 light (ES)
Temperature sensor Temperature of surrounding environment (ES)
Humidity sensor Detect the air humidity in a specific area (ES)
Power sensor Detect the usage of electric devices (ES)
Accelerometer The rate of acceleration accompanying a sensitive axis Wearable-mental sensors (WMS)
Gyroscope Angular velocity and maintain orientation (WMS)
Electroencephalography Observing electrical brain activity (WMS)
Electrooculography Observing eye movement of ocular activity (WMS)
Electromyography Observing muscle activity (WMS)
Electrocardiography Observing cardiac activity, pressure sensors for observing blood pressure (WMS)
CO2 gas sensors Observing respiration (WMS)
Thermal sensors Observing body temperature (WMS)
Galvanic skin response Observing skin sweating (WMS)

Automatically, life and seasons shift. Try it on your own for a week. These study the temperatures expected by the inhabitants and generate a personalized routine in the background.

WeMo is a Wi-Fi mechanism that enables mobile devices to be enabled/ disabled everywhere. It monitors the orientation sensors of lamps, light bulbs, marts and connections and lighting devices, all from the mobile program or client.

The Nest thermostat, a mobile tool that Nest has built and purchased by google, adjusts seamlessly to your life and the seasons.

Lockitron is a door lock that enables the door to be unlocked and closed by telephone remotely on the Computer. Every iOS or Android device can install and use the Lockitron software.

A wireless hub that connects multiple mobile appliances and applications is part of the SmartThings SB management system; the wireless hub incorporates numerous protocols and Protocols including ZigBee, Z-Wave, and open IP apps that allow them to power over Wi-Fi than Bluetooth connectivity.

Philips Hue is a blend of mobile LED illumination, a smartphone device accompanying using WLAN apps for the mood-based control of artificial lighting and color packages. This device tracks users’ drinking patterns and gives them reminders as to the amount and quantity of the water they can consume to keep them safe and hydrated.

Canary is a home protection device that incorporates a variety of atmospheric pressure, air pollution, noise & activity indicators detection, and a single unit HD video camera [53].

Amazon Echo is a tiny cylindrical device that enables users to monitor something at home through their voices. Amazon Echo provides a versatile capacity for speech identification which the customer needs to think about their voice’s sophistication. Table 1.4 shows the difference between various smart control devices in SB.

Table 1.4 Difference Between Various Smart Control Devices in SB [56].

Technology Platform used Pros Cons
WeMo Wi-Fi Android, iOS, Windows Phone Affordable hardware options. Can expand using Smart Things hob. Can expand using IFT1T. No color bulbs, no dimmer switches. Experienced some latency issues.
Nest Thermostat Wi-Fi, Zigbee, Thread Android, iOS, MAC OS, Windows Phone Easy to program. It learns the user daily routine; it could set itself up for the user lifestyle after the first work of use. More expensive than other smart thermostats. The Nest might not be for you if you are a sticker for temperatures that are “lust right”.
Lockitron Bluetooth Android, iOS Affordable, Easy to install, quick operation. Offers proximity locking and unlocking. Wi-Fi bridge costs extra. Does not work with other devices.
SmartThings Wi-Fi,Zigbee, Z-Wave, Bluetooth Android. iOS, Windows Phone Affordable, Easy to install, quick operation. Offers proximity locking and unlocking. Compatibility issues with. other devices, workarounds for non-natively supported devices will be difficult for some.
Philips Hue Wi-Fi Android, iOS Modest list of 3rd party integrations. Offers own proprietary hardware. Active web community for help. Deep customization for power user. Least user-friendly app, Complex to configure simple task. Missing some “key” integrations.
Blufitbottle Bluetooth iOS andAndroid Easy to set up and use. Excellent Light quality High Cost.
Canary Wi-Fi iOS andAndroid device Simple and easy to set up. Expensive.
Amazon Echo Wi-Fi,Bluetooth Fire OS, Android, and iOS High-quality voice recognition. Integrations with all of the “key players”, works for all users. regardless of phone brand. The system only detects the intruder once they are inside premises.
Honeywell Wi-Fi,Z-Wave iOS and Android Easy installation. Priced higher than other smart thermostats with similar functionality.

This system blends smart home automation with a safety management function, with Honeywell Complete Link Remote Services. This helps us to track and regulate things through decorations and windshield covers to home security devices and smoke alarms.
