Next weekNext week1. Robotics, home automation and homecare for dwellings (Domotica)

Introduction to course and assignments2. Functionalities installed

Functionalities installed in subsidized projects; Reasons for subsidizing; Problems that arose during implementation

3. ICT Infrastructures in the homeCurrent ICT structures; Its usability for different generations; Limitations and capabilities of ICT structures; Future requirements for complex environments

4. Site visit at Rundgraaf Park with Viedome installedStudents are requested to use their own transportation to arrive at the Rundgraafpark at 13.00 H; the tour will end at 15.00 H

5. Robotics for dwellings and Building Management Systems for OfficesTechnological and organizational aspects of the two traditions

6. Barriers to mass introduction of home automation and home roboticsHome automation and teleservices (including telecare) have not been introduced on a massive scale; Technical, organizational and personal barriers.

7. Building requirements for successful home automation and roboticsBuilding characteristics for adaptive and adaptable dwellings supporting independence up to a high age

8. The near futureShort expert introductions and full scale student discussions; What has been achieved? What is still to be done by the building (services) engineer?
