Smart Homefor disabled people
Students: Atara Gutman and Anastasia LogvinenkoInstructor: Alexander Kinko
PDR presentationSemester Spring 2014 - part A
Introduction
• Many tasks around the house that seems really simple for us sometimes become a big issue for disabled people.
• In our project we would like to help those people to manage and complete some of those tasks in an easier way, so they can be more independent, and live care free.
Project’s Concept Building a smart home system for full management and control
of house devices. emphasis on:
Fitting disabled people needsCheap system
Table Of Contents• Control and system functionality• Smart home: Top level system
• Project’s Goals• Development Board• PC• Sensors Choice
• Time flow
Control and system functionality:
Controlling devices around the houseSecurity systemDetecting emergency and act properly.Detecting failures in the house“talking” with the tenant – visually.Energy saver• Abilities:
Switching the lightsControlling the air conditionSet the water temperature in the showerControlling machines such as TV, washer, dishwasher, microwave
and more.Motion, fire, failure detecting.
Project’s GoalsBuilding subsystem part A.
Learning the Zedboard and its working environment.Writing algorithms and software for FPGA, ARM and PC.Create basic PC - ZedBoard communication line.
Building full system part B.Learning sensors and products to help the system control the
house.Learning Communication protocols for sensors.Full algorithm system
PC
• Part A :• Basic software for communication and board
management. • Create basic user interface.
• Part B :• Software and interface improvements.• Smart Phone– (?)
• Connecting the house to user’s smart phone device
Sensors choice1. Market
Z-wave communication Low cost
2. Sensors: Motion Temperature Light switch Smoke detector Wall plug Doors and windows manager Fluid Air condition Wired sensors
Z-Wave is a wireless communications protocol designed for home automation, specifically to remotely control applications in residential and light commercial environments. The technology uses a low-power RF radio embedded or retrofitted into home electronics devices and systems, such as lighting, residential access control, entertainment systems and household appliances.
