Alternative control method of the smart house: natural gestures

Due to the rapid increase of house automation use it is clear that alternative methods of control are needed. This paper presents a control method based on the person's gestures that allows a high degree of control especially on devices that have binary states (on/off). The gesture based interf...

description Due to the rapid increase of house automation use it is clear that alternative methods of control are needed. This paper presents a control method based on the person's gestures that allows a high degree of control especially on devices that have binary states (on/off). The gesture based interface is suitable for the control of the smart house because it offers a simple yet powerful control mechanism that is appropriate even for children, elderly persons and persons with disabilities due to the intuitive interface. In order to test the functionality of this control method, a smart house control system has been implemented. A bracelet has been implemented using the C language into an Atmega168 microcontroller based board. This bracelet is capable of sensing hand movements, and with the help of a location identification system, even the person's location. The main control system has been implemented using VHDL into a Xilinx Spartan-3E FPGA and it is capable of domestic device control and GUI display. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
