Abstract
People of physical limitations like old age people, physically disabled people, and autistic people face a lot of challenges to accomplish their daily tasks. It is hard for them to operate regular appliances (like fan, light, opening or closing the window) which may seem very casual for us who are physically blessed. Now a days touch based controlling has greater psychological impact on human mind. Touch uses the user's imagination power more. Driven by these key thinking, we have thought of a home appliance controlling system — touch based smart home which augments the users real life experience. In this paper we describe the development of a prototype that uses the augmented reality based on touch controlling system to control the daily home appliances in a smart home. We have used a smart phone to design the user interface, QR code to track appliances, web service to communicate between the central controlling system and a client app (the smart phone), through X10 to control the appliances physically.
