Abstract
Objectives
In this paper, we present a plugin for the optimal placement of sensors in a smart home. Our approach includes the Building Information Modeling (BIM) which is a plan that describes the building layout.
Material and methods
This plugin uses the CSTB EveBim viewer for loading IFC file representing the digital building's model. We use then, a mathematical model based on a mixed integer linear program, to determine the optimal sensor placement according to building and sensors characteristics.
Results
The results show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm and the developed plugin. We obtain an optimal solution after few seconds, and we show the sensor placement on the building digital model.
Conclusion
We show the relevance of the proposed plugin to equip room of retirement home or ambient assisted living in order to identify occupant activity for home support application.
期刊介绍:
IRBM is the journal of the AGBM (Alliance for engineering in Biology an Medicine / Alliance pour le génie biologique et médical) and the SFGBM (BioMedical Engineering French Society / Société française de génie biologique médical) and the AFIB (French Association of Biomedical Engineers / Association française des ingénieurs biomédicaux).
As a vehicle of information and knowledge in the field of biomedical technologies, IRBM is devoted to fundamental as well as clinical research. Biomedical engineering and use of new technologies are the cornerstones of IRBM, providing authors and users with the latest information. Its six issues per year propose reviews (state-of-the-art and current knowledge), original articles directed at fundamental research and articles focusing on biomedical engineering. All articles are submitted to peer reviewers acting as guarantors for IRBM''s scientific and medical content. The field covered by IRBM includes all the discipline of Biomedical engineering. Thereby, the type of papers published include those that cover the technological and methodological development in:
