Expanding the Accessibility of Conventional Smart Home Systems

Abstract

This project will seek to explore the interaction between users and systems of smart devices and how the interface for this interaction can be enhance. In order to gain insight into the design and implementation of a smart home hub, we designed and created a smart home system with a Raspberry Pi acting as the central hub. Our project aims to use this system as a platform to consider alternatives and supplements to the traditional smart home system interface in order to improve its usefulness. These alternatives include technology such as voice recognition and motion control.
