iVision based Context-Aware Smart Home system

Ultimate goal of ubiquitous computing is to move computers away from the user's focus, by embedding them into the environment. The user will be surrounded by smart and internet powered devices. In this work we describe our research about the Smart Home system. Our solution contains all sorts of smart entities necessary at home. For the interaction with the user we defined two outputs: Smart Wall and Smart TV, and one input: iVision. iVision system is designed and implemented on SoC (System on Chip), to get higher performance, and less latency. Smart home appliances are implemented based on DPWS (Device Profile for Web Services). Additionally Context-Awareness driven architecture was suggested, to improve the quality of the service in a Smart Home system.
