In this paper, we describe our ongoing work to build future networked audio and visual home appliances. We have developed a prototype system on a Linux-based PC The system has adopted HAVi (Home Audio/Video Interoperability) as distributed middleware for home appliances. We have implemented HAVi in Java. Adopting both Linux and Java increases the portability of the software modules and reduces the development cost dramatically. We also present some experiments building a prototype system and applications based on Linux and Java
