Diseño de un sistema domótico para facilitar la interacción de personas con discapacidad a través de interfaces remotas y mandos por voz

Abstract

This research project presents the methodology of design of a domotic solution that facilitates the integration of persons with disabilities into the home. Four interfaces that allow the interaction of the user with the facilities in the home are developed: web-based interface, remote control interface, RFID interface, and voice commands interface. Two different technologies have been used for developing this solution. The first one is a proprietary technology, which implements a single communication bus for interconnec¬ting intelligent devices that manage the home facilities based on the previously programmed commands. The second one is an open hardware solution, developed by using the Arduino technology. Both technologies offer good results for the purposes of helping with the inte¬gration of persons with disabilities into the home. The main differences are the throughput and the price. The trade off between price and throughput is analyzed, and allows a proper selection of the technology that best meets the requirements of every person.
