DOMESTIC IOT
APPLICATIONS
IoT Home Automation

 Home automation is constructing automation for a domestic, mentioned as a sensible home or


smart house. In the IoT home automation ecosystem, you can control your devices like light,
fan, TV, etc.
 A domestic automation system can monitor and/or manage home attributes adore lighting,
climate, enjoyment systems, and appliances. It is very helpful to control your home devices.
 A domestic automation system usually connects controlled devices to a central hub or
gateway.
 One of the key benefits of IoT-enabled home automation is the ability to control and monitor a
wide range of devices and systems from a single, centralized location, such as a smartphone
or tablet.
 Another advantage of IoT-enabled home automation is the ability to remotely monitor and
control devices, even when away from home. This can be useful for controlling energy
consumption and ensuring the safety and security of the home.
Smart Lighting

 Smart lighting for home helps in saving energy by adapting the life to the ambient
condition and switching on/off or dimming the light when needed.
 Smart lighting solutions for homes achieve energy saving by sensing the human
movements and their environments and controlling the lights accordingly.
 Smart lighting is the platform which encompasses different solid state technologies
such as LEDs and OLEDs to illuminate both indoor and outdoor areas. Smart lighting
systems generally include digital sensors, communications interfaces and actuators
drivers. These lighting systems are programmed using advanced control algorithms and
can be organized into lighting networks to operate remotely.
Smart Lighting System Architecture
Sensors for smart lighting platforms

 The modern day IoT lighting principles aim to control lighting


depending on varying the environment with a wide range of digital
sensors.
 GB colour sensors are intended to detect red-green-blue content of
light and tune white light in LED luminaires. For optical
communications including Visible Light Communication (VLC)
connectivity several technologies of photodiodes can be used in
wireless links mainly in indoor environments.
 In addition, more advanced functionalities such as spectral detection
of light are covered with micro-spectrometers to detect the light
spectrum in the visible range that can be detected by our eyes.

SMART APPLIANCES

 Any appliance can become smart with wireless connectivity and sensors that
allow remote control or autonomous operation through user input, scheduling,
or artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML).
 Sensors combined with wireless connectivity can provide the end-user with
information about the appliance’s usage, temperature, service life,
maintenance schedules, or operation anomalies.
What Do Smart Appliances Do?

 Smart appliances enable users to connect, control, and monitor their appliances
allowing them to save time, energy, and money.
 For example, they can schedule run times to fit personal schedules, take advantage of
cheaper off-peak energy, or maximize solar power utilization to save time, money, and
the environment.
 Additionally, they can remotely monitor appliances to ensure that they are turned off
for safety, even after leaving home.
Benefits of Smart Appliances

 A smart appliance’s benefits vary depending on its primary purpose and functionality.
Here’s a rundown of opportunities every device manufacturer should consider:
 Enhance user experience and brand loyalty beyond competitors through smart
capabilities, tracking usage data, and more
 Environmental and energy awareness – save water or energy
 Enhance the end-users work-life balance – automate chores
 Deliver peace of mind through safety – failure prediction and maintenance reminders
What to Consider when Designing a
Smart Wireless Appliance
 How to Maximize Wireless Reliability on Appliances?
The home is a demanding environment for wireless appliances due to walls, reflections,
interference, and dead spots. Yet a user's first impression of a device is often based on the
quality of its connectivity.
How to Increase Energy Efficiency on Appliances?
Power efficiency is vital for a better user experience in battery-operated and rechargeable
appliances such as electric toothbrushes, razors, and kitchen appliances. When designing
the most energy-efficient Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity, BG27 is the optimal choice.
How to Improve a Battery Level Tracking on Home Appliances?
How can you as a product designer ensure that your product will not run out of battery
during use? The integrated Coulomb Counter on BG27 enables you to implement accurate
battery level tracking on your appliances to provide the user with uninterrupted use.
 Enhancing a Smart Home Appliance with DCDC Converter
BG27 ultra-low-power Bluetooth LE SoC features an integrated DCDC converter providing you with
a wide voltage range of 0.8V-1.6V or 1.71V-3.8V. It enables the use of single-cell alkaline and button
cells to reduce product size and cost and extends battery use
How to Add More Intelligence to Battery Appliances?
When your smart appliance needs a higher level of intelligence for usability, functionality, and
differentiation, artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) capabilities can give you the edge
needed.
How to Protect Appliances from Cyber Threats?
Security is one of the top concerns for the users of connected home appliances. It’s easy to understand
why. The thought of someone entering your home via a connected washing machine or refrigerator is
scary. Silicon Labs’ Secure Vault™ is the most advanced IoT security solution globally, enabling you
to protect your appliances against the most sophisticated cyber threats and gain the users’ trust.
SMOKE/GAS DETECTOR

 WHAT IS A SMOKE DETECTING DEVICE?


A smoke detector designed as an electronic fire-protection device that automatically senses
the presence of smoke, as a key indication of fire, and sounds a warning to building
occupants. These smoke detectors provide a signal to a fire alarm control panel as part of a
building’s central fire alarm system or produces an audible and visual signal locally in a
household smoke detectors, or smoke alarms.
•.

Types of Detectors

Smoke Detectors:
Ionization: Best for fast-flaming fires.
Photoelectric: More effective for smoldering fires.
Gas Detector:
Natural Gas: Detects methane leaks.
Carbon Monoxide: Monitors CO levels.
Propane: Specialized for propane gas
Working Principles
 Smoke Detectors:
Ionization: Uses radioactive material to detect changes in ion flow.
Photoelectric: Uses light beams and sensors to detect smoke particles
Gas Detectors:
Electrochemical Sensors: Reacts with gas to produce an electrical signal.
Metal-Oxide Semiconductors: Change in resistance based on gas
concentration.
Installation and Placement

 Smoke Detectors: Near sleeping areas, on every level of the home.


 Gas Detectors: Close to potential gas sources (e.g., kitchen, furnace).
 Height Considerations: Install at ceiling level for smoke; near the floor for gas.
Maintenance and Testing:

• Monthly testing using the test button.


• Replace batteries at least once a year.
• Clean detectors to prevent dust accumulation.
Lifespan: Replace smoke detectors every 10 years and gas detectors every 5-7 years.
Integration with Smart Home
Systems
 IoT Features:
Remote notifications to smartphones.
Integration with home automation systems.
Data logging for trend analysis.
Benefits: Enhanced safety and convenience.
Challenges and Limitations:
False Alarms: Common issues with smoke detectors and ways to minimize them.
Limitations of Technology: Challenges in detecting specific gases and environmental
factors affecting performance
