Technology evolution
Smart Homes / Automated Homes
Several technological solutions are being developed during the
last years(adoption of domotic devices / technology)
People lifestyles
1. Comfort ;2. Security;3. Economy & environment;4. Leisure & relax.

Domotic technology (II)
Advantages: 1. it is a standard;2. several companies developing devices;3. free software available (Calimero API);4. KNX association;Desavantage:1. Price !

1451.0 Std.[defines a set of operating modes and interfaces
for controlling sensors and actuators ]
(I&M developed using HDL languages and following the IEEE 1451.0 Std.)
BUT… the control of the physical space and the power infrastructure are usually forgotten and, if implemented, specific solutions are adopted !

Proposed Laboratory Infrastructure (I)
Adopting domotic devices enables:
1-controlling the power infrastructure (may be turned on/off)
-reduce power consumption and saves energy costs
- avoids equipment ageing effects- technical support may be reduced
2-controlling light and temperature conditions
- promote the correct lab operation- some experiments may require a
precise temperature/light control

Conclusions
Technological evolution + people lifestyles >> smart/automated homes;
There are many technological solutions in the market (e.g. KNX Std.);
But research community is always proposing new solutions and providing several studies in this domain.
IntroductionSmart / automated homesDomotic technologyProposed laboratory infrastructureConclusions
So….devices and the remote control usually adopted for smart homes
+laboratory infrastructure proposed (FPGA-based boards for replacing traditional instrumentation server + I&Ms)
=easy the remote control of the laboratory conditions (experiments), namely:
i) control environment conditions and ii) the power consumption.
