Abstract :
By using only a small fraction of the currently available technologies, the possibility of improving residents´ safety and economics is becoming more and more accessible. A home is smart when it uses intelligent systems to respond to users´ inputs or to situations that require actions to be taken without user intervention. This paper describes an intelligent lighting system that tracks users´ locations, turns on the light in a room just before the user enters the room and turns off the light when the user has left the room.
