Abstract :
The vision of smart homes for all is taking shape as information technology advances. Our homes are starting to be aware of their state and can react upon events and user´s needs, thanks to the readily availability of inter-networked, low power consuming and cheap embedded sensors. Actuators complete the picture, by allowing the home to change its state proactively and interact with the human user.
