Abstract

The legacy TV is now being replaced by IP-connected Smart TV which offers more advanced computing ability and connectivity. Smart TV also allows the user to install and run more advanced applications based on a specific platform. Smart TV is expected to play the role of a hub which combines wide variety of solutions for digital living services in home in the near future. In this paper, we present a home appliance control framework based on Smart TV set-top box. The purpose of this framework is to keep users leaning back and watching TV screen and then to provide them with an intuitive and convenient way to monitor and control home appliances. The proposed framework supports not only IP-based but also conventional RS-485-based home appliances.
