3. Introduction
Home automation is the residential extension of "building automation".
It is automation of the:
Home
Housework or
Household activity.
Home automation may include centralized control:
Lighting of entire house
HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning)
Appliances and
Other systems (Like Home Weather Station, digital receptionist, etc)
Home Automation (HA) provide improved convenience, comfort, energy
efficiency and security.
4. Bringing the Future Home
Automate chores such as watering your lawn, opening and closing
drapes, controlling your lights and appliances — even controlling your
electric water heater
Use motion sensors to turn on floodlights and cameras outside your
home. Or turn on lights indoors as you walk from room to room, create
an automatic doorbell, and more.
Use water sensors to inform you of leaking plumbing, both minor or
major, while you’re at home or away for the day or on vacation. (Why
not have your computer call you to let you know?)
Control your lights and appliances remotely via the Internet or a
telephone
Remotely adjust your thermostat so you can warm up your home before
you get there.
5. Bringing the Future Home (Contd.)
Zone your heat and automatically adjust it to make my home comfortable
in the areas that we’re using, and energy efficient in those areas that we aren’t.
Set up a home surveillance system by using webcams.
Keep your eye on your home remotely via webcams and the Internet.
Set up your computer to alert you to storms in your area or any area
you specify by e-mailing you or calling your cell phone or pager.

14. Software's
Linux (as a server)
Linux is an open source and free os. We use Linux os as a server. We can
customize linux kernel and make work for new devices.
Mister House (Web Interface)
MH is written entirely in Perl. It has a rather strange Object Oriented
method of coding because MH writes some of it's Perl code at startup.
Plenty of examples exist. Mail lists are very friendly and supportive.
Heyu (Control X10 Devive )
Heyu is a command-line-based program that you can use to control your
home’s lights and appliances via X10 devices. It’s written in the C
computer language. You can, among other things, use Heyu to store a
schedule of events and macros in the CM11A’s memory, which it can
execute even when not connected to the computer. In Chapter 13, you
build a starter X10 kit by using Heyu.
