Home control system for the social integration of disabled people. Póster

Abstract

In the last years many system have been designed to facilitate the integration of disabled people, particularly those with severe problems of movement, caused in many cases by brain paralysis. The approaches that have been taken have supplied valid solutions but always at the cost of being based outside integrated, commercial and flexible systems. Our aim in this project has been the design and development of an intelligent home control system (control of the house enviroment), accessible to people with different grades of disability and to those who retain all their inherent functions the called "design for everyone". To this end, a demostration model of the system has been designed, which combines all the basic control functions, and which has permitted the development and debugging of the necessary software and hardware elements in our centre of investigation.
