 SMART HOME

What Is a Smart Home?

A smart home refers to a convenient home setup where appliances and devices can be automatically
controlled remotely from anywhere with an internet connection using a mobile or other network device.
Devices in a smart home are interconnected through the internet, allowing the user to control functions
such as security access to the home, temperature, lighting, and a home theater remotely.

How Smart Homes Work

A smart home’s devices are connected with each other and can be accessed through one central point—
a smartphone, tablet, laptop, or game console. Door locks, televisions, thermostats, home monitors,
cameras, lights, and even appliances such as the refrigerator can be controlled through one home
automation system. The system is installed on a mobile or other networked device, and the user can
create time schedules for certain changes to take effect.

Smart home appliances come with self-learning skills so they can learn the homeowner’s schedules and
make adjustments as needed. Smart homes enabled with lighting control allow homeowners to reduce
electricity use and benefit from energy-related cost savings. Some home automation systems alert the
homeowner if any motion is detected in the home when they're away, while others can call the
authorities—police or the fire department—in case of imminent situations.

Once connected, services such as a smart doorbell, smart security system, and smart appliances are all
part of the internet of things (IoT) technology, a network of physical objects that can gather and share
electronic information.
Smart Home Systems
Smart homes can feature either wireless or hardwired systems—or both. Wireless systems are easier to
install. Putting in a wireless home automation system with features such as smart lighting, climate
control, and security can cost several thousand dollars, making it very cost-friendly.

The downside to wireless systems is you likely need strong Wi-Fi coverage and broadband
service throughout your entire house. This may require you to invest in range extenders or hardwired
wireless access points. Wireless smart home systems are generally more appropriate for smaller existing
homes or rental properties due to their smaller size.

Hardwired systems, on the other hand, are considered more reliable and are typically more difficult to
hack. A hardwired system can increase the resale value of a home. In addition, hardwired smart home
systems can easily be scaled; therefore, it is often the default method when designing a new build or
performing a major renovation.

There is a drawback—it's fairly expensive. Installing a luxury and hardwired smart system can cost
homeowners tens of thousands of dollars. In addition, you must have space for network hardware
equipment including ethernet cables.

How to Create a Smart Home

Heating
Smart home products now allow for greater control over heating devices including when products are
turned on, turned off, and controlled. Smart products may be armed with temperature or humidity
sensors to automatically turn on or off if certain criteria are met. This line of smart home innovations also
extends to air conditioners.

Lighting
Often with the use of a mobile phone, table, or custom remote specific to a product, lighting products
now enhance the capabilities of homeowners. Lights can be switched on and off, placed on a schedule, or
set to change based on sunrise or sunset times. Like some more traditional products, lights can often set
to change based on motion. Smart bulbs can communicate over Wi-Fi and display statistics or metrics to
your phone.

This lighting category may also contain smart home products that control or prevent light. Automatic
blinds may be installed and set to close based on sunrise schedules. Alternatively, electronic curtains
allow users to manage their blinds using a handheld device.
Audio/Visual
One of the more fun aspects of smart homes, many entertainment products are now heavily connected to
each other and can be controlled with a single remote. Television and speakers now have greater
capabilities to be played on command using applications, including being maintained on a schedule or
being voice-controllable.

Security
One of the most reasonable aspects of a smart home is the enhanced security capabilities. Many products
now have camera capabilities that track motion, capture video, or allow for live video feeds. This may be
installed to sync with a ringing doorbell or set to display on certain areas of your property. These videos
may allow for video-calling with the individual at your door, including audio capabilities.

Many smart homes are also refit with modern security kits. This includes motion sensor detectors when
individuals should not be home, home monitoring, notifications and alerts of suspicious behavior, and the
ability to lock doors or windows remotely using a phone.

Other
A very large section of smart homes relates to digital assistants or home hubs. These products are often
interacted with using your voice and can take commands, field questions, organize your calendar,
schedule conference calls, or provide alerts. Though not specifically related to one's home, these digital
assistants provide a broad range of controlling smart assets, their schedules, and their statuses.
Smart smoke and carbon monoxide detectors not only sound an alarm but can be synced to your phone
to alert you should you be away from your property. These devices can often be set up to send
emergency notifications to specified contacts.

Automated irrigation systems have had the ability to be programmed for a while. Now, smart irrigation
systems field climate and environmental conditions an factor those traits into existing water schedules.
Smart irrigation systems monitor moisture-related conditions and strive to conserve water.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Smart Homes

Pros
Installing a smart home technology system provides homeowners with convenience. Rather than
controlling appliances, thermostats, lighting, and other features using different devices, homeowners can
control them all using one device—usually a smartphone or tablet.

Since they're connected to a portable device, users can get notifications and updates on issues in their
homes. For instance, smart doorbells allow homeowners to see and communicate with people who come
to their doors even when they're not at home. Users can set and control the internal temperature,
lighting, and appliances as well.

For the cost of setting up the smart system, homeowners can benefit from significant cost savings.
Appliances and electronics can be used more efficiently, lowering energy costs.

Cons
While the smart home offers convenience and cost savings, there are still challenges. Security risks and
bugs continue to plague makers and users of the technology. Adept hackers, for example, can gain access
to a smart home's internet-enabled appliances. In October 2016, a botnet called Mirai infiltrated
interconnected devices of DVRs, cameras, and routers to bring down a host of major websites through
a denial of service attack, also known as a DDoS attack.

Measures to mitigate the risks of such attacks include protecting smart appliances and devices with a
strong password, using encryption when available, and only connecting trusted devices to one's network.

As noted above, the costs of installing smart technology can run anywhere from a few thousand dollars
for a wireless system to tens of thousands of dollars for a hardwired system. It's a heavy price to pay,
especially since there may be a steep learning curve to get used to the system for everyone in the
household.

Back to the future: History of smart home

It’s human nature to find ways that make everyday life easier and more pleasant. The area of “home-
automation” – in effect the predecessor of the smart home – was brought to life through technological
progress, in particular through the Internet and computer. Science fiction literature in the 1950s portrayed
the first visions of homes that are monitored and controlled fully automatically by machines. The 1999
Disney film “Smart House” was about household computers and the consequences when smart machines
take on a life of their own. And Disney proved to be unintentionally visionary in the part of the movie
where the house’s intelligent control unit develops the feeling of jealousy. In reality, it will likely be a few
years before machines can “generate” emotions – fortunately.
Scientists have already been working for more than 30 years on connecting home appliances and
automating their use. Yet it’s only been in the past 15 years that the issue of the smart home has aroused
broad public interest. The main reasons: Current challenges as a result of trends like an aging society,
greater environmental awareness and the related wish for a sustainable energy supply.
Increasing digitization and new means of enhancing convenience in our own four walls were further factors
that put the smart home at the center of public interest at the turn of the millennium.
The Fraunhofer inHaus Center, which was opened in Duisburg in 2001, is a lighthouse project in German-
speaking countries. The project involves exploring and testing new system solutions and products from the
smart home segment in a residential environment. “The House of the Present” in Munich showcased a
connected home with centrally controlled electronic processes from 2005 to 2011. The first T-Com House
from Deutsche Telekom in Berlin was opened to interested visitors in 2005. The focus of this model project
was on connecting various home appliances and controlling them by means of different input devices.

How is a home transformed into a smart home? The required components can be installed and configured
without any technical know-how. The following aspects should be taken into account in planning:

 An Internet connection and WiFi are required

 A smartphone or tablet are best suited for controlling and monitoring the devices
 A wireless network is modern, convenient and elegant, but transmission by cable is more secure
 Should the devices be programmable from the central control unit and interoperable, or is a
standalone solution enough?
 Are all the devices connected using the same wireless standard (e.g. WiFi)?
 Starter sets are ideal for beginners, but usually only cover a single area: either energy
efficiency,security or convenience
 The central control unit should be placed so that all the devices to be addressed are within its
radius
Conclusion:

Smart homes, using new revolutions in communication systems and AI, provide residential houses with
electrical power of a dual nature, i.e. as producer and consumer or ‘prosumer’. The energy-management
system includes many components that mainly depend on a suitable communication scheme to coordinate
between available sources, loads and users’ desire. Among many proposed communication systems, the
IoT has many advantages and was chosen in many studies. Besides the popularity of the IoT, it does not
need any special equipment installation and is compatible with many other communications protocols.

(NON-TECHNICAL)
 COMMUNICATION SKILLS
Communication skills refer to the ability to convey messages clearly and effectively in both verbal and non-
verbal ways. Communication is essential in our daily lives and is crucial for success in personal and
professional relationships. In this presentation, we will discuss the importance of communication skills,
why you need them, and the top ten communication skills.

Why do you need communication skills?

Effective communication skills are essential in all aspects of life, and especially in professional settings. The
ability to communicate clearly and effectively can help you succeed in your career, build better
relationships with people, and improve your personal life. Effective communication is important in
resolving conflicts, expressing your opinions and ideas, and building strong relationships with others.

Importance of Communication Skills:

Effective communication skills are important for several reasons. First, they help you build

strong relationships with others. When you communicate effectively, you can convey your

ideas, opinions, and feelings in a way that others can understand, which can help build trust

and respect. Second, communication skills are important in professional settings. They can

help you succeed in your career by improving your ability to collaborate with others,

negotiate, and resolve conflicts.

Third, communication skills can help you express yourself better. They can help you

articulate your thoughts and feelings more clearly, which can improve your overall well-being.

Fourth, communication skills can help you become a better listener. By actively listening to others, you can
understand their perspective and build stronger relationships.

The top ten communication skills are:

Eye contact:
Eye contact is a vital component of effective communication. It shows the speaker that you

are engaged and interested in the conversation. Maintaining eye contact with the speaker

demonstrates that you are paying attention and can help build trust.

Friendly body language:

Body language is a crucial aspect of effective communication. Open and friendly body

language can help you convey a sense of approachability, confidence, and empathy. This can

help build better relationships with people and establish rapport.

Be clear:
Clarity is key to effective communication. Be clear and concise in your messaging, and avoid

using jargon or technical terms that may be confusing to the listener. Use simple language

to ensure that your message is understood.

Give compliments:
Positive feedback can go a long way in building better relationships. Complimenting others

on their work or accomplishments can help build trust and improve teamwork.

Active listening:
Active listening is an essential communication skill. This involves paying attention to the

speaker and trying to understand their perspective. Active listening can involve asking

questions, summarizing what the speaker has said, and providing feedback.

Verbal communication:
Verbal communication involves speaking clearly and concisely. Use simple language, speak

with confidence, and avoid using filler words such as "um" or "like".

Nonverbal communication:
Nonverbal communication involves using body language and facial expressions to convey

messages. Use eye contact, hand gestures, and facial expressions to convey emotions,

attitudes, and intentions.

Written communication:
Effective written communication is crucial in professional setting. This involves being clear

and concise in your messaging, using proper grammar and spelling, and using a professional

tone

Conflict resolution:
Conflict resolution is an important communication skill that involves finding solutions to

disagreements. This involves actively listening to the other person, understanding their

perspective, and working towards a mutually beneficial resolution.

Cultural competence:
Cultural competence involves understanding and respecting different cultural norms and

beliefs. This involves being aware of cultural differences and adapting your communication

style accordingly.

Ways to Improve Communication Skills:

There are several ways to improve your communication skills. Here are some tips:
1.Practice Active Listening:

Make an effort to listen actively to others. Focus on what they are saying, ask questions, and

try to understand their perspective.

2.Watch Your Body Language:

Be aware of your body language and facial

3.expressions.

Use open and friendly body language to convey a sense of approachability and empathy.

3.Use Simple Language:

Use simple language and avoid using jargon or technical terms that may be confusing to the listener.

4.Be Clear and Concise:

Be clear and concise in your messaging. Avoid rambling or going off on tangents.

5.Practice Written Communication:

Practice your written communication skills by writing emails, memos, or reports. Use

proper grammar and spelling, be clear and concise, and use a professional tone.

What is effective communication?

Effective communication is the process of exchanging ideas, thoughts, opinions, knowledge, and data so that
the message is received and understood with clarity and purpose. When we communicate effectively, both
the sender and receiver feel satisfied.
Communication occurs in many forms, including verbal and non-verbal, written, visual, and listening. It can
occur in person, on the internet (on forums, social media, and websites), over the phone (through apps, calls,
and video), or by mail.

For communication to be effective, it must be clear, correct, complete, concise, and compassionate. We
consider these to be the 5 C’s of communication, though they may vary depending on who you’re asking.

While the effectiveness of communication can be difficult to measure, its impact is hard to deny. According
to one study, surveyed companies in the United States and United Kingdom with at least 100,000 employees
lost $62.4 million per year on average due to poor communication. On the flip side, companies led by
effective communicators had nearly 50 percent higher total returns to shareholders over companies with less
effective communicators at the helm.

Benefits of effective communication

The benefits of communication effectiveness can be witnessed in the workplace, in an educational setting,
and in your personal life. Learning how to communicate well can be a boon in each of these areas.

In the workplace, effective communication can help you:

 Manage employees and build teams
 Grow your organization more rapidly and retain employees
 Benefit from enhanced creativity and innovation
  Build strong relationships and attract more opportunities for you or your organization.

In your personal life, effective communication can lead to:

 Improved social, emotional, and mental health
 Deeper existing connections
 New bonds based on trust and transparency
 Better problem–solving and conflict resolution skills.

COMMUNICATION OCCURS BETWEEN HUMANS THROUGH:

SPEECH

Evolution of the brain differentiated humans from animals, as among other things it allowed humans to
master a very efficient form of communication – speech.

SYMBOLS

The imperfection of speech, which nonetheless allowed easier dissemination of ideas and stimulated
inventions, eventually resulted in the creation of new forms of communications, improving both the range
at which people could communicate and the longevity of the information. All of those inventions were
based on the key concept of the symbol: a conventional representation of a concept.

CAVE PAINTINGS

The oldest known symbols created with the purpose of communication through time are the cave
paintings, a form of rock art, dating to the Upper Paleolithic. Just as the small child first learns to draw
before it masters more complex forms of communication, so homo sapiens’ first attempts at passing
information through time took the form of paintings.

PICTOGRAMS

A pictogram (pictograph) is a symbol representing a concept, object, activity, place or event by illustration.
Pictography is a form of proto-writing whereby ideas are transmitted through drawing.

IDEOGRAMS

Pictograms, in turn, evolved into ideograms, graphical symbols that represent an idea. Their ancestors, the
pictograms, could represent only something resembling their form: therefore a pictogram of a circle could
represent a sun, but not concepts like ‘heat’, ‘light’, ‘day’ or ‘Great God of the Sun’. Ideograms, on the
other hand, could convey more abstract concepts, so that for example an ideogram of two sticks can mean
not only ‘legs’ but also a verb ‘to walk’.
WRITING

The oldest-known forms of writing were primarily logographic in nature, based on pictographic and
ideographic elements. Most writing systems can be broadly divided into three categories: logographic,
syllabic and alphabetic (or segmental); however, all three may be found in any given writing system in
varying proportions, often making it difficult to categorise a system uniquely.

Communication can often be improved by identifying the appropriate media. Written, verbal or electronic
methods, while impersonal, are fast and can be effective. Meetings, interviews and video conferencing
require personal, face to face communication and thus interpersonal skills. Telephone and public address
systems should be used only where personal communication methods are difficult. Written
communication is very often the most suitable and clearest means of communication and can take many
forms: memoranda; occasional or annual reports (fundamental in communicating accounting information);
forms; notices; house journals and other forms of standard documentation such as rules and procedures,
manuals and job descriptions.

Visual communication is a powerful communication media and is often overlooked. Charts, slides, videos
or films provide an immediate and clear message. Electronic means of communication are increasingly
becoming more relevant. Document imaging, telex, fax, the Internet and e-mail are instantaneous and
provide clear and fast communication possibilities. The type of communication and the medium used will
depend to a greater or lesser extent on organizational structure. This will in turn be a function of the
product or service and its environment. There are many forms of communication within an organization,
formal and informal. Generally, in formal organizations information flows through quite clear channels and
in defined directions. Traditionally, the direction of the three main information flows is downward, upward
and lateral.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, effective communication skills are essential for success in both personal and

professional settings. The top ten communication skills are eye contact, friendly body

language, being clear, giving compliments, active listening, verbal and nonverbal

communication, written communication, conflict resolution, and cultural competence.

Improving your communication skills can help you build better relationships, establish trust

, and achieve your goals. Remember to be clear, concise, and empathetic in your messaging

to communicate effective.

I. Read the passage given below and answer thefollowingquestions. (10 x 1 =10)

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a tiny robot which looks
like a thread or a worm and is designed to crawl through the blood vessels inside the brain. The robot
is magnetically controlled and it is made for gliding through the narrow, winding pathways, such as the
labyrinthine vasculature of the brain.

The aim of this robotic thread is to create a tool by which the doctors can deliver clot reducing therapies
to patients who have blockages and lesions, such as the ones that occur in aneurysms and stroke. The
wormlike thread has been developed by Xuanhe Zhao, associate professor of mechanical engineering
and of civil and environmental engineering at MIT along with lead author Yoonho Kim, a graduate
student in MIT’s Department of Mechanical Engineering.

“Stroke is the number five cause of death and a leading cause of disability in the United States. If acute
stroke can be treated within the first 90 minutes or so, patients’ survival rates could increase
significantly,” Zhao said in a statement. “If we could design a device to reverse blood vessel blockage
within this ‘golden hour,’ we could potentially avoid permanent brain damage. That’s our hope.”

The latest research combines the expertise of hydrogels and biocompatible materials made mostly of
water. It also includes 3-D printed materials which are controlled with the help of magnetism. These
can crawl, jump, and even catch a ball, simply by following the direction of a magnet. The worm-like
robot at its core is made from a nickel-titanium alloy called “nitinol,” which is both bendy andspringy.

The robotic thread is coated with a rubbery paste, embedded with particles to give it its magnetic
properties. The MIT researchers demonstrated the precision of the robotic worm by using a large
magnet to steer the thread through an obstacle course of small rings. This has been described as being
similar to guiding a thread through the eye of a needle.

The scientists have also tested this magnetic worm through a silicone replica of major blood vessels of
the human brain. The silicone replica was modeled after the CT scans of an actual patient’s brain. The
team of scientists filled the silicone vessels with a liquid simulating the viscosity of blood.

This research project was partly funded by the Office of Naval Research, the MIT Institute for Soldier
Nanotechnologies, and the National Science Foundation (NSF).
