Smart home technologies promise to transform domestic comfort, convenience, security and leisure while also reducing energy use. But delivering on these potentially conflicting promises depends on how they are adopted and used in homes. This book starts by developing a new analytical framework for understanding smart homes and their users. Drawing on a range of new empirical research combining both qualitative and quantitative data, the book then explores how smart home technologies are perceived by potential users, how they can be used to link domestic energy use to common daily activities, how they may (or may not) be integrated into everyday life by actual users, and how they serve to change the nature of control within households and the home. The book concludes by synthesising a range of evidence-based insights, and posing a series of challenges for industry, policy, and research that need addressing if a smart home future is to be realised. Researchers will find this book provides useful insights into this fast-growing field

The paper describes the cost effectiveness of Smart Homes, also called Intelligent Homes, and compares the economical factor between these and regular households by the example of a typical Austrian household. While Smart Homes become more and more important due to improvements of life quality and safety, this paper proves the environmental factor of the technology. At the beginning of the paper, the characteristics of a Smart Home will be shown and analysed. Advantages and disadvantages will be matched to determine an energy factor with which it is possible to compare regular households with Smart Homes. To make the comparison possible and lifelike, a variety of households in different Austrian provinces will be stated and their energy consumption will be defined. Furthermore, to make the information more comprehensible for the reader, the gained knowledge will be compared with specific energy costs of some Austrian energy providers.

Sensor Technology For Smart Homes written by Juan Ye and has been published by MDPI this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2021-04-21 with Technology & Engineering categories.
This Special Issue presents the recent advances in sensor technologies for smart homes, including fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors for detecting the presence and number of occupants, the Internet of things for monitoring CO2 concentration, and designing a novel eye-tracking system for monitoring and controlling a smart home, and infrared thermal sensors for fall detection. Such new explorations are pushing the boundary of sensing technologies and, thus, will have more profound implications for the future smart home. Advanced machine learning and data mining algorithms have been proposed to address sensor failure, appliance identification, and human activity recognition in a home environment. These results will enable a promising, sustainable deployment of sensing technologies. A novel multi-agent gamification system is proposed for managing tasks between household members and between families, which demonstrate another dimension of future smart home application. This Special Issue concludes with a review on sensors for human activity recognition. This work paves the roadmap for deploying smart home systems in different socioeconomic contexts. The whole Special Issue has significantly helped to shape our understanding of the strength, implications, and barriers of deploying long-term, sustainable, sensor technologies for smart homes.
