Wireless Domotic: An Enabling Platform for Granular Intelligence

We describe a wireless platform for implementing domotic applications drawn from a fuzzy rule system. The design of its architecture hits three targets: i) complete scalability with the addition of new devices into the domotic system, ii) full operability by the user who is the arbiter of any operational option, and iii) robotic controllability based on a series of environmental sensors and an autonomous rule system under the total supervision of the user. The hardware counterpart is based on a series of micro-transmitters connecting the house devices to the platform through Z-Wave or wired protocols and smartphones as end-user terminals. In the paper we describe how the entire platform has been implemented in our lab and provide some considerations deriving from its early operations.
