Begin
1- Describe inputs and outputs: Determine the required outputs (device control
signals) by identifying the input sources (sensors, user inputs).
2. Initial Setup: Install smart devices, such as security cameras, lighting
controls, and thermostats.
- Join devices (Wi-Fi, Zigbee, Z-Wave) to the Internet of Things network.
3. Data Collection - Gather information from sensors (light, motion, and
temperature) - Technologies: Sensors (light, motion, and temperature sensors)
4. Data Processing: Preprocessing (normalisation, cleansing)
- Use AI algorithms to gain insights and analysis
- Technologies: TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn; AI and machine learning
5. Decision Making - Determine the best course of action (climate control, energy
optimisation) based on AI analysis - Technologies: AI and Machine Learning
6. Device Control: Make decisions to operate smart devices (e.g., modify thermostat
settings, dim lights).
Technologies: IoT platforms (including Microsoft Azure IoT, Google Cloud IoT,
and Amazon IoT)
7. User Interaction - Turn on the user interface (voice assistants, mobile apps)
for manual control.
- Technologies: voice recognition (Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant), mobile app
development (React Native, Flutter)
8. Security Measures: Put security systems (monitoring, access control) into place.
- Technologies: AI-enabled surveillance cameras (object detection, facial
recognition), biometric authentication systems for access control, and smart locks.
9. Predictive Maintenance - Track the condition of devices and anticipate their
need for maintenance .
Technologies: IoT sensors for tracking device health, predictive maintenance
algorithms
10. feedback Loop: Compile information (performance measurements, user comments)
for ongoing improvement
- Technologies: Elasticsearch, Kibana, Apache Kafka, and Visualisation for Data
11. Testing and Validation - Examine the performance and functioning of the system;
verify against user requirements and use cases
12. Documentation: Describe the functionality, components, and architecture of the
system.
13. Installation - Install the system in a home or building and make sure it is
configured correctly and integrates with the current infrastructure
14. Observation and Maintenance
Create procedures for keeping an eye on the functionality and health of the
system. Carry out routine maintenance and updates.
