Final Year Project Home automation with Linux MCE and a Nokia 770 internet tablet Damien Lee, 4ECE 1 st April, 2009 Project Supervisor : Dr. John Breslin Co-Supervisor : Prof. Gearóid Ó Laighin

Project Brief   The aim of this project is to control a number of household devices/appliances using Linux MCE and a Nokia 770 internet tablet.   Research of various technologies and methods of home automation.   Linux Media Centre Edition (MCE) to act as the central home automation software and control electronic devices in the home.   Extend the system to enable control from an external remote control.   Allow event handling within the system

Home system Core External Device Router Remote control Bluetooth connection Z-wave protocol

 Comparison of Bluetooth, Zigbee & Z-wave Z-wave chosen - Mesh Network - Faster response times - Prolonged battery life  Wireless communication protocol  Operates at frequency of 868 MHz - simple control signals  Two z-wave devices bought for this project.

Z-wave protocol System core Z-wave transmitter (USB dongle) Z-wave receiver (Lamp module) External device (Lamp) Z-wave USB Transmitter Connects with the Linux MCE Core Transmits/ receives control data to/from external device. Z-wave Lamp module Connects with the external device (Lamp) Transmits/receives control data to/from Core

Linux MCE Install stages AV wizard Launch Manager Home setup

Linux MCE Installed system Orbiter - Interface between the user and the Core Further options - changes to the system

Admin website Linux MCE Administration website Run by the Core. Complete control of system. Allows the user to alter the system. Setup set-up for unique home environment. Control of ALERTS Admin website access User access only - Core’s IP Address

Orbiter Nokia 770 as remote control of the Core Enabled device as remote on Admin website Applied Bug fixes to Nokia -WLAN memory corruption -Enabled swap MS true type core fonts Plutohome software install files Orbiter Log file - Monitors state of Orbiter

Modify system Toothpick Programmable in C. Not compatible with Linux MCE. Scenarios and Alerts -Scenarios Allows user to adjust system to suit various needs in various rooms -Alerts Activate when some criterion is met.

Conclusion Further Research Orbiter functioning on the Nokia 770 Modulation of Audio devices Home automation system Capabilities Alternate systems - Linux MCE favoured Cost Expensive. Z-wave devices.
