1 Brian Bowman, Reid Erekson, Stephen Larew, Will McGrath, Home Kinection

2 Project Overview 5 separate PCBs (4 module boxes and 1 control board) Each PCB has different requirements based on function. All Communicate wirelessly

3 Commercial Products X10 – Powerline Communication – Simple – Unsightly – Wall Wart – No Status Indication or manual control. – Inexpensive ($20)

4 Commercial Products Lutron RadioRA – Proprietary Wireless protocol – Integrated in Wall Box (Not easiest retrofitting) – Expensive ($95) – Fun Colors – Manual Operation and Status

5 Commercial Products Roku – Simple – Fanless – Status Light – Compact

6 Packaging Specifications Dimmer: – 4” x 6” PCB – Tall enough for SSR and transformer – 2 power plugs – Rotary Encoder

7 Packaging Specifications HID: – 3” x 3” PCB – USB Interface

8 Packaging Specifications IR: – 3” x 3” PCB – DC Wall Wart Power

9 Packaging Specifications Shade: – 4” x 6” PCB – Room for 2 relays – Terminal Block Connectors

10 Packaging Specifications Control: – 3” x 3” PCB – Serial Interface – Motherboard in off the shelf mini-ITX case

11 Packaging Specifications Control: – 3” x 3” PCB – Serial Interface – Motherboard in off the shelf mini-ITX case

12 PCB Footprints Wireless: – Try to separate from power circuitry to reduce noise – Avoid Metal Enclosures Size: – Some large components like transformer, SSR – Leave enough room for headers and routing
