Against what norman has written in his book

• According to norman he has stated that
• its a stupid idea to implement such a device
  that controles all the devices in the house
• Lets think when we enter CA we see the door
  opens automaticaly and there are bluetooth
  device like headphone which has a specific
  profile in it
• It s not too hard to integrate a bluetooth device
  to control the opening of the door

i-control

• Its a technolegy in which we use the simple
  existing systems to control the
• devices far away form us
• Main advantages
• there is no money spend on developing the
  technolegy ,but use the existing one.....

Simple example
Controling device
Bluetooth controle
Garrage door
sensor

More technical details

• The first part is the device discovery protocol,
  which is an extension of universal plug and play
  protocol to cover the hetrogenious networks.
• We use e-mails to take advantage of the security
  infrastructure and it present a familiar
  interface with the user, the home based server
  which periodically dial to the ISP and check the
  mails. If it is a command to the home automation
  network, then they will try to do the work that
  is to be done.

Design details

• Even just sms or e-mail form the phone is enough
  to inplement this technolegy
• In order to make a difrence we developed this i
  control interface ,
• This is just a interface between email client and
  user
