Standards-based User Interface Technology for Universal Home Domination

摘要

Based on AIAP-URC and OSGi standards, the authors developed a home control platform named SUIT which is suitable for any kind of home appliances and remote consoles. The SUIT platform provides an easy but standardized environment for both appliance and remote console manufacturers to develop their products. In addition, manufacturers are able to update software on the home gateway remotely and dynamically. In this paper, an IM remote console is implemented to demonstrate SUIT platform. Moreover, the products, including InsteOn, X10, UPnP, and IR Robot are developed successfully on the SUIT gateway.
