Abstract
To take advantage of the recent advances in computer science, control, biomedical, and communication, an experimental project of MyHome is conducted. The objective is to explore innovation technology for future design and implementation of smart homes. This paper reports on current status of the MyHome project, which comprises of a local residential server, MyServer, and remote access interface, MyIcon. By clicking the icon, a user has information about his or her home as a whole at the finger tip. Information related to: alarm security, inventory tracking, facility management, and family members are all to be available through internet access. Design philosophy and proposed architecture are presented. Current technology related to the proposed architecture is surveyed before the ongoing status is reported. Scenarios of full function are also sketched1.
