ABSTRACT
English – Current control systems for smart home devices such as Amazon Echo rely primarily on central data processing on the company’s own servers. Since smart home devices collect potentially sensitive data, this often leads to privacy concerns on the part of users. A privacy-friendly alternative is to process smart home data locally, which would further protect smart home systems from hacking attacks. To this end, in an iterative “human-in-the-loop” process, we developed LOKI, an interface that enables control of a smart home using local information processing. In addition, LOKI provides the option to specify certain routines, enabling task-based control that provides a more natural interaction with smart home devices than device-based control.
Deutsch – Aktuelle Steuerungssysteme für Smart Home-Geräte wie Amazon Echo setzen vorwiegend auf eine zentrale Datenverarbeitung auf den unternehmenseigenen Servern. Da Smart Home-Geräte potenziell sensitive Daten erfassen, führt dies häufig zu Privatsphärebedenken auf Seiten der Nutzenden. Eine Privatsphäre-freundliche Alternative besteht in der lokalen Verarbeitung der Smart Home Daten, welche die Smart Home-Systeme zusätzlich vor Hacking-Angriffen schützen würde. Zu diesem Zweck haben wir in einem iterativen “Human-in-the-Loop”-Prozess LOKI entwickelt, ein Interface, welches die Steuerung eines smarten Haushalts mittels lokaler Informationsverarbeitung ermöglicht. Zusätzlich bietet LOKI die Option, bestimmte Routinen festzulegen, was eine Aufgaben-basierte Steuerung ermöglicht, welche eine natürlichere Interaktion mit den Smart Home-Geräten ermöglicht als eine Geräte-basierte Steuerung.
