Institute of Integrated Sensor Systems Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology Smart Homes, Intelligent Kitchens, Sensate Floors - Ambient Intelligence Abhaya Chandra K. June, 2008 Prof. Dr.-Ing. Andreas Knig Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Ambient Intelligence There are two different kinds of interfaces that are being developed with totally different goals ,yet being complementary . 1. Virtual Reality 2. Ambient Intelligence While VR allows user to interact with a computer-simulated environment, be it a real or imagined one, The goal of Ambient Intelligence is to bring the computer into the user's world, rather than force the user to go inside the computer. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Ambient Intelligence This Seminar will focus on Ambient Intelligence Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Ambient Intelligence Ambient intelligence is a post-desktop model of human-computer interaction in which information processing has been thoroughly integrated into everyday objects and activities. As opposed to the desktop paradigm, in which a single user consciously engages a single device for a specialized purpose, someone "using" Ambient intelligence engages many computational devices and systems simultaneously, in the course of ordinary activities, and may not necessarily even be aware that they are doing so. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Objective The Objective of this seminar is to find the latest research works in this field done by various research groups. The seminar will also try to determine if the research groups prefer off-the- shelf components or integrated components. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig What is a Smart Home? Ellen returns home after a long day's work. At the front door she is recognized by an intelligent surveillance camera, the door alarm is switched off, and the door unlocks and opens. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig What is a Smart Home? When she enters the hall the house map indicates that her husband Peter is at an art fair in Paris, and that her daughter Charlotte is in the children's playroom. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig What is a Smart Home? A panel at the living room shows her climate information in various parts of the house Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Why Smart homes? There can be many reasons for having a Smart home, But the most important reasons would be 1)Safety and Security 2)Assisted Living for the Older people 3) Luxury ( Home of the future) Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Safety And Security Safety and security form the basic necessities of the present culture, So this part has become a part of infrastructure of most homes at present. Smoke detectors are available in the market from 10 euros to 150 euros . Similarly burglar Alarms are also available in the market. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Assisted Living The AAL seeks to address the needs of the ageing population by making life easier for them. There are many different types of research going on in this field, Some of them are mention here One method adopted is to continuosly update the status of the persons health to the family doctor. This is done in two main steps, The person is remided to take his tests by the set of communication devices which are linked together and upon taking the tests the results are sent to the Clinic. If the person has a sudden problem, The doctor can easily assist as he has access to the health trend of his patient. By University of Illinois Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Assisted Living PAUL : Personal Assistant unit for living [1] PAUL collects RAWsensor data and uses various algorithms to detect any potential danger related to health domain. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Assisted Living Sensor Technologies for AL Systems Integrated Health Monitoring and Emergency Call System [2] [3] To define risk incidents the system should rely on detecting vital signs changes. This way the system would be transparent without requiring any special skill from the user. From a medical point of view, its well-known that vital signs (temperature, pulse and blood pressure) are strongly altered after an accident. For example, if somebody falls down breaks a bone and loses their consciousness, due to the need of sending more blood to the brain, the body temperature and pulse are increased quickly. Through proper monitoring of those constants, it is possible to detect what has happened and call to notify the event Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Assisted Living Mainstreaming on Ambient Intelligence :[4] A workshop by Technological University of Koice A paper : Searching for Temporal Patterns in AmI Sensor Data The main innovation of the MonAMI project lies in demonstrating how a complex mix of technologies, many of them so far only validated under laboratory conditions can be brought together in a socially and economically viable way to facilitate inclusive access for elderly and disabled citizens. Although the project does not focus on technology development, the required adaptation and integration work as well as the experience to be gained from real world deployment will result in significant technical innovations. This is particularly true for the field of Ambient Intelligence which is so far very much limited to laboratory demonstrators and experiments. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Assisted Living Wearable computing [5] The Wearable Computing Group is focusing on miniaturization of digital systems, computer architectures for wearable applications, wired and wireless communication networks in clothing, sensor systems and signal processing. In future this technology can be used for continuous health monitoring.

How about having a mailbox that senses when mail arrives? Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury Samsung Hauzen [6] Samsung has already realized the importance of smart homes. Samsung has a research interest for smart living. According to it Smart living is where the house actually understands what the user wants Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury Philips Research [7] [8] Philips moves on a slightly different line , Its more interested in improving the experience of using products in day to day life. ExperienceLab is a unique laboratory where consumer tested innovation is top priority. The lab, located at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, provides the perfect setting for the discovery of the practical, social and psychological implications of upcoming technologies. => An image of a philips product which uses backlight to create an ambience depending on the surroundings Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury Philips Research Intelligent Personal Care Environment The intelligent personal-care environment introduces Ambient Intelligence in the bathroom. Based on personal preferences it can start playing different applications on an interactive mirror display. The mirror display is the central interaction with the bathroom; not only can it be used for viewing the media, already available in other places of the house (TV, Internet, video, etc.), it also interacts with the devices regularly used in the bathroom. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury Philips Research One of the key characteristics of devices in an Ambient Intelligence environment is that they must know the context in which they are being used. Screens, for example, become very general-purpose devices, capable of displaying high quality video and graphics when needed, or transforming themselves into transparent windows or mirrors. To configure themselves correctly without user intervention, they must know what they are being used for. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury World of Mushroom : [9] An interesting approach to ambient assisted living where sensors are called mushrooms. NTT communication Laboratories Japan. Here the different departments are trying to come together under the umbrella of Ambient intelligence to create a smart home Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury SERCHO [10]: The SerCHo Showroom, located at the Ernst Reuter Platz in Berlin, implements a fully networked home environment infrastructure. In this location, the automation of intra-domestic processes in the form of Smart Home services can be developed under real conditions, and can be further examined for content, operability and usability. The SerCHo Testbed integrates a multiplicity of heterogeneous technologies in the intelligent home and creates a holistic solution for a modern living concept. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury University of Madrid :[11] Ambient intelligence in madrid We have converted our laboratory in a real living room, and, we are using it as a testbench for testing our smart room developments Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury University of Madrid : (contd.) These include five control devices for five different lights (one fluorescent, two floor lights and two dimmable lights), a door opening mechanism, several smart identity cards, a radio tuner, a TV set, microphones, speakers, an IP video camera and two flat screens. These sensors and devices are connected to an network and the combination of these devices are used to create a smart environment Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury DFKI [12] Here its more about Retail. In IRL we conduct tests in a large number of different fields all connected to intelligent shopping consultants, which range from a virtual assistant responsible for matters of dieting and allergies, over a digital sommelier, to personalized cross and up selling, smart items in digital product memories as a further development of the RFID technology, indoor positioning and navigation as well as new logistics concepts, to see whether they are suitable for everyday life and prove to be useful for the clients. Intelligent Fridge Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Smart Homes - Luxury University of Florida: Gator Tech house A Programmable Pervasive Space [13] [14] In this laboratory-house, our research and development is designed to assist older persons in maximizing independence and maintaining a high quality of life. Many first-generation pervasive computing systems lack the ability to evolve as new technologies emerge or as an application domain matures. Programmable pervasive spaces, such as the Gator Tech Smart House, offer a scalable, cost- effective way to develop and deploy extensible smart technologies. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen Among the various places in a Smart home, The kitchen is the most interesting and has attracted the attention of many researchers. A kitchen can be one of the most dangerous places at home, So Safety, Security, luxury come hand in hand here. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen Intelligent Spoon [15] This project aims to introduce computing into traditional culinary utensils. It seeks to provide information, in an integrated manner, about any food the spoon is in contact with, and to offer suggestions to improve the food. The spoon is equipped with sensors that measure temperature, acidity, salinity, and viscosity. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen Heat Sink : [21] Colored LEDs powered by a solid-state microcircuit on the tap project colored light into the stream of water to communicate its temperature to users. Red and blue are commonly used for hot and cold. This is presently a commercially available product Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen SEE Sink Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen See Sink [21] : Todays automated faucets turn off so that we dont soil them on the controls or leave the water running. However these systems are only useful for hand washing because they only work with single-temperature and volume of water. What if you need to fill a pot with water, or clean lettuce with cold water. See Sink is a prototype of a sink that can interpret a variety of tasks being performed by the user to provide useful hands-free control of water temperature and flow. A CCD camera mounted under the faucet continually observes the contents of the sink. Using image recognition [C++ program using Microsoft Vision SDK Library], a computer controls the water temperature and flow based on the type of object in the sink, its size and the length of time it stays. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen Up Down Sink [21] : The up-down sink uses a camera to find a persons head and automatically adjusts to the proper height. After use, the sink returns to its universally accessible height. In combination with an undercut in the basin, the up-down sink is a handicap-accessible sink that can be comfortably used by tall persons, children and seated individuals. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen The Kitchen as a Graphical User Interface [20] : Everyday objects can become computer interfaces by the overlay of digital information. This paper describes scenarios and implementations in which imagery is digitally painted on the objects and spaces of a kitchen. Five augmented physical interfaces were designed to orient and inform people in the tasks of cleaning, cooking and accessing information: Information Table, Information Annotation of Kitchen, HeatSink, Spatial Definition, and Social Floor. Together, these interfaces augment the entire room into a single graphical user interface Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen Smart Kitchen NTU [16] : Enabling Nutrition-Aware Cooking in a Smart Kitchen A smart kitchen that can enhance the traditional meal preparation and cooking process by raising awareness of the nutrition facts in food ingredients that go into a meal. The goal is to promote healthy cooking. Our smart kitchen is augmented with sensors to detect cooking activities and provides digital feedbacks to users about nutritional information on the used food ingredients. LCD Display Smart stove Smart Cabinet Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen IBM Smart Kitchen [39] : For a small expense, merchandisers can put simple metallic tags on their products that the countertop will sense. Any tagged item becomes "visible" to the system interface, in that the system senses the encoded tag data, plus information that describes the item's state. The kitchen counters are lined with an array of pervasive computing devices Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen The semantic cookbook [40] : It records the cooking of the user and replicates it , So the cooking process can be repeated by another user in a similar way. This is done by capturing the users cooking on video Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen GEs Kitchen of the future [17] Refrigerator A sensor knows what has been placed in the unit and updates an electronic list of all contents. The unit uses this information to assist the consumer by not only offering an inventory of foods available but also by working with the inventory from the pantry to suggest menus. The sensor also knows an item's relative position and will automatically adjust local atmospheric conditions (temperature and humidity) for optimal food preservation. Advanced aero-gel and vacuum panel insulation afford thinner walls creating more room for what consumers want to store with greater efficiency. Organic light-emitting diode technology (OLED) evenly distributes lighting and saves space. Speedcook Oven Bright halogen light delivers oven-quality food up to eight times faster than a conventional oven. A sensor recognizes pre-packaged foods and automatically selects the right cooking time and levels for fast, no-touch cooking. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen GEs Kitchen of the future Multi-Technology Oven Microwave, thermal and convection energies combine to cook food better and faster. Based on a menu selection, the oven automatically pre-heats. A thermo- scan of the oven shows which areas of food are at proper temperature. Waste heat is used to heat water for washing dishes. Slide-Out Cooktop The cooktop features sensing technologies that sense where a pan is placed and optimize the burner size for efficiency. Boiling sensors sound an alert if liquids have boiled away. A self-cleaning feature activates upon retraction. Ionizing Vent The slide-out vent will be used as a downdraft, eliminating smoke and odors and, with the use of ionizing HEPA filters, will release clean air back into the room. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Intelligent Kitchen GEs Kitchen of the future Water System Clean water will be purified via ultraviolet light that ensures that water is free of bacteria without using chemicals. Pure water and ice are available through the refrigerator, and instant hot water is available on demand. The system will monitor water quality as it enters the house and will communicate with the consumer should there be a problem. The water system will eliminate tastes, odors, color, bacteria and chemical contaminants from the water. Dishwasher Water for kitchen cleanup is heated through thermo-waste created by the wall oven. Detergent is loaded in bulk once per year, and dispensed via algorithms to minimize the cleaning agents in wastewater. Grey water created though dish cleaning is reprocessed for use in other areas of the home and garden. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate Floors In an Intelligent kitchen environment A Sensitive floor may be highly efficient for safety and security, A kitchen is the place where most fires start. A sensitive floor can be used for the detecting the absence of a person when the food is overcooked and the object can be switched off, Or the floor can detect the presence of a child and the system can take precautionary measures. Though it makes sensitive floor attractive the cost and resolution also play a big part in the design. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors Sensate floors There are many different ways of creating a sensate floor 1) Large-area force-sensitive resistors 2) Optical techniques 3) Measuring the change in capacitance 4) Grid of shielded cable with a piezoelectric copolymer Each of these have certain advantages and disadvantages, We will first look at some ways by which these sensors are used. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors A Large Area Force Sensor for Smart Skin Applications [33] The sensing mechanism is based on the novel contact piezoresistive effect. Furthermore, the sensors resolution, size and shape can be easily tailored to the applications requirements A smart skin embedded in the floor can be used to identify people by analyzing their footstep force profiles [x]. Moreover, a sensor that covers the whole floor area would be able to locate and track the position of multiple users in a smart home. Such a smart home can automatically adapt its local environment to the users preferences such as ambient light, music, temperature etc. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors Figures showing the circuit and Resolution of the smart skin sensor Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors An inexpensive scanning laser rangefinder Though here a WALLis mentioned as a surface, Similar techniques are applied to floors too, The problem being the change in transparency over time. A scanning laser rangefinder at one corner of the display to determine the polar (r, ) coordinates of hands in a plane above the projection surface Laser rangefinders are commercially available devices, used for survey, robotic, and military applications, But still considerably expensive Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors A Textile Based Capacitive Pressure Sensor [37] The system is composed of a distributed passive array of capacitors, as sketched in fig.1, (i.e. an array where no active elements such as transistors are involved), whose capacitance varies according to the pressure exerted over a fabric surface, as well as an electronic system that collects and computes the subsequent capacitance variations. The system produces an image of the pressure field, providing both information on the area touching the surface of the sensor and on the pressure exerted. The emphasis in this solution is on detection of small pressures (e.g. light stroking) being applied over a relatively wide area Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors Textile Sensor Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors IBM : A grid of shielded cable, similar to standard coaxial wire but with a piezoelectric copolymer used for the inner insulation, is placed on the floor(spaced at a 4-inch pitch) The piezoelectric material produces a voltage (in the 1-5 volt range if terminated with a high impedance) when the wire is stepped o(proportional to foot pressure) Our current setup uses a grid of 16 32 wires at a 4-inch pitch below a 6 10 foot trapezoidal segment of carpet Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors A Pressure Sensing Floor for Interactive Media Applications [24] By measuring the pressure of a user interacting with the system, this device is able to provide real-time knowledge about both the location of the performer on the floor as well as the amount and distribution of force being exerted on the floor. This system has been designed to closely integrate and synchronize with external systems including marker-based motion capture systems, audio-sensing equipment and video-sensing technology, thus allowing for robust multimodal sensing of a subject in the integrated environment. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors Cost Effective Immersive Room with Pressure sensing Floor [25] This paper proposes the architecture of a pressure sensing floor divided in rigid tiles. The system is based on a network of flexible pad pressure sensors, used under all tile corners, connected to special local data acquisition circuits. Signals captured by the sensor units are transmitted to a system controller that process, display and store the information received. The proposed architecture was applied in an interactive room with a 64 tiles floor, providing a network weight measuring system that allows detecting, recording and tracking the movement of objects or people over the sensitive area. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors Monitoring Movement Behavior by means of a Large Area Proximity Sensor Array in the Floor [26] This paper describes an innovative sensor system which can detect and track people in a room by means of an array of capacitive sensors beneath the floor covering. By combining cutting-edge technology from the domains of capacitive sensing, wireless data transmission, interconnecting technology between textiles and microelectronics and high level data processing it is possible to support various groundbreaking applications in the domains of Ambient Assisted Living, energy saving, comfort, marketing, healthcare and security Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors ISAfloor: a high resolution floor sensor with 3D visualization and multimedia interface capability [27] A 4.x4. prototype floor sensor that employs densely arranged force sensing resistors has been developed to provide real time data of activity. With an active area of 3.x3. the sensor has 2.4. inter sensor resolution. The focus of this work is to design a platform with sensor resolution large enough to show the pressure distribution under a users feet in real time. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors The Design of a Pressure Sensing Floor for Movement-Based Human Computer Interaction[28] This paper addresses the design of a large area, high resolution, networked pressure sensing floor with primary application in movement-based human- computer interaction (M-HCI). Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors The Design of a Pressure Sensing Floor for Movement-Based Human Computer Interaction Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors GelForce [38] GelForce is a novel type of interface that measures the distribution of both the magnitude and direction of force. The sensor is composed of a transparent elastic body, two layers of blue and red markers and a CCD camera. Force vectors are calculated from the captured movement of the markers.

This floor system may be used to transparently identify users in their everyday living and working environments. We have created user footstep models based on footstep profile features and have been able to achieve a recognition rate of 93% using this feature-based approach Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Sensate floors Sensate floors 1)Sensor floor designs can use large-area force-sensitive resistors that respond to foot pressure. These can be fragile, however, and difficult to transport for mobile installations. 2)Optical techniques, for instance by illuminating translucent floorboards with IR from below and inferring range from detected intensity reflecting off the foot. While this can also measure the foot when it is above the floor, it requires calibration for variations in sole reflectance and floor transparency (which can change with time), and does not directly provide pressure signals. 3)Electric fields, either measuring the change in capacitance between two plates sandwiching an insulator that compresses with pressure, directly measuring the loading of a capacitive electrode by the body when a foot is nearby, or measuring the coupling of an external signal sent from the shoe into a receptor electrode on the floor. Abhaya Chandra K. and Andreas Knig Conclusion 1) The field of Ambient Intelligence can be best used when researches from different groups come together. At present the interaction between different groups ( eg., distributed networking group and sensor design group) is minimal 2) The products that are more generic ( smart homes ) tend to use off the shelf components, but for the products that are more specific and have a good market ( sensate floors used for dance step recognition etc) Research groups are going for integrated approach by use of conductor printing ( Textile based sensors) , MEMS ( wearable sensors ) and many more . So we can relate the use of technology to market and competition. As the field becomes more competitive integrated approaches will become cheaper , and will be used more.
