Synopsis

This project was mainly of an exploratory nature with an emphasis on domain study, trend analysis and behavioural study. The brief was to come up with innovative features and solutions to enhance the current smart home experience.

This led to the emergence of a fresh and innovative outlook in the way of interacting with smart homes. It consisted of integrating a social media platform to control the smart homes. The final solution was detailed with the help of various scenarios depicting how the system can be used with the help of high fidelity prototypes. An analysis of the future scope of this project was added as an end note.
