In this paper, we present the design, implementation and evaluation of a simple and user-friendly interface for a home automation system. Our approach is based on speech; given that this allows a more natural way of interacting with the system. The use of speech also improves accessibility since people with impaired vision can potentially use it. The interface is based on Android and thus, it runs on any Android compatible devices. Alternatively to the interface implemented, we introduce a mock-up of what the ultimate design would look like. Finally, we present the results from an evaluation of the system performed on 30 individuals between the ages of 20--29 years old. These results show an overall broad acceptance of the proposed system. |
