The paper shows the feasibility of the development and application of specialized demonstration systems (hardware/software complexes) for training in the field of home automation technologies. Existing solutions from well-known developers have been analyzed; their advantages and disadvantages are shown. The possibilities of existing remote and virtual laboratories for studying Internet of Things technologies and, in particular, Smart House systems, were investigated. As a result, based on the Legrand platform, a hardware/software complex MyHome was designed and practically implemented. It contains a block of complex and simple scenarios, a bus power supply, an access gateway to OpenWebNet system, a thermal monitoring system, control devices, and circuit breakers. For the realization of the monitoring subsystem, additional usage of the Raspberry Pi minicomputer with installed OpenHAB platform was proposed. Students can use the created system, teachers, as well as research engineers to study principles of Smart House control as well as and to develop patterns of human activity in order to realize scenarios to ensure comfort, energy efficiency and resources saving. |
