=  Software integration in Home Automation  =

It is very easy to see where this industry is going. Many people have started to include a large portion of their daily activity on there PC or laptop. The obvious next step to that (once the mobile revolution started with iPhone) was a heavy emphasis on mobile computing. Now that Apple and Google have stabilized two different industry leading platforms on top of robust IP connections from wireless carriers we are now at a phase that is very possible which is complete integration of all of our products and services into one single "mainframe" from within our own homes, automating all of the processes throughout the day.

Conceptual Identity

The big push for this concept comes from the real time stream of information that the web can bring to you. Home services are necessary for the entire concept to begin. We assume that you have a home or apartment that is wired with a robust internet connection (with WiFi), electric service, water service, gas service (where applicable), as well as other services at your home such as sprinklers, lighting, A/C, home security, etc. The more services a user has billed to them the framework behind the concept is their desire to connect to these services and be able to have a system that A.) intelligently monitors and controls them and B.) Offers real time control via software app on a user device.

Project Tungsten



Google currently has a device pictured above but the latest news really is not readily available on it. It is going to be the hub of a new software platform for Google. My idea dives into the concept of taking complete control over your home, vehicle, etc by having ONE device communicate with all other appliances, meters, and their applicable systems within your home.

 Overview of development process:

  There are many different sources of revenue from one persons home that can contribute to huge potential for ad revenue in a persons home. Think about a company like Google being aware of all your usages of all varieties and how that can help them identify your buying patterns etc.
