Abstract:

The Digital Home is the result of the convergence of technologies
of different nature that interact with each other in the Home
environment. It is a realization of the Ambient Intelligence concept. The
final objective of the Ambient Intelligence is that sensors, devices and
networks that compose this environment can co-exist with human users,
to improve their quality of live. The relevant characteristic of the Digital
Home as a main scenario of Ambient Intelligence is its pervasive nature.
This paper describes these technologies and their harmonization, based
on the work done in the INREDIS project, which deals with accessibility
and new technologies.
