Digital Home Technology Integration (DHTI) is the concept of a connected home
technology environment in which a central computer system, programmed or
otherwise directed by the homeowner, manages and distributes incoming and outgoing
Internet and audiovisual digital data, automates lighting, appliances,
and utilities, and controls the local area network (LAN), security system, and other
technologies of the home. The result is what is commonly referred to as a “smarthome”
in which data and control systems are automated and integrated with one
another to the maximum extent possible.

DHTI management and control can be minimal or extensive, depending on
the preference of the individual and the amount of investment in equipment
and infrastructure. A complete DHTI system requires a variety of subsystems,
which are linked together and centrally controlled, but some degree of DHTI can
be accomplished through individual control modules linked to various devices
and appliances in the home.

DHTI systems are generally used to provide, link, manage, and control six
broad areas of the home technology environment:
• Internet and network (within the home) connectivity
• Video and audio signal reception and distribution
• Telecommunications
• Home security and access control
• Utility management (electricity, heating, air conditioning, and water)
• Appliance and lighting automation and control

this.. sounds like Ubiquitous computing... it reminds me of the remote controlled Fan project the year 1 Elect student at Ife built.
What else can we remote control in the home ?

I believe any thing electrical in the home can be controlled so far it can carry a programmable Integrated circuit.
E.g
TV, Radio, ..., microwave oven, ...

Sensors collect information about conditions around the house and send it to a processor. The processor then evaluates that information and issues commands to the appropriate control devices. These devices are the action components in a DHTI system. They act on the processor’s instructions to turn off, turn on, or adjust the levels of subsystems in the home.

Control devices come in many forms:
• Switches, which turn electrical appliances and lights on or off
• Electromagnetic valve controls in water systems and gas lines
• Magnetic lock controls
• Electrical relays, which act as switches within circuits and route data to appropriate
points in the DHTI system
• Electromagnetic mechanisms, called servos, that perform linear movements such
as sliding a lock bolt open or closed or adjusting the set of a furnace damper
• Electric motors with remotely controlled switches that perform such functions
as pulling curtain and shade lines, drawing a pool cover open or closed, or raising
and lowering a garage door
• Hydraulic actuators that perform heavy duty functions such as opening and
closing large driveway gates, or lifting heavy loads in an elevator or dumb
waiter
All control devices in a DHTI system have the ability to receive digital instructions from a processor and convert those instructions into some form of action or movement. Many control devices can also be operated MANUALLY so the instructions they receive from the processor can be overridden, and the subsystems they control can be operated or shut down on site in the event of an emergency or a system failure.

kind of make us more lazy
