Internet of Things (IoT)
• What is IoT?
The internet of things, or IoT describes the network of
physical objects that are embedded with sensors, software,
and other technologies for the purpose of connecting and
exchanging data with other devices and system over the
internet.
• How does IoT work?

The devices contain micro-processors that processes the
data collected by the sensors through machine learning
techniques.
Internet of IoT is creating much buzz while it goes about
transforming our lives. IoT is everywhere, even
Things in though we don't always see it or know that a
device is part of the IoT. The IoT is turning
Our Daily physical objects into an ecosystem of
information shared between devices that are
Lives wearable, portable, even implantable, making our
lives technology and data rich.
Home Automation
• What is Home Automation?
Also known as domotics, a Home Automation system
monitors and control and home attributes. It may also
include home security such as access control and alarm
systems.
• How does Home Automation work?
A home automation system typically connects controlled
devices to a central smart home hub (sometimes called a
"gateway"). The user interface for control of the system
uses either wall-mounted terminals, tablet or desktop
computers, a mobile phone application, or a Web interface
that may also be accessible off-site through the Internet.
Home Automation
Reasons for its Popularity:
• Home automation has high potential for sharing data
between family members or trusted individuals for
personal security and could lead to energy saving
measures with a positive environmental impact in the
future.
• The home automation market was worth USD5.77 Billion
in 2013, predicted to reach a market value of USD12.81
Billion by the year 2020, while it stood at USD45.8 Billion
in 2017 and now predicted to reach USD114 Billion by
the end of 2025.

Elements of a Home Automation
System
Home automation is a network of hardware, communication,

and electronic interfaces that work to integrate everyday devices
with one another via the Internet.
There are three main elements of a home automation system:
• Sensors
• Controllers
• Actuators
Sensors
Sensors are devices that detect external information, replacing it
with a signal that humans and machines can distinguish.
• Sensors can monitor changes in daylight, temperature, or
motion detection. Home automation systems can then adjust
those settings to your preferences.
• They are most commonly used on doors and windows that
can be potential entry points into your home.
• App-based sensors can even send an alert to your smart
device that someone has used one of your entry points.
Controllers
Controller is the device that receives the sensors' signals,
processes them and makes computations on them. Then it sends
instruction signals to the actuators.
• The devices such as personal computers, tablets or
smartphones which are used to send and receive messages
about the status of automated features in your home
• You can control almost anything remotely - turn lights or
appliances on and off, open door locks, shut your garage,
check temperature and humidity sensors or even have
motion detectors notify you instantly if movement is
detected on your property.
Actuators
An actuator is a device that produces a motion by converting

energy and signals going into the system.
• Actuators may be light switches, motors, or motorized valves
that control the actual mechanism, or function, of a home
automation system. They are programmed to be activated by
a remote command from a controller as mentioned before.
• In a home, several appliances, furniture, and other functional
and aesthetic features depend on actuators.
• Actuators used in homes provide great convenience.
They help to reduce the effort and increase productivity.
The Ultimate
HEXIS Home Partner
What is HEXIS
• HEXIS is a home automation device which uses internet and
different AI techniques to observe the surrounding and follow
the commands accordingly.
• The HEXEYE not only works as a camera but also monitors the
movement in the house which provides security to the user.
• It uses the advanced technology and sensors to collect data

and give a preferred output to control devices, hence follows
the ideology of IoT.
HEXIS and its Benefits
• Every thing in the house can be accessed from anywhere through smartphone.
• Manages the lights, temperature, and other home appliances by AI on its own.
• Provides security.
HEXIS being a Health Partner
• The HEXIS can set reminders for taking medications and

schedule an appointment with the doctor for you.
• The HEXIS also come along with equipment through which a

person’s heartbeat, blood pressure, oxygen level and sugar
level by simply wearing it over your finger.
• If an abnormal result is obtained, HEXIS automatically calls for

emergency services for your safety.
HEXIS and its Future
• As the world is adapting the evolution in technology, Artificial
Intelligence (AI) has gained a huge popularity. Every thing is
shifting towards IoT, and is a click away from our smartphones.
• Through upgrades and modifications, the basic tasks can be

done by HEXIS such as turning on the lights in evening.
• The detection and searching of a person who entered your

house through his face with the retina scan system can be
introduced.
• HEXIS in the future is a space for digital natives. One can

implement several of their tasks with just a single verbal
instruction.

worry about our home. With home automation, we can save time going back to our home
and make sure everything is order, like if the kids close the door from school or turn on the
lights when you get home.
Save Money. This is the biggest advantage of home automation. With the ability to control
the light, whether dimming or turning on/off on specific time will saves homeowner a great
ton of money. You can save money through household temperature, with proper automation
in window shades and automated thermostat. In addition, you can save gas, by not driving
back home if you forgot to turn off appliances or lock the door.
AI encompasses the ability to connect multiple IoT devices,
coupled with superior processing and learning abilities, and
use them to pre-empt human behavior. AI-powered smart
home devices can interact with each other and acquire new
data that assists in learning human habits. Data collected is
used to predict the behavior of users and develop situational
awareness, i.e., understand user preferences and change
parameters accordingly.
The potential offered by IoT and AI isn’t simply limited to new

Convergence of
AI with Home
homes, because there are a lot of choices that permit existing
devices, for example, switches to be changed over to Smart
Switches, existing ACs to be adjusted to give remote access
