ST joins hands with IBM and Shaspa to promote the development of the smart home industry

IBM, STMicroelectronics (ST) and Shaspa announced that they will jointly promote the development of cloud and mobile computing in the field of smart homes, so that device manufacturers and service providers can bring innovative home function management and interaction methods to consumers through gestures. A variety of user interfaces such as recognition and voice recognition can control home functions and entertainment systems, creating a better quality smart home and a more comfortable living space.

The so-called smart home concept integrates network functions and provides a home gateway that connects TVs, computers, mobile devices, electricity meters, lighting fixtures, appliances, electrical outlets and sensors, and external services at home. According to research by market research firm Parks Associates, by the end of 2015, more than 8 billion devices will be connected to the home network.

The three companies have teamed up to demonstrate a TV connected to ST's home gateway and IBM Cloud, which uses Shaspa software. The system can monitor home environment parameters (such as temperature) through sensors, and monitor carbon dioxide content or people's movements at home through wireless or battery-free IPv6 networks. Data is sent to a smartphone or tablet via a wireless router. In this way, the owner can move a large amount of housework management to the cloud, using events and time-based preset scenarios to interact with the system.

IBM, STMicroelectronics and Shaspa anticipate that this plan will allow consumers to use any device capable of executing applications to manage various forms of personal activities, such as viewing household electricity usage; controlling home security, heating and lighting systems; household appliances (Such as washing machine); monitoring health status or assisting living environment; or engaging in e-commerce.

For example, a person with limited mobility can make a gesture to the TV to open the door, increase the amount of warm air, or view signs of life. Sensors and devices seamlessly respond to user needs and simulate the way humans sense the environment, so this project represents the future of electronic technology.

In this cooperation project, ST's home gateway and Shaspa's embedded software will serve as a bridge between the home and the cloud services provided by the IBM SmartCloud Service Delivery Platform, managing smart products for electronic product manufacturers and quickly launching Cloud computing service platform.

The home gateway is based on STIH416 and provides physical connections, configuration of intermediary software, management of intermediary software, application protocols, and interfaces for connecting and controlling the Internet of Things. The single chip of the home network system can execute Linux and a service management system conforming to the OSGi industry standard.

Shaspa ’s GUI and application software provide the gateway-cloud service execution infrastructure. The mobile interface of IBM Worklight and Shaspa embedded software forms a mobile application platform, allowing end users to manage and control various devices and devices in their homes through personal devices.

The mobile platform is used to build applications, connect the applications to all sensors in the home, and handle all events. IBM software such as MQ Series and Worklight can send data to mobile devices. The data captured in the cloud network can make new discoveries through advanced analysis systems.

Featured by its wide flat surface with top bend, T16 generates lighting with astonishing uniformity, covers all the colors we offer and all functions. All types of IP68 mold injection connectors and DIY connectors are also available for this size. This size can be widely designed for façade lighting, pool lighting, architecture lighting design and etc.
