Controle residencial: um estudo sobre a implantação de um sistema economicamente inclusivo

Abstract

This undergraduate thesis aims to analyse a Residential Control system proposed by the author, aimed at achieving a cost-effective solution in the context of the brazilian household in Residential Automation. In order to do that, a viability analysis of the proposed system was performed through market research, brazilian household income indicators, and other scientific research works elaborated in the academic environment to, finally, allow the mapping of brazilians that can afford this system. After the analysis, the modularization of the residential control system showed itself as an appropriate solution to help include society’s less favored classes in the viability range. Based on that, a prototype was developed to demonstrate how the proposed system works, that includes three types of control modules for domestic appliances, and an Android application to control these modules using a smartphone. This prototype contains a on/off control switch modules, a Dimmer control module, and an Infrared control module. These can be used in conjunction with supported devices.
