INTRODUCTION

People's lifestyle has been altered by smart technology. Everything began with
smartphones at the beginning of the century. Since then, the term "smart" has been
synonymous with practically every form of technology available, including smart
microwaves, smart televisions, smart fans, smart bells, smart doors, smart
automobiles, and the list goes on.

Strategic energy planning and national policy prioritize smart houses. Smart home
technologies' (SHTs) market uptake depends on potential customers seeing obvious
advantages with manageable risks. The perceived advantages and hazards of SHTs are
described in this task  from a variety of angles. The term "smart houses" is used to refer
generally to the integration of improved monitoring and control functions into residences.In
order to enable automation and localized and remote access of the home environment,
smart home technologies (SHTs) consist of sensors, monitors, interfaces, appliances, and
devices that are networked together.

The building services system for a smart house typically consists of an entry
system, a fire protection system, a communication system, a ???? system,
special service system and a mechanical handling system. Each system is made
up of several functions that are employed in the notion of a smart house,
including smart smoke detectors, smart home elevators, smart CCTV, and many
more. On the next page, all information pertaining to our suggested solution for a
multi-story smart house will be thoroughly presented.

FIRE
PROTECTION

SYSTEM

02

APPLICATION

Fire is just like other accidents, something cannot be predicted. Fire is
known to be hazardous as it may involve lives. The safety plan for a
property should include the fire prevention system. The lives of those
who are within the building are put in great danger in an emergency
without such fire protection system. Fire protection systems come in
numerous varieties and operate in a variety of ways, but they always
share the same objectives: to detect fires and safeguard buildings,
their occupants, and belongings.

A fire detection system is made to identify fire primarily via the use of
smoke and heat. Additionally, it should be able to be manually
operated in the event that a fire is discovered before smoke or heat are
detected by the system's sensors. When the sprinkler system detects
movement, a fire is being responded to by the sprinklers, activating
other systems . These alarms will be clearly noticeable, unbearably
loud, and difficult to dismiss, which will encourage people to follow the
evacuation strategy. Utilizing both varieties of alarms guarantees that
everyone inside the building is informed.

03

SYSTEM

We have come to the decision of proposing the
ionization smoke detector system for the smart
apartment building. Apparently, inside the
ionization smoke detectors, there is a steady
electrical current flowing between two metal
plates. When smoke is detected in the device
chamber, the electrical current is interrupted,
setting off the alarm. This kind of detector works
well for rapidly recognizing flames that are
burning quickly. In comparison to the
photoelectric smoke detector system, the
ionization smoke detector system is a greater
option in terms of speed.

This detector has a shown ability to save lives,
avoid severe burns, and shield buildings from
fire damages. This type of smoke detector
identify flames that burn fast and are huge
even though little smoke is released. Gasoline,
cleaning chemicals, cooking oil and newspaper
are among the combustibles which burn at the
speed of light and the grounds of fierce fires.
Ionization smoke detectors are very sensitive
when recognizing tiny smoke particles
produced by quick-burning fires but are less
sensitive in detecting slow-burning fires
emitting large smoke. The air in the open
ionization chamber is ionized to work the smoke
alarm.

04

INSTALLATION PROCESS

Selecting the right smoke detectors is an essential
beginning to installing them.

Firstly, pick smoke alarms/detectors that are recognized
and with a label from an accredited testing facility.

Mount smoke alarms on every level of the building,
including the lobby and outside each apartment unit, along
the hallway/corridor.

Inside the apartments, install alarms in the living room,
kitchen and bedrooms.

Smoke detectors should be mounted on the ceiling at the
bottom of the steps leading to the upper level if they are in
the basement.

However, to reduce false alerts when cooking, smoke
alarms should be installed at least 10 feet or 3 meters away
from cooking equipment.

Due to the smoke rises, install smoke detectors high on the
walls or ceilings. Alarms positioned on walls should not be
more than 12 inches from the ceiling (to the top of the
alarm).
In addition, smoke detectors are also required to be
installed at each lift lobby of every floor.

For the emergency exits, at the bottom of the stairs going
to the upper level, smoke alarms ought to be mounted on
the ceiling.

05

BENEFITS

Cheap and Affordable:
Smoke detectors are much cheaper compared to other fire
prevention systems. The reason for this selection is
because the smoke detectors need to be installed in a
wide area range of the 5-storey apartment building. With
this, the cost of the fire protection system installation can
be minimized. Smoke detectors also come in different sizes
and shapes which can be chosen from.

Fast Detecting Device:
Smoke detectors pick up on smaller smoke particles and
react more rapidly to burning fires. This particle material
rises into the smoke detector during a fire, setting off a loud
alarm. There are two types of smoke detectors: ionization
and photoelectric. Small amounts of smoke can be
detected by ionization smoke detectors, but photoelectric
smoke detectors are quicker and more sensitive to smoke.
Hence, these smoke alarms are great for apartment
buildings as it needs to notify residents as fast as the
lighting during emergencies.

24/7 Activation:
Unlike other fire protection systems (eg. fire extinguisher,
hose reel), smoke detectors have an activation system
that runs 24/7. This is crucial for the safety of the building
occupants. Since residents will not be home 24/7, smoke
detectors can alarm the neighbours on danger and these
neighbours can help with safeguarding pets, if there are
any). Moreover, smoke alarms can ensure the safety of the
occupants during night time. Even when everyone is
asleep, the smoke alarms or detectors will still function and
be activated to provide you warnings during emergencies.
This way, residents can sleep in peace without worrying
about their family's safety.

06

PROBLEMS

Very Sensitive:
Smoke detectors are very sensitive on the other hand. This
system is very prone to giving false alarms as they can
also detect smoke produced from cooking. As smoke
detectors can detect even the tiniest amount of smoke
particles, this occurrence can happen by mistake. This is
why it is important to plan the position of the smoke
alarms, especially in minimum-spaced areas like
apartments. The smoke detectors need to be at least 10
feet or 3 meters from cooking appliances and products.

Require Regular Maintenance:
Regular maintenance is needed for smoke detectors. This
is due to the location of the smoke detectors. They are
placed on the ceilings or on top of the walls, hence, being
possibly ignored. The ceilings and top of the walls are
where dust and insects are usually based. the presence of
dust and insects may interfere with the smoke detection
system. Thus, maintenance needs to be done at least once
a month to ensure maximum operation for the smoke
detectors. Regular maintenance also means more
maintenance cost.

Use of Radioactive Materials:
The presence of radioactive materials doesn't pose a
threat to ionization smoke detectors. Less than a single
milligram of the element americium-241 is present in the
apparatus. A person would have to actually consume it or
breathe it in for it to be dangerous in any way. Alpha rays
are the type of radiation produced by americium-241. They
are not powerful enough to tear through a sheet of paper
when operating at the level found in an ionisation smoke
detector. The alpha rays are safely trapped by the
detector's plastic case.

they collide with air molecules,
transforming them into negative
electrons and positive ions (shown in
this image as large red blobs)
(shown as smaller black blobs).

But when a fire starts, smoke particles enter the detector and
begin to jam the ionization chamber (6). In doing so, they
essentially stop the electric current by attaching themselves
to the ions (7). The detector's circuit immediately detects
that change (8) and rings the signal (9). The detecting
chamber clears, the ions continue to move back and forth
between the electrodes as previously, the circuit closes, and
the alarm stops ringing after the fire and smoke have been
extinguished.

08

SPACE IMPLICATIONS

Individuals and communities have less than three minutes to
evacuate a fire after the first smoke alarm rings. More time is
secured to escape, the faster one hears an alarm. According to the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), smoke detectors must
have a 21-foot radius and a 1,385-square-foot coverage area. A
maximum of 30 feet should separate two smoke alarms. Each end
of a corridor that is longer than 30 feet must have a smoke alarm
installed. Smoke from a kitchen and steam from a bathroom might
set off alarms. If possible, think about placing alarms distant from
these rooms to prevent potentially bothersome alarms.

REGULATIONS

A smoke alarm or smoke detector should be
an essential in homes especially in buildings
like multi-storey apartments. As a result, in
order to optimize the amount of available
evacuation time, it is necessary to have a
sufficient number of smoke alarms that are
strategically placed. NFPA 72, the National
Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, has long
regulated the installation of smoke alarms
at a minimum in every sleeping area, as well
as outside each sleeping area and on every
floor of the house. For larger residences,
extra smoke alarms are recommended.

APPLICATION

CLOSED-CIRCUIT TELEVISION (CCTV)

Closed-circuit television (CCTV) is a television system in which signals are not
broadcast publicly but are monitored, usually for monitoring and security.
The CCTV cameras have made rapid advances into the everyday lifestyle. The
CCTV camera is no longer restricted to law enforcement and military purposes,
but has evolved into a self-effacing device for public and private sectors. CCTV
cameras are video cameras that capture the environment with live streaming
capability and save it on a Digital Video Recorder (DVR) for long-term storage.
Because of the general acceptance, the CCTV business has produced devices
that are created specifically to customer needs and applications. Despite
disputes over the invasion of civilian privacy caused by CCTV cameras, these
systems have shown to be effective at deterring crime, and rightly so.
With the growth and awareness in the home automation and security sector,
CCTV cameras may be beneficial when combined with fire alarms, home
invasion alerts, and unethical access notifications.

11

SYSTEM

An IP camera, often known as an Internet
protocol camera, is a form of digital
security camera that collects and
transmits video footage via an IP
network. They are frequently used in
surveillance. In contrast to analogue
closed-circuit television cameras
(CCTV), IP cameras simply require a
local network. IP cameras, like phones
and laptops, connect to a network in the
same manner.

Analogue CCTV cameras capture pictures and
send them to a digital recorder, which
transforms the video to digital format. To view
the video, connect the DVR to a monitor or router
and broadcast it across an internal network for
remote access. However, the power of analogue
broadcasts is governed by government rules.

PTZ is an abbreviation for pan, tilt, and zoom.
These cameras are popular due to their
versatility, since they offer a lightweight choice
that can cover a vast area range. They provide
operators with the option to manually
manipulate or configure their cameras to
guarantee they acquire the most precise picture
possible, making them useful in wide-area
surveillance applications like as cities,
transportation hubs, sports stadiums, shopping
centres, and warehouses.

BENEFITS

Monitoring large areas:
PTZ cameras are intended to cover broad areas, such
as farms, malls, and parking lots. Because of its
flexibility to pan, tilt, and zoom, it can cover significantly
more ground than a standard fixed camera. These
cameras are typically employed to survey an area that
would be too costly or difficult to cover with fixed
cameras.



Flexible in Installing CCTV at Blind Spot Area:
If we hear a weird noise or want some extra peace of
mind, we may check the perimeter of our property by
putting CCTV cameras in locations you can't see from
your windows, often known as blind spots. What's more,
it's less stressful and safer. If we don't have any other
way of identifying who the visitor is, having CCTV
placed as a peephole allows us to observe who is
knocking on our door late at night. It is especially
beneficial for the elderly and others who are more
vulnerable.

Motion Tracking:
While many traditional, fixed-field-of-view cameras
include motion tracking, PTZ cameras provide a more
comprehensive motion tracking kit; the pan, tilt, and
zoom functions can work with motion tracking software
and intelligent video analytics to automatically follow
the target (whether a person, specific item, or vehicle)
across a much larger area. PTZ cameras are also useful
for manually tracking targets since they allow you to
operate the camera's functionalities and track the
target in real time.

14

PROBLEMS

LIMITED VIEW: PTZ cameras are unable to capture
regions that the camera is not
explicitly looking at, which is a
significant disadvantage that leads to
coverage gaps. Cameras can pan, tilt,
and zoom to capture potentially large
areas, but not at the same time.
Incidents can occur, and intruders
can sneak unnoticed from under the
camera's area of vision (FOV).

HIGH RISK OF PTZ cameras that are not correctly
MALFUNCTION: installed might cause problems both
mechanically and legally. On the technical
SURVEILLANCE side, camera hardware that is not properly
BLIND-SPOTS: placed may malfunction under changing
weather conditions. On the legal front, PTZ
cameras that encompass even an inch of
private property in their range of vision
may find the installation and owner in hot
water.

PTZ cameras are prone for pointing in the
wrong direction, especially when set to
"auto" or "home." A camera may pan to the
next preset indefinitely, independent of
what is happening in its field of vision.
Although having a guard watching the
camera at all times is the optimal
approach to operate a PTZ camera,
blindspots are still a danger of human
mistake if the controller is left in the wrong
place.

15

FUNCTION, CONNECTION AND
POSITION

The PTZ CCTV provides various of functions such as determining high-powered IR LEDs,
Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) and auto tracking. The PTZ camera with high-powered
infrared LEDs that can light objects in complete darkness from a great distance away. This
camera features a 40X zoom lens and can automatically transition from wide angle to long-
range IR based on the zoom length. Without this form of auto adjustment, your PTZ camera's IR
may overexpose items close to the camera or underexpose objects further away. Next, PTZ
cameras are frequently positioned high on the tops of buildings or poles to capture a broad field
of view. If you want to utilize your PTZ camera in this manner, seek for one with Electronic Image
Stabilization (EIS). This function can help to steady the camera, decreasing obvious tremor and
blurring, particularly in windy conditions. Lastly, The PTZ cctv camera may be adjusted in its
camera's tracking zone, as well as the degree of zoom desired, all of which aids in tracking
accuracy. This function can aid in improving the accuracy of what is being captured.

SPACE IMPLICATION AND
BUILDING REGULATIONS

SPACE IMPLICATION

The PTZ CCTV will be installed majorly outside of the building to secure the
blind-spots. Next, the CCTV will be installed at the front door. This is the most
visible way for thieves to gain entry into your house, and it accounts for the
majority of break-ins. Consider placing the equipment on the second story or
installing a wire cage around it to prevent objects from being flung at the
sensitive CCTV cameras. In addition, any entry into your property is seen as a
potential entry point for a criminal into your private area. Install cameras on all
doorways, as these are your most susceptible points. To prevent manipulation,
use the same procedures as mentioned in the preceding step. It is a prevalent
misperception that CCTV cameras are only suitable for use outside. Installing a
camera on the interior of your home, with the lens aimed on the doors or
windows, can film a criminal entering your home, allowing you to see their
entire face for quicker identification. The main problem of placing cameras
indoors is that they are not as visually deterrent, and a burglar must first enter
your home to discover them.

REGULATIONS

A CCTV surveillance system consists of CCTV
cameras, footage storage devices, recorded
pictures, and any other equipment attached to
your CCTV security system.
The goal of installing CCTV cameras is to
improve the security of our private property.
However, if you have security cameras in and
around your home, make sure you know if they
are collecting footage of public roadways,
shared places among residents, or
photographs of other people's private property.
If this is the case, the EU's recently enacted
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and
the UK's Data Protection Act (DPA) will apply to
your home's CCTV video and how you utilise
the photos your system has captured.

TELECOMMUNICATION
SYSTEM

19

APPLICATION

Telecommunication is the process of communicating by sending a message over a long
distance. Today's examples of telecommunication uses include the use of electrical devices
like telegraphs, telephones, and teletypes, radio, microwave transmission, fibre optics, and
other related technologies, as well as orbiting satellites, computer networks, and the
internet. A system that facilitates the timely and effective conveyance of communications
is another definition of a telecommunication system. It must be user-friendly, well-
organized, durable, versatile, and simple to maintain.
Numerous more uses for telephone cabling systems exist, including computer networking,
teleprinters, and fire and security alarms. The voltage and current are incredibly low, and
there is no direct connection to the primary power source for a structure.
Telecommunications and mains cabling should be split in distinct conduits and trunking for
safety and to prevent interference.
By linking electrical fibre optic networks and creating an interior communication network
within the household, we are able to discover the domestic air conditioning and other smart
appliance network. Additionally, we accomplish home appliances that automatically gather,
analyse, and manage electrical data; achieve economical operation and energy control for
home appliances through intelligent interactive terminals, smart sockets, smart appliances,
and more.
In addition, it is found that the system can perform automatic data collection and
management of water metres, gas metres, support and property management centre cell
master network, smoke detection, anti-theft, and other home security functions via
intelligent interactive terminals.

INSTALLATION PROCESS

Decide where the router will be installed.
The simplest method to guarantee
optimum coverage is to pick a space that is
open in the centre of the house. (Avoid
putting things made of heavy metal, glass,
brick, or concrete)

To start, link the modem and router
together. The WAN (wide-area network)
port on the router will need to have an
Ethernet wire plugged into it.

The Ethernet wire's other end has to
be connected from the WAN port to
the Ethernet port on the modem's
back. (Make sure the modem is
turned on and that you are ready to
connect to the internet.

BENEFITS AND PROBLEMS Benefits

Saves time: Information can be sent considerably
more quickly. Contacting people becomes easier
and more effective. Emails and texts allow us to
instantaneously contact with anybody.
Job creation: Information and communication
technology has opened up numerous new career
options for system analysts, computer
programmers, web designers, hardware and
software engineers.
Cost effective: It is more affordable to send an
email than a phone call to another nation. The
internet has also helped firms decrease costs by
systematising corporate procedures.

Problems

Privacy: There has been a lot of issues of gaining
someone's private information without their
concern, from email hacking to phone signal
eavesdropping.
Installation cost: Installing a wireless network is
quite expensive, making it exceedingly
expensive even though wireless networks are
often affordable.
Speed: Wireless networks operate at a lesser
speed than wired networks. A wireless network
makes file sharing and transfer substantially
slower. The user's position in relation to the
network affects speed as well.

HOW DO THEY FUNCTION?

A smart sensing gadget need to be capable of several tasks. A
smart motion sensor, for instance, may be included into a security
system to detect motion during periods of the day when no one is at
home. It may also be used to offer information on a senior's
movements within their home as a component of an assisted living
system. The same motion sensor may be included into a home's
heating and cooling system to maximize efficiency by detecting
people's whereabouts and only heating or cooling a space when
occupants are there. The illumination might be controlled by the
same sensor, which would switch on and off lights in response to
occupant entry and exit.
A resourceful manufacturer of smart homes devices will create a
system that can use its sensor network concurrently for a number of
services and applications.

a doorway to the resources of the wired
network, such as an Internet
connection, because wireless networks
are commonly connected to wired
networks.

Computers must have wireless network
adapters in order to join a wireless
network and connect to an access point.

Application of
Mechanical Handling
System

Mechanical handling systems are essential equipment that will play important role in
controlling the transportation of occupants in a building as well as heavy loads. They are
required in order to provide a reliable and constant product delivery service.
The primary goal of the mechanical handling system is to ensure appropriate handling, lifting,
and unloading of equipment as well as individuals or residents in order to provide a safe
residential environment. It guarantees that the activities follow the necessary norms and
project requirements.
As we usually observe in commercial buildings, elevator is an interior vertical transport which
enables its customers to go from one floor level to another floor levels and also it helps to
transfer heavy things with ease. The same idea applies to residential elevator systems,
however there are minor changes in terms of limit capacity, design, and cost between
commercial elevators and residential elevators.

Proposed System for
Multi-Storey Smart

Building

As for the proposed multi-storey residential building, we have agreed to install a
smart house elevator. A smart house elevator is an intelligent system idea that
controls the home elevator system using voice commands or devices such as tablets
and smartphones with an application that is linked via network access. A smart home
elevator system improves safety and security by allowing users to set it to only
recognise their homes, as opposed to a traditional home elevator that may be used by
anybody.
There is a home elevator innovation with these safety characteristics, as the elevator
must be triggered by the user's access keycard before proceeding to the specified
floor level. However, because this invention is only fit for office buildings, it is not fair
for homes to carry an access keycard anytime they wish to use their home elevator.
As a result, a smart home elevator that can be maintained via a device and operated
via voice command is more appropriate to be recommended for a multi-story smart
house.

28

Characteristics & features of smart 24
house elevator

One of the smart safety characteristics of a smart home elevator is that it can
detect its users from a distance using a motion sensor, and the elevator door
will automatically open or stop if any impediments are detected in front.
The smart home elevator may be controlled via a smart control panel,
allowing users to secure their elevator and prevent it from being used by
others.
Smart home elevator has supplied backup energy management by employing
batteries to power up the elevator in the event of a power outage, enabling
users to move to the next floor.
The smart house elevator has an alarm button that is linked to an auto dialler
that users may utilise in an emergency.
To begin, a keypad podium is installed in the lobby of a building. Each
passenger is given a code or a keycard that they must swipe or manually
input at the podium. This information informs the smart elevator system of
the passenger's destination floor.
Swiping your keycard, for example, notifies the system that you are on the
22nd level. Then you'll be allocated to an elevator with other passengers
heading to the same or surrounding floors. This drastically reduces waiting
and travel time.
One of the most interesting features of smart elevators is how they detect the
weight of the cab. The system knows how many people are in each elevator at
any one moment. That is, if an elevator is full, it will not stop at another floor
in vain.
Smart elevators also study
the behaviours of its
passengers over time.
Assume you go to the 18th
floor for lunch every day at
noon. Based on your
tendencies, the elevator
can send you right there
when you swipe your
keycard.

29

Installation of smart house elevator

1.The smart house elevator may be built in one of two ways: directly on the floor 24
or through recessed installation. The manner of elevator installation is
determined by the user's wish or the structure design of the home itself. If the
customer wished to immediately install their elevator on the floor, there will be a
little change in elevator height since the elevator carrier will be directly mounted
on the floor, giving the elevator an extra 50mm height. As a result, the installer
recommends installing a 50mm ramp up in order to level the floor level with the
elevator entrance and thus create a clean design. However, if recessed
installation is used, the ramp must not be erected because the elevator carrier
will be mounted 37mm below the floor level.

2.Following the selection of the installation technique, the major components of
the elevator, which include the elevator carrier, L-shaped platform, and its drive
system, will be assembled and mounted to the rear surface of the platform wall,
along with its control panel. Smart home elevator installation is less complicated
than other house elevators since their elevator system is a screw and nut drive
system that is located at the rear of the platform wall rather than a headroom
and machine room.

3.After all of the elevator framework components have been assembled and
secured in place, the finishing components will be installed. Glass wall panels
and elevator door, as well as its frame and call button, lighting system for the
elevator shaft and wall, top ceiling covering, backside covering, and any other
coverings chosen by the user, since the Aritco HomeLift is customisable. The
primary component and finishing component will be installed in the order
specified in their installation manuals.

Benefits of smart house elevator

Easy The ability to remotely monitor and test lift systems in real time
Management is likely the most significant advantage of smart elevator
technology. This feature is especially useful for facilities
managers who must monitor various buildings and elevator
systems. There's no need to go to check on these systems or
wait for a building user to report a problem. Remote monitoring
will alert you to any difficulties while also allowing you to view
your elevators in real time. Remote testing allows you to
observe a problem in action. These inspections can also be
planned during quieter times for the lift to avoid interfering with
normal operations.

These safety feature is to prevent from any unnecessary usage by Safety Featur2e4 s
the outsiders. Other than that, the smart home elevator also has
improved its system by providing a backup energy management
powered by batteries as to allow the users to escape to the nearest
floor lecel is there is any incident of power supply breakdown while
using home elevator. Next, the user will also benefits from the
system of alarm and emergency call button which can be used in
case of emergency situation such as malfunctioning while the user is
still inside the elevator

Easy access Any user, including the disabled, may conveniently utilise a
smart house elevator. It is recommended to install these
smart home elevators if there is a disabled person in the
household because it will provide easy access for the
disabled people to go to the upper floor level without the
need for their families to help carry them up and because
the speed rate for these elevators is faster than the stair
climber.

31

Problems of smart house elevator

Limited Load The first disadvantage of smart house elevator is that it has a
Capacity tendency to not be able to sustain high passenger load since it
has already been engineered that the elevator's power
consumption will only be able to carry their passengers based
on the elevator platform sizes. Furthermore, the elevator will
not be capable of transporting any heavy objects to some other
level that have exceeded the maximum load because the motor
will require an extra power supply to drive the nut in order for it
to rotate around the screw because the motor has been
engineered and designed to only receive power to the
maximum capacity load. It is advised that the customer instals a
larger elevator type that can bear a greater weight when
transporting 5-6 people or heavy products with the smart home
elevator. However, this will have an impact on floor spa2c4e
consumption because the larger model would require more
area.

Additional The next disadvantage of smart house elevator is that there are
hidden cost frequently additional hidden costs for these smart home
elevators without any prior warning, even if the real price for
these is actually less than that of a traditional elevator due to its
design and mechanical components. If consumers add an extra
item to their elevator, such as decorating for the elevator wall,
types of finishes used, or any coverings, the price of these smart
home elevators will skyrocket. The additional cost for the
elevator will be determined by how the user customises their
elevators.

Dependancy on the Although the benefits of smart house elevators include the
ability to monitor the activity and routine of the elevators while
internet access away from home, this technology will only operate if the Internet

is available. If residents have a power outage or a disruption in

service for whatever reason, they will no longer be able to

manage any parts of their elevators, including lights and

appliances. This might cause problems if the residents are not at

home at the time.

Components of smart home elevator 24

1.0 Emergency call button

Because it is linked to an auto dialler, the alarm and emergency call
button functions to contact a pre-programmed number in the event of
an emergency. During the elevator installation, the phone number will
be programmed. The user will be connected to the pre-programmed
number after the green LED of the call button glows after more than 10
seconds of pushing the call button.

2.0 Smart control button

The smart control button and steering wheel feature is used to operate
the elevator by selecting the floor destination with the steering wheel
and then pressing the button to activate the elevator motor.

3.0 Floor level and lock indicator

The floor level indicator will display its current floor level position in a
sequence of 1 to 6 based on the apartment's storey. To show the
occupants its present position, the current elevator level indication will
be brighter than the other floor level. When the user activates the lock
safety function, the lock indicator will display a locked sign next to the
floor level indication. To activate the lock safety function, spin the
steering wheel counterclockwise and hold it for five seconds.

4.0 Limit capacity indicator

These indicator will show the elevator limit capacity load elevator is
engineered, if there is an excessive passenger and exceeded the
elevator limit load capacity, the indicator light will change to red color.
Which means, the elevator will not be able to operate if its reached the
limit capacity load.

5.0 Emergency stop button

When there is an obstruction on the bottom or top of the elevator
platform, the emergency stop button will be activated. The emergency
stop button causes the motor to stop operating and the drive nut to
stop spinning at the same time. When the button is pushed, an arrow
sign with a white backlight appears on the panel.

34

Basic principles of smart home elevator

24

The suggested elevator's functioning technique was a screw and nut drive
mechanism. When the control system is triggered, the elevator motor
placed at the rear surfaces of the platform wall will cause a movement to
the flat cable, which will lead to the movement of the elevator platform by
the rotation of the drive nut around the drive screw. As the motor rotates
the drive nut, an automated lubrication flows around the drive screw to
give a smooth operation because the lubricating oil is utilised to minimise
friction between the drive nut and drive screw during the operation.

Furthermore, the drive screw inclination acts as a brake system for the
elevator since the threaded drive screw design provides a natural brake to
the elevator after the drive nut rotation has stopped. In an emergency,
these brake mechanisms can also be activated by pushing the emergency
stop button on the control panel.

35

Implications of space for smart home
elevator

The suggested home elevator would not take 24
up as much floor space as a standard home
elevator since it is meant to give better room
organization and space saving even in a
cramped residence. This may be
accomplished by adopting a screw and nut
drive mechanism for the elevator, which does
not require additional space for headroom
and machine area. The position of the elevator
will be determined by the user's preference
and the house's architectural design. As a
result, it is typically put at a home corner or
next to a staircase by attaching the elevator's
backside covering to the wall construction.

Regulations for smart home elevator

European Safety Standard EN81-41

Because the proposed elevator is built in Sweden, the
manufacturing technique must comply with European
Standards of Safety laws, specifically European Safety
Standards EN81-41. Aside from that, the suggested
elevator's installation technique, maintenance work, and
emergency operation are all in conformity with these
safety criteria. The British Standards Institution issued the
most recent Safety Standards EN81-41 in 2010. These
Safety Standards must be followed since they give a
detailed explanation for each platform lift method. It will
aid in the prevention of any incident or system failure that
might result in a dangerous scenario. The elevator drive
system, on the other hand, is not covered by these safety
standards and must be evaluated individually.

APPLICATION

Smart sensors are integrated with
mobile phones, wearable technology,
temperature sensors, and human
motion detectors to provide smart air
conditioning control. Mobile phones
and other wearable technology put
on the body of a person provide
input to smart sensors, particularly
information about occupants. In what
is known as intention causing control,
the knowledge may be utilized to
adjust air conditioners in advance in
accordance with human goals.

Wearable technology combined with a smart air conditioner's ability to monitor body
temperature and activity during sleep allowed for flexible adjustment of the sleeping
function. The smart air conditioner that was demonstrated could create a pleasant
atmosphere while also pursuing energy efficiency and environmental protection
objectives. People rely on air conditioners (ACs) a lot more than they did in the past for
a higher quality and more comfortable modern lifestyle. ACs raise the occupancy rate
of building areas in both industrialized and developing nations. Additionally, this causes
AC energy usage to increase quickly.

Other helpful features that smart air conditioners provide include temperature
scheduling, geofencing, and interaction with smart assistants like Alexa. You have the
option of using a smart WIFI air conditioner gadget to manage your air conditioner
from your phone.

INSTALLATION PROCESS OF SMART AIR

CONDITIONING

1.Smart conditioner installation should begin
with the installation of a new air conditioner
and all of its essential components. Depending
on how the new air conditioners are
connected, this may necessitate the installation
of new pipe, electrical, and ducting
connections. During this time, all electrical
connections will be checked, and refrigerant
will be fed into the system in accordance with
the manufacturer's recommendations.

2. MyAir's new air conditioner will allow occupants to design their own air
conditioning system, which they can then have MyAir install. Controlling up to
four air conditioners from a single MyPlace wall mount touch screen. When
you activate the MyPlace app, the MyAir+ tab displays the home screen, as
seen in the picture above. Each symbol in the preceding set represents a
different air-conditioning unit, and pushing on the top left of each icon
activates that air-conditioning unit. Each air conditioning unit may be operated
in the same manner that any other MyAir system can.
3. The MyAir+ Plans screen may be accessed by clicking the Plans button in the
bottom right-hand corner of the MyAir+ Home screen. Because your MyAir+
Plans apply to air-conditioning units, occupants can be sure that the "caught"
snapshot for each plan will contain the present status of all of the air-
conditioning units in your system, as well as their zone settings. By default, the
word "AC" refers to an air conditioning unit. To modify this name or rename
any other unit, navigate to Setup > Options on the air conditioning unit you
want to rename and select the Rename option. All of the steps may be found
in the handbook.
4. An authorised dealer or
professional must execute the
installation. A poor installation
might result in water leaks,
electrical shock, or fire.

result, effective after-sales service from the
manufacturer is critical.

MALFUNCTION EVAPORATOR AND CONDENSER COILS

Evaporator coils absorb heat from the surrounding air. When
these coils become chilly, ice forms on the exterior. The air
conditioner will either throw heated hair or no air at all if the
evaporator is surrounded by ice. Condenser coils evacuate
the heat extracted from the air outside the building. When
condensers get dusty or clogged, heat is trapped inside. As a
result, your air conditioner will have to work extra hard to keep
the room cold. However, regardless of how hard it works, heat
is not being vented outside owing to a filthy coil. As a result,
this cycle continues to put greater strain on your conditioner.
It may possibly disintegrate totally.

PRINCIPLES

An air conditioner draws hot air from a
certain region, cools it down using a
compressor and a network of coils
within, and then returns the cold air to
the location where the warm air was
first drawn in. Almost every air
conditioning system is based on this
idea. A room can be cooled very rapidly
with an air conditioner, and it doesn't
use much electricity. The thermostat
that was installed in it detects a change
between the temperature you select
and the air in the room. Through the
grille, hot air is taken from the indoor
unit's base and passes through some
pipes where cooling liquid or refrigerant
is leaking.

Condensation in the room is lessened because to the
evaporator coil's ability to absorb heat while expelling
moisture from incoming air. In the case of split air
conditioning, this heated refrigerant gas is subsequently
passed to the compressor that is housed on the exterior
unit. The cooling gas is heated by the compressor since
compressing a gas increases its heat. The final part,
known as a condenser, is where this hot, high-pressure
gas then travels.

Case Study Building

Project name : Riverdale Residence
Developer : CMS Property Development Sdn. Bhd

Riverdale Residences is a leasehold semi-detached house development. It
is an elegantly designed two-story semi-detached home complex. Lorong
Stutong, Kuching, Sarawak is the address of this home. CMS Property
Development is the project's developer. CMS Property Development Sdn
Bhd is a small, privately held real estate business in Malaysia that has
completed three projects.
Riverdale Residences is located in a desirable neighborhood. It features an
exquisite appearance and a highly modern idea. It is really large and has all
of the most recent conveniences. The concept is aimed towards families
looking for a large and comfortable living space. Riverdale Residences are
close to the facilities of the surrounding area. Residents who have
automobiles may easily get to town via different services, and the residence
is only 10-15 minutes from Kuching.
Even though Riverdale Residences is a very luxury residential property but
it has yet to be equipped with smart technologies like smoke detector and
smart air-conditioning. So based on this assignment report, we have
earlier discussed and proposed about smart technologies to be equipped
at Riverdale Residences.

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, large-scale adoption of the Smart Home might
aid in addressing some of the key problems of the twenty-first
century, such as increasing energy consumption efficiency or
enabling the spread of cutting-edge services for a rapidly
aging global population. The market for smart home
technology is expected to reach $1 billion by 2022,  making it
the most developed area of the Internet of Things. The appeal
is obvious: having more knowledge, more power, and more
automation over your house enables you to make wiser
choices and make the most use of your scarce resources.
Smart home technology has the potential to significantly
improve life. Homeowners, as well as developers and
integrators who offer the technology that customers want to
design the home of their dreams, may all benefit from this
trend in a variety of ways.
