  2. Home Automation • We have appliances in our dorm rooms and home. • Stereo • Computer • Lamps • Fans • All appliances that are plugged into an electrical socket are all connected via the wires in the building.

  3. Home Automation (continued) • X10 manufactures a device (a controller) that can monitor and send signals on the electric wiring in a building. • The controller is plugged into an unused electric socket. • From a remote control and computer interface we can tell the controller to send particular signals over the electric wires.

  4. Home Automation (continued) • X10 also manufactures receivers that are installed between an appliance and the wall socket that the appliance is plugged into. • We can then, from the remote control, tell the controller to send a signal to the receiver to turn the appliance on and off.
