Abstract The basic aim of the project is to enable a home to naturally and intuitively respond to its inhabitants needs. The team plans to implement basic home automation, specifically controlling the devices in a living room, utilizing gesture recognition from a Microsoft Kinect sensor. A user would be able to assign certain gestures to correspond with different actions. Actions in the living room include: turning on/off a device, dimming a light, controlling a TV or other A/V equipment and controlling a PC.
