Abstract/Summary

Home automation is a system that has the technology to control devices automatically in order to convene the desires of security, comfort and efficiency. On the other hand, voice-based digital assistant such as Apple’s Siri provides a location independent access to the Internet and Local networks. This study focuses on implementing a home automation system through Siri’s capability of speech recognition and through Raspberry Pi as a low cost control system to automate home devices, namely the air cooler, door, lights, TV and window. SiriProxy is installed on the Raspberry Pi as a proxy server for Siri. By developing a SiriProxy plug-in, a set of commands for home automation could be customly create by the user.

The system has been tested and verified through speech recognition’s accuracy tests, response latency tests and success rate tests. A total of 34 subjects with different English accents tested a total of 14 voice commands with a total of 390 trials. The tests verified that the system’s average latency is at 2.12 seconds with an overall success rate at 93.3333% on at least 3 trials and 87.281% success rate on at least one trial.
