Houses

Building and designing houses can be an exciting way to incorporate things into a house. Smart House ideas are included below.

Speaker System
An installed speaker system through out the house. Announcments could be made to let everyone know what time to be at dinner. After an announcment is said, the mic's next to each speaker system could record what the person says in the room for a 10-15 second period. All these recordings are recorded and then can be lisened to one at a time from the announcement box. The place in the house that has the higher probability of someone being there would have the live track with the announcer.

Center of Mass
Underneath the floors between the foundation and the floor boards could be a force sensor. They could be callabrated to know when a person was. By using Center of Mass formulas and wireless transmitters from the force sensors, a computer could calculate exacly where one person was, or in a party situation, where most people were gathered. Graphs and pictures could be made to show paths over time.

Heating

 * Heating can be shifted around from vent to vent by using data from the center of mass network.
 * The heating vents can be made of a non-conductive material so the air is not being wasted in the transmition. Although a minor suttlety, not difficult to change.

Lighting

 * Lighting can be automatically turned on and off by using data from the center of mass system. Having a fade from on to off, and off to on will make the light easier on the eyes. The center of mass data system can project where the person is going, based on a probability of where the person has been and what time of day it is to have the lights ready when the person get's there.

Power
Power in the house can be programed to save energy.
