Estado da Técnica conhecidoKnown Prior Art
A automação residencial é originária da automação industrial que teve nos dispositivos Controladores Lógicos Programáveis (CLPs), datados da década de 60, uma grande revolução, devido aos avanços da microeletrônica. Muitas empresas de tecnologia migraram seu foco da automação industrial para residencial sem que, no entanto, percebessem as peculiaridades que cada um desses mercados demandava. Enquanto que na automação industrial é fundamental que os equipamentos operem com imunidade total a falhas, com respostas rápidas aos comandos e elevada precisão, na automação residencial essas condições podem ser afrouxadas. Por outro lado, a automação residencial exige equipamentos com um grau de acabamento superior, bem como interfaces muito mais agradáveis visualmente e intuitivas, a fim de atender aos diversos gêneros de usuários de uma residência. Ou seja, é preciso que os sistemas de controle atendam às necessidades desde crianças até mesmo idosos.Home automation comes from home automation.             that it had in the Logic Controller devices             Programmable PLCs dating from the 1960s, a large number of             revolution due to advances in microelectronics. Many             technology companies have shifted their focus from automation             industrial to residential without, however, realizing             the peculiarities that each of these markets             demanded. While in industrial automation it is             It is essential that equipment operate with full immunity from             failures, with quick response to commands and high             accuracy, in home automation these conditions can be             loosened. On the other hand, home automation requires             equipment with a higher degree of workmanship as well as             much more visually pleasing and intuitive interfaces, the             in order to cater to the diverse genres of users of a             residence. That is, it is necessary that the control systems             meet the needs of children, even the elderly.
De modo geral, a automação residencial está cada dia facilitando mais a vida dos moradores. Com a chegada de novas tecnologias, tem-se uma gama de possibilidades práticas e econômicas que utilizam a automação, desde a básica até a mais abrangente, em sistemas de integração para diversos ambientes. O resultado é um ambiente prático, confortável, agradável, valorizado e seguro, de acordo com o interesse do usuário. Ainda, se pode destacar a possibilidade de um controle gerenciador de energia, que monitore a distribuição de energia reduzindo assim substancialmente o consumo desnecessário.In general, home automation is increasingly             day making life easier for residents. With the arrival of             new technologies, you have a range of possibilities             practices that use automation from             to the most comprehensive in integration systems for             various environments. The result is a practical environment,             comfortable, pleasant, valued and safe, in accordance with the             user interest. Still, one can highlight the             possibility of a power management control, which             monitor power distribution thereby reducing             substantially unnecessary consumption.
Com a disponibilização das novas tecnologias atualmente encontradas no mercado, é possível realizar o controle de cenários de iluminação, controlando também a intensidade da luz. O controle de iluminação é um dos itens mais importantes em um sistema de automação residencial, o que permite que as luzes de uma residência respondam a sensores e comandos instalados pela casa. É possível, por exemplo, criar cenas de iluminação que moldam a residência de acordo com as necessidades do usuário. Ou seja, podem ser pré-programados cenários com intensidades de iluminação para o período do dia e para o período da noite, otimizando então o consumo de energia dos cômodos.With the availability of new technologies             currently found on the market, it is possible to perform the             control of lighting scenarios while also controlling the             light intensity. Lighting control is one of the items             most important in a home automation system, the             that allows lights in a home to respond to             sensors and controls installed by the house. It is possible, for             example, create lighting scenes that shape the residence             according to user needs. That is, they can be             pre-programmed scenarios with lighting intensities to             day time and night time, then optimizing             the energy consumption of the rooms.
Atualmente são conhecidos diversos sistemas que tem o intuito de gerenciar dispositivos que atuam sobre a iluminação, disparam os comandos para dispositivos de áudio e vídeos, controlam os comandos para eletroeletrônicos e eletrodomésticos em geral ou ainda gerenciam mobiliários da residência. Essas soluções atuam através de uma central controladora de todo o sistema da casa. A patente BR 10 2012 031431 2 apresenta um método para a configuração de uma interface de controle para controlar um sistema compreendendo um ou mais equipamentos de automação residencial ou predial. A interface de controle compreende uma tela de informação, sobre a qual pode ser exibida em uma escala de tempo. O método tem como etapas: definir uma pluralidade de associações, sendo cada associação definida entre um cenário e um momento de desencadeamento compreendido dentro do intervalo de tempo em que o cenário tem de ser desencadeado pela interface de controle; produzir um agrupamento de pelo menos uma porção das associações dentre a pluralidade de associações definidas e os momentos de desencadeamento de que são compostos em um intervalo de tempo de duração definida dentro do período de tempo; e posicionar uma marca de referência coletiva em uma escala de tempo correspondente ao grupo no intervalo de tempo. Contudo, a solução em questão consiste apenas em um sistema de agendamento de ações de um sistema de automação residencial, e não um sistema de automação residencial propriamente dito. There are currently several known systems that             has the purpose of managing devices that act on the             lighting, trigger commands for audio devices             and videos, control the controls for electronics and             appliances or manage furniture from             residence. These solutions operate through a central             controller of the entire house system. The BR 10 patent 2012             031431 2 presents a method for configuring a             control interface to control a system             comprising one or more automation equipment             residential or building. The control interface comprises             an information screen, which can be displayed on a             timescale. The method has as steps: define a             plurality of associations, each association being defined             between a scenario and a trigger moment             within the time frame in which the scenario             has to be triggered by the control interface; to produce             a grouping of at least a portion of the associations             between the plurality of defined associations and the moments             triggering compounds that are composed within a range of             time duration defined within the time period; and             position a collective reference mark on a scale of             time corresponding to the group in the time interval.             However, the solution in question consists only of a system             scheduling actions of an automation system             not a home automation system             itself.
Já a patente americana US20150077021 propõe uma solução que é composta por uma placa de interruptor de luz que inclui um transmissor sem fio para a transmissão de sinais de controle para um sistema de luz inteligente. A placa de interruptor de luz é colocada sobre um interruptor de luz convencional e impede que o usuário manipule o mesmo. A placa de interruptor de luz, inclui outro interruptor que o usuário pode manipular para ativar o transmissor, o qual transmite sinais de controle para ligar ou desligar o sistema de luz inteligente. Contudo a invenção proposta nesse documento consiste apenas em um interruptor sem fio, sem controle de luminosidade. Além disso, essa solução não faz parte de um “sistema” no sentido mais amplo, que permite gerenciar os cenários e demais aparelhos eletrônicos de uma residência de maneira prática.US patent US20150077021 proposes a             solution that is made up of a light switch board             which includes a wireless transmitter for the transmission of             Control signals for an intelligent light system. THE             light switch board is placed over a light switch             conventional light and prevents the user from manipulating it.             The light switch board includes another switch that             the user can manipulate to activate the transmitter which             transmits control signals to turn on or off the             Intelligent light system. However, the proposed invention             this document consists only of a wireless switch,             no brightness control. In addition, this solution does not             is part of a “system” in the broadest sense, which allows             manage the scenarios and other electronic devices of a             residence in a practical way.

O sistema também compreende um controlador de automação residencial, que se comunica com o processador e pelo menos um dispositivo de iluminação em comunicação, também, com o dispositivo de recepção e o controlador de automação residencial. O processador do dispositivo receptor é programado para enviar um comando para o controlador de automação residencial, especificando o efeito de luz ambiente determinado pelo processador, para ser associado com a porção do conteúdo de vídeo. O dispositivo de luz, produz o efeito de luz ambiente especificado no comando, quando a porção do conteúdo de vídeo é apresentada para o usuário. Entretanto, a solução em questão trata-se apenas de um gerador de efeitos de iluminação e não um sistema de automação. Da mesma forma que as tecnologias descritas anteriormente, essa solução não prevê a possibilidade do usuário controlar todos os cenários e aparelhos eletrônicos de modo remoto.US20140104498 uses a             system to control the effects of ambient light, which             comprises a receiving device including at least one             least one processor programmed to analyze the content of             input video to detect at least a portion of the             input video content and determine at least one             ambient light effect to be associated with the portion of the             Video content. The system also comprises a             home automation controller, which communicates with the             processor and at least one lighting device in             communication also with the receiving device and the             home automation controller. The processor of             receiving device is programmed to send a command             for the home automation controller by specifying the             ambient light effect determined by the processor to             be associated with the portion of the video content. THE             light device, produces ambient light effect             specified in the command when the portion of the content of             video is presented to the user. However, the solution in             issue is just an effect generator             lighting and not an automation system. The same way that             technologies described earlier, this solution does not             provides the possibility for the user to control all scenarios             and electronics remotely.
Referente a patente US20110141647, é constituída de um interruptor para instalações de circuitos elétricos contendo um controlador sem fio compatível com pelo menos uma tecnologia de controle de automação residencial. Um único interruptor pode operar, duas, três, ou quatro vias de circuito sem alteração, e sem recorrer a utilização de interruptores remotos. O interruptor inclui funções de processador para restaurar um estado prévio após a interrupção da energia, e para estabelecer um comando de estado durante a interrupção de energia. O interruptor usa dois relés para bloqueio de segurança, e ajusta a atuação dos relés com referência na forma de onda da potência, para redução do contato do arco com as cargas indutivas, capacitivas e de tungstênio. Contudo, a solução em questão consiste em um interruptor wireless com até 4 saídas, mas que não podem ser dimerizadas, ou seja, não é possível controlar os níveis de luminosidade dos cenários. Da mesma forma que os demais, não é um sistema de automação e, sendo assim, não é capaz de se conectar com outros dispositivos, formar uma rede, conectar-se à internet e gerenciar diversos cenários e situações.Referring to US20110141647, is incorporated             of a switch for electrical circuit installations             containing a wireless controller compatible with at least             a home automation control technology. a             Single switch can operate, two, three, or four way of             unchanged circuit and without the use of             remote switches. The switch includes functions of             to restore a previous state after             power outage, and to establish a power command.             state during power outage. The switch uses             two relays for safety lock, and adjusts the actuation             relays with reference to the power waveform to             reduction of arc contact with inductive loads,             capacitive and tungsten. However, the solution in question             consists of a wireless switch with up to 4 outputs, but             that cannot be dimerized, that is, it is not possible             control the brightness levels of the scenes. Of the same             like the others, it is not an automation system and, being             thus not able to connect with other devices,             form a network, connect to the internet and manage various             scenarios and situations.
Contudo, com base em todas as alternativas hoje disponibilizadas no estado da técnica, ainda não foi divulgado um sistema que ofereça dispositivos que proporcionem uso prático e eficiente dos elementos de controle residencial. Além disso, não se conhece no mercado atual a disponibilização de uma solução que proponha interruptores de gerenciamento de iluminação e tomada com tecnologia que permita o encaixe rápido de seus módulos ao sistema.However, based on all alternatives today             available in the state of the art, has not yet been             disclosed a system that offers devices that             provide practical and efficient use of the elements of             residential control.

Além disso, se verifica no estado da técnica atual a inexistência de um sistema de que forneça interfaces intuitivas com aparência estética agradável de interruptores. A necessidade de um sistema compacto que permita que o usuário controle todos os elementos que utilizam energia elétrica de uma residência de maneira ágil e versátil também são notáveis. Dessa forma, o desenvolvimento de um sistema de controle que permita a atualização das preferencias remotamente se faz necessário para atender de forma prática e eficiente os consumidores.In addition, it is verified in the current state of the art.             the absence of a system providing interfaces             intuitive with nice aesthetic appearance of             switches. The need for a compact system that             allow the user to control all the elements that             use electricity from a home quickly             and versatile are also remarkable. Thus, the             development of a control system that will allow the             remotely updating preferences is required             to serve consumers in a practical and efficient manner.
