1. Group Introduction
- Dũng Nguyễn
- Eric Rode
- Victor Olasehinde
- Samad Abdus
2. Initial brainstorming ideas/concepts
- Using temperature sensor to nudge users not to use air conditioner when it is unnecessary or the air conditioner temperature is much lower than outside temperature. System can automatically opens the window, activate the fans…
- Gas sensor to prevent gas leakage, system can turn on the fan and open the window for ventilation, show warning light to users…
- RFID sensor to detect entrance and give guidance to users (wash your hands…), raise warnings if users don't follow
- Steam detector after showering to do ventilation
- PIR sensor to nudge people to exercise between the day
Smart bedroom: - Sense temperature, humidity while sleeping to adjust for better sleep - RFID to make user get rid of their phones before sleeping - Light changing while sleeping - Open the window in the morning - Play white noise while sleeping or alarm in the morning - Gas monitor to detect gas leakage while sleeping

4. Finalized Idea, description & Functions
Proposed main features, sorted by priority:
- Prevent phone usage
- Coffee-drinking habit alert
- Turn off unnecessary appliances
- Sleeping time reminder
- Automatic exposure to nature light in the morning
- Sleeping environment optimization (temperature, light, ventilation…)
- Noise and activity detection at night
Business logic:
- Prevent phone usage: If the phone is not present in the RFID sensor after the sleeping time, play warning noise and message
- Coffee-drinking habit alert: If user push the coffee maker button (left) after 5 PM, show message and alert to ask if the user is sure. If he presses again in the next 10s then a coffee is still brewed, after 6 PM refuse to brew coffee, otherwise proceed to emulate brewing a coffee
- Turn off unnecessary appliances: Once it is past bedtime, display a message to send the user to bed and do red LED light and buzzer. Once the phone is detected (relate to Prevent phone usage), stop sending user to bed and turn off all appliances. Send the system to night mode (window and door get looked, lights fan and coffee machine turn off)
- Sleeping time reminder: One hour before sleeping time show a reminder on the lcd and start dimming the light every 10 minutes. At sleeping time it should stay on until Prevent phone usage turns it off.
- Automatic exposure to nature light in the morning: One hour before Wake up time open the window and turn on the light slowly (reversed to sleeping time reminder). Once its wakeup time end night mode.
- Sleeping environment optimization (temperature, light, ventilation…): During night mode regulate the temperature in the room. The optimal sleeping temperature should be configurable (standard 17 degree). If it is hotter start the fan and if the humdity is above 60% open the window. If below these values close the window/stop the fan.
- Noise and activity detection at night: If the PIR detector detects movement in night mode, then play a song with buzzer so that the person relaxes and falls asleep again.
5. Future Improvements
- Automatically adjust the sleeping schedule of user by having them pushing the button when they wake up
