Automatic Supervision of Temperature,Humidity,and Luminance with an Assistant Personal Robot

Smart environments and ambient intelligence (ami) technologies are defining the future society where energy optimization and intelligent management are essential for a sustainable advance. mobile robotics is also making an important contribution to this advance with the integration of sensors and intelligent processing algorithms. this paper presents the application of an assistant personal robot (apr) as an autonomous agent for temperature,humidity,and luminance supervision in human-frequented areas. the robot multiagent capabilities allow gathering sensor information while exploring or performing specific tasks and then verifying human comfortability levels. the proposed methodology creates information maps with the distribution of temperature,humidity,and luminance and interprets such information in terms of comfort and warns about corrective actuations if required. © 2017 jordi palacín et al.
