There have been several commercial and research projects
on smart homes and voice recognition systems. Figure 1 shows
an integrated platform for home security, monitoring and
automation (SMA) from uControl [3]. The system is a 7-inch
touch screen that can wirelessly be connected to security
alarms and other home appliances. The home automation
through this system requires holding and interacting with a
large panel which constraints the physical movements of the
user [4].
