An accessible display design was proposed to control home area networks through a tablet interface. The design was implemented over a tablet to control domestic devices through a home network controller prototype. Research was conducted interviewing people with disabilities in Brazil to evaluate the design. This consolidated an accessible interface for controlling home networks that addressed the main requirements of a diverse group of impairments.

Accessible display design to control home area networks
1. ACCESSIBLE DISPLAY DESIGN TO CONTROL HOME
AREA NETWORKS
ABSTRACT
Recently, the social inclusion and technical aid to assure autonomy to people with
disabilities are getting attention all over the world. This work presents a display design for
accessible interaction in home area networks. Based on a research on the accessible interfaces
state of the art, an interface design was proposed. This interface was implemented over a
Tablet that controls domestic devices through a home network controller prototype. In order
to evaluate the design, a research was conducted, interviewing people with disabilities in
Brazil. This research consolidated a feasible accessible interface to control home area
networks pointing out the main requirements considering a diversified group of impairments.
EXISTING SYSTEM
In the present system, controlling the home networks is by switching the board
which needs some human effort. But for the disabled person, they need to give more effort
for those things. It’sFocusing on the use of home area networks to improve disabled people’s
autonomy. Thinking about users with disabilities, it is necessary to invest efforts in the
research and development of accessible interfaces, through the perspective of a universal
design that iseasy to use and learn how to use.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
In the proposed system, we propose accessible display design to control home
area network. By using a smart phone the home networks will be controlled by using our
2. system.This system will be very helpful for the disabled persons. By using a GPRS module
the home networks will be controlled from anywhere. So the power consumption will be
provided by using this proposed system.
