Abstract

CALVOPINA, Adrián; TAPIA, Freddy  and  TELLO-OQUENDO, Luis. Using the Alexa virtual assistant as an interaction tool for climate monitoring in smart homes by Raspberry Pi and DarkSky API. RISTI [online]. 2020, n.36, pp.102-115. ISSN 1646-9895.  https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.36.102-115.

During the last few years, the development of home automation has increased thanks to the use of Internet of Things (IoT) capabilities provided by emerging technologies such as Raspberry Pi. This allows us to automate tasks at home or monitor specific parameters. This article proposes an improvement in the interaction between the smart home automation system and the end-user using an intelligent voice assistant instead of mobile applications or a local web platform. Furthermore, other sources of information for weather forecasts are explored, such as application programming interfaces (APIs) that provide this service.

Keywords : Raspberry Pi; Intelligent Voice Assistant; Weather; Alexa.
