Master's thesis presents the main aspects of the Internet of Things - IoT, with emphasis on technical fundament and modern day management via smart TV interface, that is virtually one of the most widely used devices in households. TV interface has a large surface area to display relevant information and control elements. The concept of management of the Internet of Things through smart TV interface, with integrated IoT gateway, is one of many solutions that will play an important role on consumer market in the future.
The introductory chapter describes the IoT and problem management. Furthermore, important IoT concepts are presented, such as building blocks, models of communication and the role of security systems, which are the basis of today's IoT solutions. Followed by a section which presents applications in the field of home automation. The focus is on how to manage the ambient lightning for improving the user comfort and efficiency of electricity consumption. TV interface is one of the possible solutions to manage the domestic IoT system, which is described in the chapter. A chapter is a detailed presentation of standards and protocols in the field of
home automation, which are the basis of today's IoT solutions. The focus is on key concepts relevant to understanding the technical background to pilot project. Standard for Industrial IoT solutions briefly touches chapter entitled Improvement of the MAC Layer in IEEE 802.15.4. And the last part presents a pilot system for mood lighting at home cinema. The solution is based on of the shelf components. At the time of writing this thesis, TV with an integrated IoT gateway is not available, but solution is rather built on a rudimental TV device, set top box and IoT gateway.
