Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - What if your home could automate itself without relying on cloud subscriptions, remote servers, or a manufacturer's app Modern smart-home products are convenient, but they often come with hidden trade-offs: recurring fees, limited interoperability, privacy concerns, and the risk that a device may stop working when a company changes its platform. This book shows you how to build a smart-home system that you own, control, and understand from the hardware level upward.Designed for makers, engineering students, IT professionals, and advanced hobbyists, this guide provides a complete roadmap for creating a secure, locally managed home-automation platform using a single-board computer as the central controller.Inside this book, you will learn how to: - Install and configure a reliable home-automation hub- Connect temperature, motion, light, humidity, and air-quality sensors- Read wiring diagrams and safely integrate low-voltage devices- Create automation rules that continue operating even during internet outages- Implement local voice control without sending audio to third-party services- Segment your home network to isolate automation devices from personal computers and data- Add cameras, door sensors, and access-control systems with local video processing- Monitor energy consumption and optimise lighting and climate control using real usage data- Expand the system from a single room to a full home, detached building, or multi-unit propertyRather than focusing on a single gadget or app, this book emphasises the engineering principles behind dependable home automation: reliability, redundancy, security, maintainability, and long-term scalability.You will also find: - Step-by-step hardware setup instructions- Practical wiring references- Working configuration examples- Security hardening checklists- Backup and disaster-recovery procedures- Accessibility considerations for ageing-in-place and assisted-living environments- Real-world deployment scenarios, including off-grid and solar-powered installationsWhether you are building your first automation project or designing a distributed system for a larger property, this book provides the technical depth needed to make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes.By the end of this guide, you will be able to design, deploy, secure, and maintain a smart-home infrastructure that operates on your terms.Take control of your home's automation system and build a solution that remains reliable, private, and fully under your ownership.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Have you ever wondered how a device small enough to fit in your hand can recognise speech, detect equipment failures before they occur, or identify visual defects in real time without relying on the cloud?Welcome to the world of embedded artificial intelligence, where machine learning models operate directly on resource-constrained devices, delivering fast, reliable, and energy-efficient intelligence at the edge. If you've ever questioned how advanced AI can run on a microcontroller with only a fraction of the memory available on a smartphone, this book provides the answers.TinyML and Edge Intelligence is a comprehensive, hands-on guide to designing, optimising, deploying, and maintaining machine learning applications on embedded systems. Written for engineers, developers, students, and technology professionals, it bridges the gap between machine learning theory and practical embedded implementation with clear explanations, real-world examples, and production-focused techniques.Inside this book, you'll learn how to: - Master embedded AI fundamentals by understanding microcontroller architecture, memory limitations, processing constraints, and power-efficient system design.- Optimise machine learning models using quantisation, pruning, knowledge distillation, and other techniques that reduce memory usage while maintaining performance.- Develop practical AI applications including keyword spotting, predictive maintenance, gesture recognition, anomaly detection, and embedded computer vision with complete implementation examples.- Deploy production-ready solutions through firmware integration, model updates, debugging strategies, performance monitoring, and embedded security best practices.- Design scalable edge intelligence systems that support reliable connectivity, distributed processing, and long-term deployment across real-world environments.Unlike many resources that focus exclusively on machine learning algorithms or embedded programming in isolation, this book brings both disciplines together. Each chapter explains not only how to implement a solution but also why specific engineering decisions matter, helping you develop the practical judgement required to build dependable, efficient, and maintainable intelligent devices.Whether you're an embedded systems engineer expanding your expertise, a machine learning practitioner deploying models beyond the cloud, a student building industry-ready skills, or a technical leader evaluating edge AI solutions, this book provides the knowledge and confidence to build intelligent systems that perform reliably in real-world conditions.By the end of this book, you'll understand how model architecture influences memory consumption, how power budgets shape hardware and software design, how to optimise AI for constrained environments, and how to transform prototypes into robust products ready for deployment.The future of artificial intelligence extends far beyond data centres. It lives in billions of intelligent devices operating at the edge processing data locally, responding instantly, protecting privacy, and delivering reliable performance wherever they're deployed.Build the knowledge. Master the technology. Create the next generation of intelligent embedded systems. This item is printed on demand.
