In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to design a user interface for commercial Smart Home Systems (SHS), following the needs of visually or hearing impaired users. The interface is able to transform visual information and alarms into audio signals and vice versa by using a mobile application. The aim of the interface is to make a commercial SHS usable for visually or hearing-impaired people, while maintaining a high level of acceptability, due to the use of an inclusive device, i.e., the smartphone. © 2018 IEEE.

Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to design a user interface for commercial Smart Home Systems (SHS), following the needs of visually or hearing impaired users. The interface is able to transform visual information and alarms into audio signals and vice versa by using a mobile application. The aim of the interface is to make a commercial SHS usable for visually or hearing-impaired people, while maintaining a high level of acceptability, due to the use of an inclusive device, i.e., the smartphone. © 2018 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
