Abstract: Remote appliance control is a core vision for the smart home. Even in the next few decades, it is inevitable that conversional appliances and smart devices will coexist together to help people live better. For this reason, this paper proposed a remote control model for the conversional appliances to integrate with smart home environment. Based on the model, a smart home portal combined with video surveillance system was built to realise conversional appliance control in smart home. Due to the video-based control, total appliance control cycle is based on 'what you see is what you have done'. The main benefits of this model come from simple design, mature technologies, lightweight architecture, and practicable for implementation.
