SUMMARY:

The number of IoT devices in the world grows exponentially and is expected to exceed 75 billion in the coming years. Its use in home automation processes has grown and, as a result, an increasing number of users without technical knowledge (or with reduced technical knowledge) have made use of these devices. The wide variety of manufacturers and the lack of standardization in the features available can generate doubts among users and lead them to make wrong settings, harming the management of these equipment. Performing these settings can be even more challenging for people with disabilities. According to data presented by IBGE, more than 45 million people have some type of disability, which corresponds to almost 24% of the population. Faced with these challenges, this work proposes a layered architecture, based on independent modules, where this architecture will allow, through voice commands and using natural language, a user can perform complex configurations, without the need for advanced technical knowledge regarding infrastructure or specifics of the network device used. For this purpose, among other technologies, natural language processing, machine learning and text-to-speech conversion will be used. A survey of the state of the art regarding solutions aimed at configuring, activating and monitoring devices is presented, as well as a prototype for validation and evaluation of the functioning of the architecture proposed in this research. So far, the prototype is receiving the intentions requested by the user and the destination server is already able to filter and identify the necessary parameters so that the commands can be generated and sent to the network device responsible for executing these commands.
