Abstract
Internet of things is a rapidly expanding area with new exciting devices being developed each year. Traditional Internet of Things devices are usually controlled through a smart phone which can be exhausting and overwhelming with multiple applications needed to monitor a set of devices. This thesis explores an alternative technology platform and a single accompanying application to discover, interact and monitor smart devices. An application was developed for Google Glass to discover and control a Philips Hue light bulb and a Sonos WiFi speaker. Glass and the developed application were tested and evaluated against an iPad by twelve test subjects. Semi-structured interviews were held and two different quantitative tools were used to... (More)

Traditional Internet of Things devices are usually controlled through a smart phone which can be exhausting and overwhelming with multiple applications needed to monitor a set of devices. This thesis explores an alternative technology platform and a single accompanying application to discover, interact and monitor smart devices. An application was developed for Google Glass to discover and control a Philips Hue light bulb and a Sonos WiFi speaker. Glass and the developed application were tested and evaluated against an iPad by twelve test subjects. Semi-structured interviews were held and two different quantitative tools were used to determine which solution subjects favored. The results show that Google Glass is perhaps not the right tool to use today, but show potential to become a preferred technology in the future. (Less)
