Universidad de Oviedo - Infobotica Researcha Group has been working in the study of the interoperability between systems. This matter was investigated on the project DH Compliant, in which Infobotica Research Group was one of the main partners. The aim of this project was the development, implementation, certification and diffusion of an open standard universal that facilitates the integration and implementation of the service robots in the Digital Home. The DH Compliant project was funded by the Avanza Plan I+D. A second part of the project, DH Compliant II, is currently being carried out for further development. DH Compliant II is also funded by Avanza Plan I+D, and it will permit the integration and implementation of the service robots, devices and smart appliances in the home. Infobotica is also involved in the Smart Home Energy Project (SHE), fully financed by the Plan Innpacto I+D+I, related to the improvement of the energy efficiency in the homes. Besides, the group has participated in the investigation project TIC4BOT, which applied robotic developments in the health field. This is, the design and implementation of new services in the health field by means of innovative technologies as robotic platforms or mobile services.
