Controller area network domotic prototype using GPRS and Ethernet interfaces for virtual monitoring applications

Nowadays there are three basic technological supports which are suffering an enormous development. First we could mention field buses applications, which are getting more and more important in domotics. The second one, Web and Internet applications, is becoming popular and accessible in the last time. Finally, the third support, based on GSM networking, make one of the most important development focus up to now. The proposed system is based on the mentioned idea, the importance of the nexus between these three technological supports, developing a domotic system using CAN, a field bus which has been used mainly in automotive, and interconnected to the Internet employing Ethernet networks and GSM nodes via GPRS protocol.
