Easy Architecture, Powerfull Features
RNDS is designed to sense if the users are home and to understand what they are doing. It detects the level of noise in every room and determinates where strong noises comes from.

Sharing a flat with other students can sometimes be difficult: different flatmates can have different schedules, and, furthermore, each person may have his own personal habits.
It is not always simple to tell others we cannot perform our tasks because of their behaviour, especially if we don’t know them well enough: this can be a cause of stress.
RDNS is designed to solve this issues, making cohabitation easy: it is an intelligence system able not just to understand, but to proactively react to users needs, pairing every user demands with the urges of other flatmates.
Flatmates will also be able to see each other statuses and to get a daily feedback, depending on how much they have respected others’ statuses.
RNDS is designed to sense if the users are home and to understand what they are doing. It detects the level of noise in every room and determinates where strong noises comes from.
View System ArchitectureThe goal of this system is to make cohabitation, even among people with different habits, easier. The system will be able to detect through the user’s smartphone the sound level heard by every user, and it will act to make sure that every user’s preference will always be respected. First of all RNDS will try to solve the problem itself, closing the door of the noisy user, then it will advise the users that are still disturbing other flatmates with a flashing light, while lowering the volume of their smart devices.
Unique Design, easy interfaces: RNDS is just the keeper of the future (blue features will not be implemented - for a complete, more traditional list of features, look below!)
RNDS can adapt to different situations: every new home is a new environment, made of users & common areas. It can be a simple 2 bedroom, 1 shared space flat, or an entire villa. Just a few settings on the online app, and it knows your home.
Every person is different: some of us prefer silence, others love noise. Some people like to sleep in the dark, other people can only have a good rest with a light on. Let RNDS know how you love living, it will do its best to make you happy!
RNDS knows when you are home and when you are out, automatically, But you can also interact with the system: update you status by either choosing from a list of preset ones (e.g. “studying” or “sleeping”) or by personalizing your own.
The system tries to adapt the house environment, basing his choices on user's preferences and behaviour: if you are studying and you like it nice and quiet, but in that moment the house is too noisy, RNDS will close the doors and lower the noise of other user's devices to help you pass that hard exam!
You love playing saxophone, and don't want to give it up, but other flatmates like it quiet most of the time? When you have the urge to play, you won't have to inquire the whole house in order to understand if it is a good moment to do it! RDNS gives you a green light when no other user can be disturbed on the app, while your room light will flash to warn you you're being too noisy. Don't have to turn it off, it will do it automatically when you are out!
You forgot about your mate's important exam? no problem! The system warns you, if you are being too noisy in the wrong moment and you did not realise
Noise can be a big issue among flatmates, but so can lights, blinds and windows. RNDS tries to solve it all, applying the same sharing rules it applies to noise also to lights, windows and doors.
Whether you are one of those who always forget o closing windows & doors, or you are among those who cannot leave the house without checking if everything is set a hundred times, we have you covered: shared settings apply to the house leaving, so that noone will have to be worried if the laziest flatmate is the last leaving the house, RNDS knows you are going out and does the job for you: in your room only, or in the whole house, if you are the last one going out. How could you make without it.
It can be just your lights, windows, doors, tvs, stereos and phone, or all your devices: RNDS can potentially control anything in the house, from the water heater and the heating in your room, that can be turned on on your way home, to the coffee machine and the oven. Like having a real house keeper ready to make you feel special, everyday.

RNDS can understand if a specific person needs calm. It can also detect noise and adjust the environment to the preferences of those who live it.
Every change of a user's status will be considered, immediately. You time is precious and we know it: every second spent at home must be worth remembering.
It takes into account the specific preferences of each user, in order to create the most appropriate enviroment at all times: everything to make you feel special
The system works autonomously, unless you require a change: users will be informed of every action that the system takes, but just if they want to. Interecting with it is fairly simple: you clik, and before you say "RNDS", it is done.
RDNS regulates doors, blinds, speakers, lights, accordingly to the preferences of the users in the space in that moment: you will feel that the enviroment is taking care of everything you need in order to make cohabitation really easy.
It just knows what you need!
