Abstract
This paper demonstrates the concept of reusing discarded smartphones to connect the end-of-life of e-wastes with the start-of-life of smart buildings. Two control-related and one communication-related case studies have been conducted experimentally to evaluate the applicability. Diverse controlled systems, control tasks, and algorithms have been considered. In addition, the sufficiency of communication with external agents has been quantified. The proof-of-concept experiments indicate the technical feasibility and applicability to typical tasks with satisfactory performance. As the capabilities of smartphones improve over time, higher computing performance and lower communication latency can be expected, which enhances the prospect of the proposed reuse concept.
