Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes determining an edge device has entered a control area containing smart appliance(s), accessing sensor data and relative displacement data via sensors of the edge device from the edge device responsive to determining the edge device has entered the control area, wherein the relative displacement data indicates a distance of the edge device from each smart appliance in the control area and is calculated by the edge device based on the sensor data, determining environmental parameters in the control area are not satisfied based on the sensor data, determining modifications to operating parameters of a first smart appliance responsive to determining that the environmental parameters are not satisfied, wherein the first smart appliance is selected based on the relative displacement data, and sending instructions for modifying the operating parameters based on the modifications to the first smart appliance.
