This paper has a background of SMMD (single media multi device) control
technology for causing various actual feeling effects about one media source.
SMMD technology adds metadata controlling arbitrary multiple devices in one
MPEG-4 media.
A home server produces a control command from metadata and delivers
control message to a sensory effect device using the ZigBee communication.
A device produces an internal interface command or specific IR code for
controlling an actual feeling effect device. IR codes are different by products
and each manufacturer. A home server has the function of learning IR codes
and manages the IR code profile.
A ZigBee coordinator manages several ZigBee end devices. A ZigBee end
device controls some sensory effect devices. We propose a control
mechanism about ZigBee control and ZigBee-to-IR control device and
implement a demo system
