Abstract: Aiming at the problems of the development in traditional smart home system based on singlechip microcomputer always falling in a dead cycle, which is the timeconsuming analysis, thus embedded realtime OS was applied to smart home. After the analysis of varieties realtime OS, an implementation scheme of smart home system based on MQX realtime OS was presented. The scheme, which was realized on the platform of Freescale 32bit microcontroller MK60DN512VLQ10 hardware and combined with MQX RealTime OS, was implemented with the acquisition of temperature, humidity, light intensity and the concentration of common gas. At the same time, the LabVIEW software was used for PC control platform program to realize data realtime monitoring. At last, the system was tested on the experiment platform. The results indicate that the system runs stably, collects data accurately and has exploring significance for embedded realtime OS applied to smart home system.
