In this paper, we describe the "soft remote control system" that provides easy control of home installed appliances to improve the inhabitant's comfort. This system is feasible to control various home appliances naturally by recognizing the user's hand gestures in the "intelligent sweet home". The user selects the device that he/her wants to control by pointing it with his/her hand. Then, the user can command operation of the desired function via a predefined hand gesture. The approach complements the inconvenience of the conventional remote controllers giving additional freedom to persons with movement deficits and people without disabilities.
