In this paper, we propose an intelligent dialogue agent for the IoT home. The goal of the proposed system is to efficiently control IoT devices with natural spoken dialogue. This system is made up of the following components: Spoken Language Understanding for analyzing textual input and understanding user intention, Dialogue Management with a State Manager that consists of dialogue policies, Context Manager for understanding the environment, Action Planner responsible for generating a sequence of actions to achieve user intention, Things Manager for observing and controlling IoT devices, and Natural Language Generation that generates natural language from computer-based representation. This system is fully implemented in software and is evaluated in a real IoT home environment.
