This article proposes to integrate two entities, the Internet of Things and a cognitive dynamic system (CDS), and studies a smart home scenario as the application of interest. As a people-centric IoT, the smart home aims to enhance the intelligence level of the living environment and improve the quality of human life. Cognition, the distinct principles of which are perception-action cycle, memory, attention, intelligence, and language, can play a key role to pave the way for building truly smart homes. With cognition as its foundation, the engineering paradigm of CDS provides step-by-step guidelines for systematic development of smart homes. Hence, CDS can significantly contribute to the interactive IoT ecosystem.
