Imagine your home was as intuitive, safe and responsive as you wanted it to be? That it could take care of creature comforts like temperature control, lighting and be brewing a morning coffee all by itself. That it could monitor the big things like power consumption and safety. That it could make life easier and more efficient at the touch of a button or through pre-programmed commands. Lera Smart Home
Well that future is here and it’s available now courtesy of the Smart Home.
Here’s an insight into how and what Smart Homes can offer, and why it’s easier than you’d imagine embracing the future at your doorstep right now.
Connected
Major leaps in modern technology and particularly the Internet of Things means the world is more connected than ever before. In the home it started with small things like computers that could wirelessly talk with printers but has rapidly expanded to almost every item and function available in the home.
From ovens to fridges, and lighting, a whole range of once solitary appliances and fixtures now have the ability to be automated or controlled by sensors and switches. And it all happens at the touch of a button on your mobile phone or even via a simple voice command.
The convenience, practicality and security this simple connectivity affords is making a very real change to people’s lives. So, here’s what a Smart Home can do.
Comfort
It’s a cold winter’s night and a long commute from work lies ahead. You’re looking forward to an evening spent curled up on the couch and a home-cooked meal made easy. Your Smart Home is ready to assist.
Using your smart phone you activate a pre-programmed sequence that sees the curtains throughout your home close, the heating turn on to a comfortable 24 degrees, the exterior and interior lighting ready to welcome you, and the oven set to warm.
Control
The Smart Home is not just about comfort, it’s also about control, allowing you to monitor and change your environment automatically, instantly or even from afar.
With up-to-the minute information available, you can remotely access data like power consumption and security, while controlling a series of features or individual items within your home.
From closing the windows when it rains, to checking the energy efficiency of your home from afar, you have the control to monitor and alter your home environment no matter where you are.
Safety
For many people, safety is one of the first reasons they consider a Smart Home. The ability to monitor your property from inside or remotely allows a sense of security that is almost unprecedented.
Through connected sensors and surveillance, Smart Homes enable you to understand who’s approaching your home, or who’s within it. It can alert you to emergencies that may be occurring like a fire, and gives you the ability to respond to threats by shutting doors, turning off the electricity or shutting down a specific appliance.
How it works
Once the domain of futuristic movies, Smart Home technology is now very real, very current and very accessible. Set-up involves the installation of sensors that monitor your environment and switches, dimmers and appliances that can receive information. And setting up a Smart Home can be completed using the existing wiring in your house and the internet.
