Make Your Home Intelligent

in #dxchain6 years ago

Smart home Technology, also known as home automation, provides homeowners safety, comfort, convenience and energy efficiency by allowing them to control smart devices, frequently by a smart home program in their smartphone or other networked device. A component of the net of things (IoT), smart home systems and devices often operate together, sharing consumer usage data among themselves and automating actions based on the homeowners' tastes. Among the most touted benefits of home automation is providing reassurance to homeowners, permitting them to monitor their homes remotely, countering dangers such as a forgotten coffee maker left on or front door left unlocked.

Smart homes are also beneficial For the elderly, providing monitoring that can help seniors to remain at home comfortably and safely, as opposed to moving into a nursing home or requiring 24/7 home care.

Unsurprisingly, smart homes can accommodate user preferences. For example, as soon as you arrive home, your garage door will open, the lights will go on, the fireplace will roar and your favorite tunes will begin playing on your own smart speakers.

Home automation also helps the same holds for appliances. With a smart irrigation system, your yard will only be watered when necessary and with the exact quantity of water necessary. With home automation, energy, water and other resources are used more efficiently, which helps save both natural resources and cash for the consumer.

Systems have struggled to become mainstream, in part because of their technical nature. A drawback of smart homes is their perceived complexity; some people have difficulty with technology or will give up on it with the initial annoyance. Smart home producers and alliances are working on reducing complexity and improving the consumer experience to make it enjoyable and beneficial for users of all types and technical levels.
For home automation systems to be truly effective, apparatus have to be interoperable regardless of who manufactured them, using the same protocol or, at least, ones that are complementary. As it is such a nascent market, there's no gold standard for home automation yet. However, standard alliances are partnering with producers and protocols to guarantee interoperability and a seamless user experience.

If hackers are able to infiltrate a smart device, they could potentially turn off the lights and alarms and unlock the doors, leaving a home defenseless into a break-in. Further, hackers could potentially access the homeowner's network, leading to worse attacks or data exfiltration. In addition to security, many smart house opponents worry about information privacy. The report found most of customers are concerned about the privacy of their data shared by their smart home devices. While smart home device and platform manufacturers may collect consumer information to better tailor their products or offer new and improved services to clients, trust and transparency are critical to producers building trust with the users of their smart products. In simple smart home scenarios, events can be timed or triggered. Timed events are based on a clock, as an instance, lowering the blinds at 6:00 p.m., while triggered events rely on actions in the automated system; for example, when the operator's smartphone approaches the door, the wise lock unlocks and the smart lights go on. Machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) are becoming increasingly popular in smart home systems, allowing home automation software to adapt to their environments. While every smart home is a smart building, not every smart building is a smart home. Enterprise, commercial, industrial and residential buildings of all shapes and sizes -- including offices, skyscrapers, apartment buildings, and multi-tenant offices and residences -- are deploying IoT technology to improve building efficiency, reduce energy costs and environmental impact, and ensure safety, in addition to improve occupant satisfaction.

Lots of the same smart Technologies used in the smart home are deployed in smart buildings, including lighting, energy, heating and air conditioning, and security and building access systems.

For example, a smart building can reduce energy costs using sensors that detect how many occupants are in a room. The warmth can automatically adjust, putting cool air on if sensors detect a complete conference room, or turning down the heat if everyone in the office has gone home for the day.

Smart buildings can also connect to the smart grid. Here, smart building components and the electrical grid can “talk" and “listen" to each other. With this technology, energy supply can be managed efficiently, maintenance can be dealt with proactively and power outages can be responded to more quickly.

Beyond these benefits, smart maintenance. Janitors, for example, can refill toilet supplies when usage or maintenance and Failures can be predicted on building refrigeration, elevators and lighting systems.
