HOW SMART HOME AUTOMATION CAN IMPROVE YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE

July 27, 2021 by Post

There’s no denying that the digital era is here and now. And with technological advancement, smart homes are no longer a thing of luxury. They are a basic necessity, with an increasing number of people giving their homes a high-tech makeover.

As smart-home technology is increasingly expected in homes, people prefer to invest in houses with intelligent functions. Gadgets like smart thermostats and motion-sensing devices have taken home convenience to a whole new level.

Common examples of smart home automation

Those who need a smart update around their homes can take ideas from some smart home technologies noted below.

  • Smart locks that can permit or deny visitors entry into the house
  • Smart kitchen appliances like refrigerators that track expiry dates, programmable coffee makers, and automated toaster and ovens
  • Smart household system monitors that can sense electrical fluctuations and turn off electrical appliances
  • Smart TVs embedded with voice or gesture recognition
  • Smart feeders for automated pet care

These are only some of the several smart technologies taking over homes in recent times. Studies reveal that the smart home industry will expand vastly by the year 2025.

Ways smart home technologies can make life easier

Technology has crept into nearly every aspect of human life and brought an immense amount of convenience. Here are some of them:

Enhanced safety

Homeowners can now keep an eye on everything that goes in and around their house through interconnectivity. Smart cameras and other security systems with features like live feed, 360-degree turns, motion sensors, and more have boosted home security. Alarms go off the very instant someone tries to break into the house.

Energy efficiency

Smart technology allows you to pre-program thermostats and set auto shut-off functions on devices like gaming consoles and TVs. Also, smart LED lights allow users to turn them on or off at their convenience. This type of energy management enables homeowners to save a considerable amount of money on utility bills.

Unbeatable customization

Doubtless, smart-home technology is increasingly expected in homes, and customization is perhaps its most significant advantage. You can have the window shades drawn automatically to adjust the lighting in your home. Motion sensing lights go on and off as you enter and leave a room. Some smart sprinklers have sunlight-based activation that ensures adequate watering of plants.

Remote access

Interconnectivity to a mobile, desktop, or laptop allows you to look into your home from anywhere in the world. For instance, you could be on holiday in the next city and still be able to keep a watch over your home. You can check if the garage door is closed, the sprinklers worked as programmed, and if you left any electronic devices on if you left in a hurry.

Video monitoring

You can have security cameras set up to monitor your young ones when they are home alone. You can also use this to keep a watch on elderly parents and rest assured that they are alright. A real-time video feed can show you any emergency that comes up, enabling you to take swift action.

A good thing about smart technology is that it isn’t necessarily expensive. You can add smart devices one by one over time. Each addition will make your home smarter and more efficient.
