Be Future Ready
Smart homes are all the rage right now. Here’s all you need to know to make your space smarter and innovative.
Artificial intelligence has made smart homes a reality that is affordable. We are surrounded with smartphones, smart TVs, smart cars, smart buildings, smart banking, smart meters, smart cities and even smart citizens. From a mere concept, the word ‘smart’ has evolved into a language of its own.
THE VIRTUAL ASSISTANT
Virtual assistants like Amazon Alexa, Google Home and Apple Siri, let you control everything with voice commands. Whether it is turning off the air purifiers, scheduling of appliances or customising Philips Hue lights to turn on just in time to welcome you home, everything is possible.
GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
AI can also monitor electricity consumption. This is done through the usage of smart fittings in the wash rooms, or smart night-lights, which turn on automatically through motion sensors.
SAFE AND SOUND
Connected home security is the answer to living a carefree and secure life. Popular smart home devices, including security cameras work with Philips Hue to turn on lights the moment movement is detected. Philips Hue can even randomise a typical light usage to mimic presence even if the homeowners are away.
LIGHT IT RIGHT
Imagine hosting a party at home where the colour of the lights mimics the music beats. Or watching the latest season of Game of Thrones and your room flushes with the icy white colour showing on your TV screen. Smart devices like Philips Hue can transform your room into an entertainment arena.
HEALTH FIRST
Studies have shown that our body’s circadian rhythm is influenced by exposure to light. Using Philips Hue, you can create the perfect setting (day or night) for every part of your day and enhance your well-being.
As we make giant strides in technology every day, the plethora of options continue to grow. Choose wisely.
