Smart home concept
Let's talk about what it takes to build a smart home.
To build a smart home you need multitude of things, thank God for the WIFI, we do not need to connect any of those together. First you need intelligent products, IoT, after you need a vocal assistant, you surely want to control your home with voice command. As we want a smart home, we will need to save data, so we need a storage solution, to finish we need an application who make your home smart.
IoT, Internet of things
Smart home won't build itself, if you want your home to me smart you need to upgrade your products to intelligent products. Right now, we are not on the market, make sure you buy upgradable product, if they can be upgraded, we can remotely install the protocol. More you install intelligent products, more your home is intelligent, for example movement detectors, infrared detectors, day-to-day life does not do anything, but very useful for the smart home application.
Make sure your router is powerful enough to manage several connected objects.
Your vocal assistant it's a must, but not required, you can control everything with applications. The best way to build a smart home is to have a vocal assistant in every room, when you are in a room you don't have to say, open the light in the master bedroom, only, open the light. Our cPad is smart, it can detect the day light, detect if activity in the room and open the light if needed, it will also take decision based on the time; example if you wake up at 2:00 am, going to the bathroom, the light will only open at 25%.
To make a smart home, we need information about your home and your lifestyle. To offer you to open the television or put some music we need to understand you. To alert you for any problem, the first step is to define what is a normal situation. We don't want you to configure anything, with connected object we can see your environment and interact with you. All this information must be stored somewhere, MYAG recommend a network attached storage.
To make smart home, you need smart applications, multiple layers of application.
First, IoT, intelligent product that can be contacted by vocal command and can alert you. This is defined by the manufacturer.
Second, specialize application per room, cPad, application that can interact with you, based on your lifestyle and the room. Example: closing the light because an inactivity in a room.
Third, smart home application, a global application who can take complicated decision based on multiple factors. Example: your smart watch notify that you fall asleep, the application can close all the lights, close the garage door, lock the door, open external light, disable moving detector in the living room, because you are sleeping on the couch, put the alarm on, close the television, drop temperature in every room, but the living room, turn off the oven, etc.
