What is a smart home?

A group of home appliances which operates independently and remotely via a shared network is known as “smart home technology”.

Look at the TV, speakers, lights, security systems, and other gadgets as an example of how they are all connected to a network. Each gadget here can be controlled through a single application on your phone and hence it will be called as the new age smart home automation.

The new trend of “smart homes” is a cool and gen-z way to keep up with technological innovation in the real estate market. To cater the gen-z homebuyers, these AI innovations and automations make the real estate market more interesting for them.

How does Smart Home Technology Work?

A smart home isn't a collection of disparate smart devices and appliances, but rather ones that work together to create a remotely controllable network.

Smart home devices like lights, thermostats, security systems and kitchen appliances, all these are controlled by an AI home automation controller, and it is also called the smart home hub. This controller is basically a hardware device that acts as a server point of the smart home systems and this device can sense, process data and control wirelessly. The server connects all the disparate apps into a single smart home app that homeowners can control remotely. Some of the smart home hubs available in the market are Google Home, Amazon Echo, and Wink Hub. There are smart home systems which are operated via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to connect to the smart home network, while others depend on wireless systems such as Alexa Zigbee or Z-Wave.

Smart home devices are set to follow certain rules, commands, schedules, or they can also be programmed manually like voice note or commands via home assistants devices like Alexa or Google Assistant. Example you can remotely control a smart lighting system adjusting lighting as needed.

Ai Smart Home Automation Is Likely to Be Selected by Homebuyers for Three Core Reasons:

  • Improved Smart Access Control and Home Security

    Through sophisticated biometric authentication techniques like face detection and identification, retinal scans, fingerprint scans, and others, AI-enabled smart locks and security cameras can assist in monitoring and granting access only to authorized people.

    As a result, people can be recognized by smart cameras, who can then grant or refuse access as necessary. AI enables smart home systems to carry out their basic functions automatically while alerting the owner of any questionable activity. This enhances the overall safety of the residents and home by enabling the homeowner to take any necessary action immediately. This also saves energy and increases overall system efficiency.

  • Ai Has the Ability to Drastically Decrease the Consumption of Energy and Deliver Cost Effective Results

    AI is capable of understanding how users use energy and adapting lighting, temperature, and other settings in real time to minimize energy consumption.

    Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered smart home systems can keep an eye on appliances, forecast how much energy they will use, and then modify their usage to keep energy consumption within a given range.

  • Enhanced Living Experience

    A smart device like thermostat makes living at home more comfortable and convenient without making any manual adjustments and settings by letting AI learn the user's day-to-day routine and adjust the home temperature as per the need.

    Moreover, AI can help smart home devices connect and integrate better. For example, a smart lighting system can make automated illumination adjustments based on the time of day or the user's activities throughout the entire house.

    Importantly, AI can make it possible for smart home devices to provide cutting-edge capabilities like Face Recognition, Motion Sensor and other complex security solutions.

Examples of Smart Home Technologies

Nearly every aspect of life where technology has entered the domestic space - including light bulbs, dishwashers and other appliances - has seen the introduction of a smart home alternative:

  • Smart TVs - A smart TV is connected to the internet for accessing content across different platforms like Amazon Prime, Jio Cinema, Netflix and other online streaming platforms. The upcoming smart TVs also feature voice and gesture recognition.
  • Smart Lighting Systems - Smart lighting systems enable a user to not only control remotely but also adjust lighting when there are occupants in the room, as needed. Smart lights also function or adjust based on daylight availability.
  • Smart Thermostats - Smart thermostats help users to schedule, monitor, and remotely control the room temperature. This device is integrated with Wi-Fi for optimum utilization. It also learns the user behavior and automatically modifies the setting as per the need and requirement for maximum efficiency and comfort.
  • Smart Door Locks - This smart door lock system enables homeowners to grant or deny access to the visitors. Smart locks also detect homeowners and automatically unlock the door.
  • Smart Security Systems - With smart security cameras and doorbells, such as rings, residents can monitor their homes when they're away. Smart motion sensors can easily recognize the difference between its residents, visitors, pets and thieves and can send notifications to authorities or homeowners if any suspicious behavior is detected.
  • Smart Pet and Lawn Care System - Pet care can be automated for timely feeding to the pets. Indoor plants and lawns can be watered by setting a fixed time.
  • Smart Kitchen Appliances - Smart kitchen appliances includes items like coffee makers, refrigerators, cookers, toasters, utensil washers, washing machines and dryers. Each appliance can be set and adjusted as per the requirement. There are many top brands like Samsung, LG, Phillips, Wonderchef, Kent RO, and more such brands in the market offering these kinds of smart kitchen gadgets.
  • Smart Household Monitors - Household smart system monitors can sense a power surge and turn off appliances, sense smoke and alert the residents to get out of the home, sense water failures and turn off the water so the home doesn't flood.
  • Smart Wall Plugs - Smart plugs are connected through wall sockets to transform ordinary home devices to smart home devices. Home items  like lamps, lights and ceiling fans, can be controlled remotely via mobile apps and voice assistants like Alexa.
