Smart Home
A “smart home” refers to a private residence that supports automation through the communication between electronic devices. Data can be collected and monitored through environmental sensors which then can lead to greater control or automated responses, increasing the efficiency and safety of the smart home. These devices are able to monitor household electrical appliances, as well as the usage of water, electricity, and gas throughout the residence. Current applications in a smart home include, but are not limited to:
Lighting, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC); the ability to monitor and control energy usage throughout the home
Security; the accessibility of residents to view surveillance cameras over the internet and the ability for doors and windows to be locked remotely for improved security
Gas leakage and smoke detection; the increased safety and prevention of various accidents through sensor monitoring of CO2, smart meters, and other peripherals.
Pet activity Monitoring; Pet activities can be monitored over the internet, with the capability to also verbally or visually interact with the pet through various devices.
In addition, further transformation and growth in smart home automation is being pursued with the development of home gateways and artificial intelligence control devices, including voice recognition gadgets (e.g., Amazon Echo). With the monitoring and automation of smart devices, many accidents become easily preventable and the efficiency, safety and security of homes are fostered.
