Monitoring
Monitoring means that users can check in on their devices remotely through an app. For example, someone could view their live feed from a smart security camera.
Welcome to Home Automation, the ability to control all your home electronics remotely.
Leaving home for the weekend was never easier.
One command and
all lights, geysers, A/cs shut themselves off, home security arms itself
— and you are all set to go.
For one it’s convenient but more importantly, it adds to the convenience and helps you save on electricity bills.
For instance, you could trigger the air conditioner of your living room an hour before you get home. Enter a home that is already comfortable and ready to welcome you.
Home automation can also lead to greater safety with the Internet of Things devices like security cameras and systems.
The Internet of Things, commonly known as IoT, refers to any device that’s connected to the Internet that isn’t normally; for example, a smart light bulb that you can turn on and off via an app. All home automation devices are IoT devices, which can be automated to trigger one another.
Home automation needs a stable running internet connection.
Once that is in place it works on three levels:
Monitoring means that users can check in on their devices remotely through an app. For example, someone could view their live feed from a smart security camera.
Control means that the user can control these devices remotely, like panning a security camera to see more of a living space.
Finally, automation means setting up devices to trigger one another, like having a smart siren turn on whenever an armed security camera detects motion.
A powerful tool, controls many different types of smart home devices that are connected to the Control4 Smart Home System across your home.
