Examples of technologies for the Smart Home
Smart Thermostats
Smart thermostats, like the Google Nest, come with built-in Wi-Fi, allowing users to program, monitor, and remotely control home temperatures. These devices also learn user behaviors and automatically adjust settings to provide maximum comfort and efficiency. Smart thermostats can also report energy usage and remind users to change filters.
Smart Locks and Smart Garage Door Openers
Homeowners can use smart locks and smart garage door openers to grant or deny access to visitors. Smart locks can also detect when residents are nearby and unlock doors for them.
Smart Security Cameras and Security Systems
With smart security cameras and smart doorbells, like Ring, residents can monitor their homes while they're away. Smart motion sensors can distinguish between residents, visitors, pets, and intruders and can send notifications to authorities if suspicious behavior is detected.
Smart Kitchen Appliances
Brands like LG, GE, and Samsung offer various types of smart kitchen appliances. These appliances include smart coffee machines that can automatically brew a fresh cup at a programmed time; smart refrigerators that track expiration dates, make shopping lists, or even create recipes based on currently available ingredients; smart pots and toasters; and, in the laundry room, smart washing machines and dryers.
