Smart Home

A "smart" home", or "smart house", is a term which is used to describe a house or residence which has different advanced automation systems. These systems will control lighting, temperature, multimedia, security, air conditioning, TVs, computers, entertainment, audio & video systems, and what not. They don't function separately but they "communicate" with one another and with the central control system. The control system then coordinates their work.

Installation of smart products gives the home various benefits – the same benefits that technology and personal computing have brought to us over the past 30 years. They are convenience and savings of time, money and energy.

Of course, the main idea is absolute convenience. Everything in the house can be looked after and controlled with a remote control or a laptop. It's like living in James Bond's house, which is not only cool, but creates a lot of practical benefits. Your smart equipment will know when to turn lights on and off, how much energy is required of them.

Plus, a computerized house can adapt to the way you live: it knows the time you turn the lights on in the morning, it knows what temperature you like your house to stay at, and it even knows when to open the garage door. Or, for example, when you come home from school or work, a sensor may detect that you've arrived home and switch on certain lights, deactivate various security measures, and warm up the living room. When you're going to bed, it may activate security sensors, draw all the curtains and turn off lights and appliances. Just how cool is that? It may all look like an episode from a sci-fi film, but with minimum movement and effort, you can tell your house exactly what to do for you.

The real convenience, though, is the feeling of peace this gives you. Did you close the fridge? Did you turn off the stove? Check the Internet once you get to school or work and tell the stove to turn itself off. And you're no longer worried about that.

Regardless of the technology, smart homes present some very exciting opportunities to change the way we live and work, and to reduce energy consumption at the same time. Home automation technology has developed so far, that the only limit is your imagination. There are endless further possibilities. Who knows what other systems will look like?

1. A smart house system controls different aspects of home life.

2. In a smart home the systems work individually.

3. Installation of smart products is very expensive.

4. A smart home learns and follows your lifestyle and habits.

5. Every time you come home, you switch on the smart system.

6. A smart home system automatically unlocks the door.

7. Smart technology can't be controlled from far away.

8. Smart technology has potential to develop in the future.
