Smart Homes becoming more affordable
September 23, 2008
Don’t get me wrong, Smart Homes are still expensive, but they are becoming less exclusive as they used to be. More and more ‘normal’ people are turning their dreams of a Smart Home into a reality.
In a Smart Home, every room is controlled by a panel. Each room in the house will have one in, and this allows you to control all of the devices that are connected to these ‘magic boxes’. The remotely controlled panels, can cost upwards of £1,000 each.
Other benefits to a Smart Home include lighting software that can even predict where you might go next. The software will turn the lights on using the motion sensors in the ceiling.
You can opt for a wireless Smart Home, but according to industry watchdogs, the technology is a couple of years away from being completely reliable & able to function everything needed in the Smart Home.
Smart Homes also offer unparallelled security.
Expect the costs to keep on falling as the technology behind it keeps on getting cheaper. And whatever the cost, a safe secure home that you are in full control of is surely priceless!!!
