Let Your Smart Home Create the Ideal Environment with Home Automation

Living Intelligently and Effortlessly with Automation

Unless you’ve been a wanderer in the Outback of Australia for the last decade, you’ve undoubtedly heard of smart homes. Designed to enhance your lifestyle and ease of living, they offer user-friendly interfaces that manage your home’s connected devices. Gone are the multiple remotes and smartphone apps. In their place are touchscreens, wall keypads, one handheld remote, and your voice.

As with all technology, there are different levels of integration. Some want to experience the latest lighting systems, including full-spectrum LED illumination and motorized shades. Others want the complete enchilada: the ability to control their lighting, climate, enhanced security, entertainment, and more with one touch. 

But it gets even better. If you’re looking for a smart home that responds with no effort on your part, creating the ideal environment for the time of day or activity, home automation is the answer. Here, we’ll explore what this technology brings and how it’s transforming homes in Newburyport, MA.

What Is Smart Home Control?

Smart home control allows you to manage your home from your chosen interface. For instance, when the sun’s glare catches your computer screen, you press a button on a touchscreen to lower one or every shade in your home office. When you head into the kitchen to make a meal, you press the ‘Cooking’ button on a keypad to create the ideal lighting. 

You can also manage and control your home remotely from the smartphone app. When it’s been a long day at work, and you’re looking forward to relaxing, you can prepare your home for your arrival from your app and turn on the landscape and entryway lights. Then, tap ‘Relax,’ and your smart home adjusts the temperature, streams a relaxing playlist through your house and outdoor areas, heats the spa, and changes the lighting to the color of the sunset. 

When managing your home via smart control, a command is required to adjust the environment. 

What Is Smart Home Automation?

On the other hand, as the name suggests, smart home automation is ‘automated,’ activating and responding to the environment without your input. For instance, smart control requires you to slide a color wheel on an app or press ‘Evening’ to change the lighting to your preferred color and intensity at night. With home automation, your smart home knows you want your lights transformed to a warm amber after sunset.

At Audio Video Experience, we get to know your lifestyle and preferences and then program your house to respond. This activation may include a change in the environment that sets off a chain reaction. For example, when you pull into the driveway at night, your smart home knows to illuminate the landscape and first-floor lights, unlock the garage door, adjust the climate, open the motorized shades, and turn on the evening news or your favorite music.

From when you wake until you retire, your smart home manages your many devices and systems, ensuring the ideal setting. Are you ready to experience the ultimate luxury known as smart home living?
