Hello! Not so long ago, the international consumer electronics exhibition CES 2013 was held, and many companies showed their innovations, developments, visions of the future and prototypes of devices that, in their opinion, people will use in the near future. And there are companies that brought the technology of tomorrow to today.
One of these technologies - “Smart Home” - was demonstrated by us at CES, and most importantly - all the functionality is present in already commercially available elements, and the approach to system organization and technology management differs from what is already on the market. The main disadvantage of the existing “Smart Home” systems is that in most cases the user is forced to either develop such a complex from scratch himself, selecting components and control modules, or use the services of specialists. ')
Another important fact is that such systems require integration at the very early stage of repair / integration into the existing infrastructure: power management, installation of control cables, device integration into the network and many other factors should be considered before laying tile, wallpapering and paved with parquet flooring.
With our system, the introduction of "smart" components is not difficult at any stage of improvement of your home, and installing, configuring and using such a complex becomes no more difficult to work with a smartphone.
What does LG Smart Home Services consist of (and how it works)?
It is worth starting, perhaps, with communication between devices. It is carried out over wireless channels: NFC, Wi-Fi, 3G / 4G. At the core of the control protocol is the SmartShare standard that has already been proven by time, supporting not only video transmission, but generally any information that can be used by this device.
The second important component is the LG Smart Control application, which allows you to control connected LG home appliances using a smartphone or Smart TV. Synchronization of the “remote” (in the face of a smartphone) with the equipment can also be carried out via NFC, which eliminates the tedious setting and connection in “manual” mode.
After registering a device, it appears in the list of available to control (and monitor) from a smartphone: the time until the end of washing, the temperature of the oven, the contents of the refrigerator (honestly, hardly imagine, is there inside the camera ?!), the current channel, recording transfer, control of the robot vacuum cleaner ... Virtually any information (and function) is accessible from your phone, both on the couch and outside the house. It remains to teach the washing machine to hang out and iron the laundry, and the intelligent trash can - to empty yourself in the right place.
Of course, someone will say that such a system does not allow to control the light or. say, the temperature in the house, but it is not far off: LG air conditioners have long been on the market, and the emergence of Wi-Fi and an intelligent remote control complex in them is a matter of time. As for the intelligent control of the light - as long as the company did not disclose its plans for this matter, so we are waiting for news. In the meantime, we offer you to watch a video presentation of the system with CES:
